Complete Kitchen Renovation
Full Kitchen Renovation & Remodeling in Northern New Jersey
TopLine handles the entire kitchen renovation — from demolition and substrate prep to custom tile backsplash, new flooring, and every finish detail. One contractor, one standard of quality, start to finish.
A Kitchen Renovation Done Right — From Demo to Done
Most kitchen remodels involve a parade of contractors — a demo crew, a tile guy, a flooring installer, someone to handle the finishing. At TopLine, we manage the entire kitchen renovation under one roof. That means tighter coordination, cleaner results, and a single point of accountability from the first day of demolition to the final grout seal. We bring the same precision that built our reputation in custom showers to every kitchen we renovate — proper substrate preparation, industry-leading waterproofing behind backsplash tile, level floors with no lippage, and finish work that holds up for decades. Whether you're doing a full gut renovation or updating the tile and surfaces, we're the team Northern New Jersey homeowners call when they want it done right.
What We Handle in a Kitchen Renovation
From the first swing of the demo hammer to the final grout seal — we manage the full scope.
Full Kitchen Gut & Demo
We handle complete kitchen demolition — removing existing tile, flooring, and surfaces down to the substrate. Proper demo sets the stage for a lasting renovation; we do it carefully and clean up thoroughly.
Substrate Preparation & Waterproofing
Before any new tile goes down, we assess and correct the substrate. Behind backsplash tile and in wet areas, we install waterproofing membranes that protect your walls and cabinets from moisture damage.
Custom Tile Backsplash Installation
Subway tile, mosaic, herringbone, stacked, Zellige, and full-wall backsplashes. We handle range hood surrounds, outlet cutouts, and every precision detail that makes a backsplash look intentional and professional.
Kitchen Floor Tile Installation
Porcelain, ceramic, natural stone, and large-format tile flooring. We level the subfloor, use the correct thinset for your tile type, and install with consistent spacing and zero lippage.
Natural Stone & Premium Tile
Marble, quartzite, travertine, and designer tile for kitchens that demand a higher standard. We handle the sealing, the precision cuts, and the pattern work that premium materials require.
Grouting, Sealing & Finishing
The right grout color, joint width, and sealer make the difference between a renovation that looks great for a year and one that looks great for twenty. We finish every project to a professional standard.
Two Services That Define a Kitchen Renovation
The backsplash and the floor are the two surfaces that set the tone for the entire kitchen. Here's how we approach each one.
Custom Kitchen Backsplash Installation
The backsplash is the focal point of any kitchen renovation — it's the surface everyone sees first, and the one that ties the whole design together. TopLine installs every style of kitchen backsplash tile: classic subway tile in brick or stacked patterns, full-height slab backsplashes, intricate mosaic and glass tile, Zellige and handmade tile, herringbone and chevron layouts, and custom pattern work around range hoods and windows. Every backsplash installation starts with proper wall prep and waterproofing — because a beautiful backsplash that lets moisture reach your drywall is a problem waiting to happen. We cut tile precisely at outlets, switches, and cabinet edges, maintain consistent grout joints throughout, and seal every surface for long-term protection.
- Subway, mosaic, herringbone, Zellige, and full-wall designs
- Waterproofing membrane behind all backsplash tile
- Precision cuts at outlets, switches, and cabinet edges
- Range hood surrounds and accent tile installations
- Sealed grout joints for stain and moisture resistance
Kitchen Floor Tile Installation
Kitchen floors take more abuse than almost any other surface in the home — foot traffic, dropped items, spills, and the weight of appliances. Getting the installation right means starting with a properly leveled and prepared subfloor, using the correct thinset mortar for the tile type, and installing with consistent spacing and zero lippage across the entire floor. TopLine installs all types of kitchen floor tile: large-format porcelain slabs (24x24, 24x48, and larger), classic ceramic tile, natural stone including marble and travertine, wood-look porcelain plank, and decorative patterned tile. We handle transitions to adjacent flooring, threshold work at doorways, and the precise cuts around cabinets and island bases that separate a professional installation from an amateur one.
- Large-format porcelain, ceramic, natural stone, and wood-look plank
- Subfloor leveling and preparation before any tile is set
- Zero lippage across the entire floor surface
- Precision cuts around cabinets, islands, and appliances
- Transitions and thresholds to adjacent flooring
