Most Austin galley kitchen remodels run $25,000–$60,000 — roughly $150–$250 per square foot. Galley kitchens are often smaller, so a full refresh can land at the lower end; relocating plumbing or opening a wall pushes it up.

A galley runs two counters facing each other, so the wins come from storage and flow, not extra footprint. We focus on full-height cabinets, deep drawers over doors, a durable counter run, better task lighting, and keeping the walkway clear.
If your galley feels dark or closed-in, opening one end to the dining or living area is often the single biggest upgrade — we handle the framing, electrical, and finish.
Cabinets (custom or stock), countertops, backsplash and tile, sink and faucet, appliances, lighting and electrical, flooring, and any wall or plumbing changes — permitted through the City of Austin and finished on a set schedule.
Bailey & Bear is a licensed, insured Austin remodeler with 27 kitchen projects and a 5.0-star rating across 56 reviews.

Straight answers
Most Austin galley kitchen remodels run $25,000–$60,000, or about $150–$250 per square foot. Because galley kitchens tend to be smaller, a straightforward refresh often lands at the lower end; opening a wall or moving plumbing raises the cost. Bailey & Bear gives a free exact quote.
Yes. Opening one end of a galley kitchen to the adjacent room is one of the most effective upgrades. We handle the framing, electrical, and finish work, and pull any required City of Austin permits.
A typical galley kitchen remodel takes about 3–6 weeks depending on scope and whether walls or plumbing move. We give you a firm schedule before we start.
