Make the difference between a refresh and a renovation visible
Create a keep, remove and investigate list for the room. Photograph trim, flooring, openings and other details you want the finished kitchen to work around. Ask your project professional to evaluate any proposed wall or doorway change before treating it as a cabinet-layout decision.
If the design affects a window, exterior vent or other building feature, add the relevant approval question to the plan. Distinguish necessary repair work from optional changes, and make sure the contractor’s written scope describes both without blending their costs.
Choose the renovation category by the work involved
New Orleans’ One Stop application catalog distinguishes structural and non-structural renovation work and separately identifies change of use without construction. Review the actual work with Safety and Permits rather than selecting a category from the appearance of the finished kitchen.
The New Orleans metropolitan area includes communities outside city jurisdiction, including Metairie. Confirm the responsible local authority for the address. Ask about any additional property-specific reviews; selecting a renovation application does not itself establish that every necessary approval has been obtained.

Price retained details and new products together
Match cabinet construction, finish, hardware and accessories, then identify the labor needed to connect the new work to retained flooring, trim and wall finishes. Ask whether decorative panels, fillers and custom fitting are included. Show structural allowances separately from product costs.
Add removal, disposal, delivery, countertop fabrication, installation, applicable taxes and membership for the period compared. If one quote preserves existing details and another replaces them, explain that difference in writing. The lowest cabinet subtotal may not represent the same completed renovation.
Explore materials in person
Ask HIBC about showroom options near your project in New Orleans area. Share your city, state and product interests so visit arrangements and availability can be confirmed separately. Our service begins online.
Can I compare structural and non-structural alternatives?
Yes. Keep them as separate scopes, with professional feasibility and approval questions clearly marked. A free review can organize the options but does not provide structural design or permit approval.
Review and membership costs
Requesting an initial kitchen review is free and does not enroll you. Gold membership is a separate purchase: $4,995 initial enrollment includes Year 1, with $495 annual continuation beginning in Year 2 under the checkout terms. Detailed complimentary kitchen design is a Gold membership benefit. Include membership when comparing complete project costs.
Start with your project
Share your project city and state, current kitchen photos and the decisions you want to compare. Qualified project professionals must verify final measurements, construction feasibility, code requirements and installation. Any showroom option requires separate confirmation.
