Kitchen Remodeling near Western High School
Kitchen remodeling near Western High School in Davie works on a different generation of house than the rest of town, because the school attendance zone runs west of University Drive and the housing inside it went up in the mid nineties and the two thousands. We quote these streets on the same structure as the other eight cities we cover.

West Davie is easier to describe by its school zone than by its subdivision names. Broward County Public Schools draws a closed polygon around Western High and republishes the boundary map every year, and its sides are roads you already drive: I-75 and State Road 84 across the north, University Drive on the east, the C-11 canal along Griffin Road on the south, and Weston Road, Indian Trace and Bonaventure Boulevard on the west. Almost everything inside that line was built later than the Davie average. That is not trivia. It decides whether the kitchen in your house is a replacement job or an update, and those are two different budgets.
What the School Zone Says About Your Kitchen
Davie as a whole has a median construction year of 1988, and Broward County is older still at 1980. Inside this attendance zone the number moves forward. The census tract covering the western half of the boundary reports a median build year of 1996, and the two tracts beside it, around Nob Hill and Flamingo Road, both come in at 1995. The oldest tract in the zone is the one holding the campus itself, at 1986.
The decade breakdown is blunter. That western tract holds 2,488 housing units. Of those, 885 went up between 2000 and 2009 and another 618 during the 1990s, against 440 from the 1970s and 420 from the 1980s. The largest block of housing in this school zone is younger than the century, and the second largest is from the nineties.
That is the opposite of the story in the northeast corner of the same boundary, where the line steps down Pine Island Road. Pine Island Ridge sits inside this zone too, and its streets are a late 1980s build. A kitchen of that age tends to fail as a system, and replacing one piece of it while the rest waits is how people pay twice. A kitchen from 1996 or 2004 is usually nowhere near that point. It works. It is simply the kitchen the builder chose, in the finish that was on the price list that year.
So the job we get called for here is elective, and that changes how we quote it. We ask what has already been done, because a counter swapped in 2012 over the original boxes is a different starting point from a kitchen nobody has opened. We ask what actually bothers you: the storage, the layout, or the way it looks. On a house of this age that answer often points to a smaller job than the one you called about, and we would rather say so at the estimate than sell you the big one.
What none of this changes is what you pay. We quote nine cities on one structure and there is no charge for the drive, so the only thing your address decides here is which permit office reviews the work.
What the Job Costs on a Nineties Kitchen
A full remodel on a kitchen in the twenty one to thirty five linear foot range runs $25,000 to $42,000, which covers most of the houses in this zone. That is the finished job: cabinets, quartz counters, backsplash wall to wall, sink and faucet, hardware, the plumbing and electrical reconnections, installation and finish work. It is priced as one job because it is done as one job.
Time comes in two numbers and they answer different questions. Three to six weeks is the total from signature, and it includes design, selections and the fabrication of the cabinets and the countertop. Two to three weeks is how long there are people working inside your house, which is the number that matters when you are the one living around it.
The gap between the two is a rule: nothing comes out until the cabinets and the countertop are built and in hand. On a kitchen that still works, that rule is worth more than it sounds, because you keep using the room you are replacing right up to the week the crew arrives.
If the scope reaches a wall, the plumbing or the panel, it stops being this job and becomes a layout change, with its own schedule and its own number. You hear that at the estimate, not in week two.
Getting to the Shop from the Western High Zone
From the campus end of the zone, on SW 136 Avenue, the two easy ways east are the two edges of the boundary itself. Griffin Road runs beside the C-11 canal along the south side and goes straight across town to State Road 7, and the shop is just north of where the two meet. I-595 does the same along the north side and is the faster one when Griffin is backed up behind a light. We are at 4491 South State Road 7, suite PH19. Call before you leave and we will tell you which of the two is moving.

Licensed, Insured, and Permitted in Davie
The Town of Davie reviews this work through a Building Division split into structural, electrical, plumbing and mechanical, each with its own chief, and the scope of the job decides which of them see it.

One thing here does not come up anywhere else in Davie. The west edge of this school zone runs along Weston Road, Indian Trace and Bonaventure Boulevard, which are Weston streets, so the office that reviews your plans depends on which side of that line the house sits. We confirm it before the estimate goes out. The work is contracted, executed and invoiced by Gaven Constructions under Florida license CGC1524886, and the two year workmanship warranty on installation labor comes from the same company on the invoice.

Common Questions
What does a kitchen remodel cost in this part of Davie?
The same as the rest of our service area, because we do not keep a price list by neighborhood. A full remodel on a typical twenty one to thirty five linear foot run is $25,000 to $42,000 for the complete job, cabinets through finish. What the school zone changes is not the number, it is the conversation before it. In a 1988 house the question is usually how much of the kitchen has to come out. In a 1996 or 2003 house it is usually how much of it you want to keep, and that answer can move the job down a level instead of up.
Are the houses in the Western High zone newer than the rest of Davie?
Measurably, yes. The census tract covering the western half of the attendance boundary has a median construction year of 1996, and the two tracts beside it come in at 1995, against 1988 for the town of Davie and 1980 for Broward County. In that western tract, 885 of the 2,488 housing units were built between 2000 and 2009 and another 618 during the 1990s. The zone is not uniform, and the tract holding the campus is older at 1986, but the weight of the housing sits later than the town average.
My Davie kitchen from the nineties still works. Is it worth replacing?
Sometimes the honest answer is no, and you should hear that from the person quoting it. If the boxes are sound and the layout suits you, the money goes further on the parts you touch every day: doors and fronts, the counter, the backsplash, the hardware. If the storage is wrong, the cabinet under the sink is swollen, or the room fights you every time two people cook, then replacing it is the job. We measure the run and tell you which of the two you have before there is a price on anything, and that determination is free.
Which building department permits a Davie house on the Weston side of the school zone?
Weston's, if the address is in Weston. The west edge of the attendance boundary runs along Weston Road, Indian Trace and Bonaventure Boulevard, so the school zone and the town line are not the same line, and Weston runs its own building department separate from Davie's. The district says on the map itself that it is conceptual and not for legal boundary determinations, so we do not guess from it. We confirm the permitting jurisdiction for your address before the estimate goes out. The price is the same either way: Weston is one of the nine cities we already cover on one structure.
How long is a Davie kitchen out of service during the remodel?
Two to three weeks inside the house, against three to six weeks total from the day you sign. The two numbers sit that far apart on purpose. Cabinets and countertops are ordered and fabricated first, and nothing is demolished until they are built and in hand, so most of the waiting happens while you still have a working kitchen. In this zone that is usually the whole point, because the kitchen you are replacing is still doing its job. If the scope grows to a wall, the plumbing or the panel, the schedule grows with it and you hear that before you sign.
