For fastest and best experience, we recommend that you call us directly, 913 642 3337, or come to our Design showroom, conveniently located on 87th Street across from Louisburg Square. (appointments encouraged, not required of course.) Yes we are full service licensed general contractors for Johnson County, but foremost we are about great design! Our showroom is where we start with ideas, and then we follow up with home appointments. Who are we exactly? We’re your kitchen's all-in-one full service remodeling answer for peace of mind. Kitchen remodeling is complex because many diverse skills must come together, correctly and without slippage. At Armstrong Kitchens we combine our wide range of abilities and experience for your best outcome, and we’ve had many decades to pull it all together. We are unique in being all of the following: -Interior Designers: each designer has a degree in Interior Design and is highly experienced, to make sure your new update looks like you want it to, and so that it fits well into your home. -NKBA Kitchen & Bath Designers: each designer is fully trained and NKBA accredited, to handle the specification complexities and minute technical details of all the products you will need. -Licensed General Contractor: We make sure your wonderful new room comes together the way its supposed to, by putting it together ourselves. We are not only licensed for General Contracting, but also Electrical & Mechanical and lead paint abatement. Like the old saying goes “If you want something done right…” In our 72 year history as a multi-generational family business, this has been the proven recipe for success.

"Look no further! Our kitchen remodel was top to bottom and even included tear-out of ceiling soffits. From the start: Pricing was competitive with an easy to understand estimate. Classic or trendy, Kristeen teaches at a local college and knows what’s out there and what we could expect. Communication was easy and prompt. Everyone was GREAT to work with and the job was completed ON TIME. They go ABOVE & BEYOND! Over a year after we were done our “Smart” faucet motor went out. At no charge, father and son came out and switched it out for us. We have done our share of remodeling and wish we had found them sooner. I LOVE my kitchen!"

For 30 plus years, our lead foreman has been laying brick. We're privileged to have Randy, who built one of the very first paver driveway jobs in Kansas City before outdoor hardscape was on the map. And he taught the owner of Outlook Hardscape everything he knows. The care and craftsmanship Matt, Randy and their crews put into our hardscape has been something they've done for decades together. Our competitive price matches the quality of product you will receive as we pride ourselves in doing it right the first time. And our Angie's List members boast of our friendly crews and clean work sites. We not only want you to relax during the process but help you relax after a long day at work, coming home to your new outdoor oasis. Let us help you design beauty and comfort with our quality hardscape. We look forward to meeting you.

"Fair bid, excellent work."

"Billy work great with us, providing a unique front landscape design for our newly constructed home. He was very flexible incorporating our thoughts on our plants along with his design. He and his crew completed the landscape, rain gutter drainage pipe to keep water away from the house and did a complete lawn irrigation system using the lake water for supply. He worked jointly with us and our neighbor for some joint water drainage. We have had numerous people asking who did our landscaping as it has good curb appeal. We have Paradise open and close our irrigation system and they are now doing 5 of our neighbors too. I would highly recommend Paradise Landscape."

Second story addition building services FAQs

For many homeowners, building up is worth the expense because it provides the extra bedrooms or living areas that can’t be accommodated within the existing footprint. A larger, updated home often commands a higher resale price, recouping a sizable share of the project cost while allowing you to stay in the neighborhood you love. Run the numbers with a real estate agent and contractor to ensure the expected return and day-to-day benefits align with your goals.

Whether it makes more sense to build up or out depends on your lot, budget, and local code. Building up preserves yard space and involves less foundation work, but you may need to vacate the home during construction. Building out avoids staircases and can proceed while you stay put; however, it encroaches on the yard and may face setback limits. Compare both options with your contractor before making a decision.

A structural engineer will first inspect the existing foundation for cracks, footings, and load capacity. Depending on the findings, the crew may pour new concrete footings, install steel or concrete piers, add reinforced beams, or tie additional rebar into the slab. These upgrades redistribute the weight of the new floor and bring the structure up to code. Your contractor will outline the specific reinforcement plan and timeline once the engineering report is complete.
