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!"

Interior design and decorating services FAQs

Most interior designers have at least a four-year degree, if not an advanced degree in interior design. Additionally, many states require interior designers to be licensed. If your state does not require licensing, interior designers can take a licensing exam with the National Council of Interior Design Qualification (NCIDQ). Overall, licensing requirements vary from state to state, but most licenses require certain education levels and experience to qualify. To check the qualifications of your interior designer, use Angi’s state licensing tool.

The difference between an interior designer and an interior decorator is that the interior decorator focuses on the space’s colors, furniture, art, and finishes. An interior designer goes beyond that to plan and execute layouts, structural changes, and overall functionality in addition to aesthetics that the decorator manages. We recommend hiring an interior designer for major remodeling projects and hiring an interior decorator to establish or enhance your home’s interior style.

On average, hiring an interior designer costs about $8,200, ranging from $200 to $65,000, depending on where you live, the size of your home, and the type of decor. The total price tag of interior design services is based on whether they provide consultation and implementation as well as any specialty design services, such as home staging or digital design mock-ups. Residential interior designers typically charge an hourly rate of $50 to $200 per hour, or up to $500 per hour in areas with high demand.

Hiring an interior designer is often worth the investment, especially for larger projects beyond DIY interior design and project management skills. However, the decision to hire an interior designer depends on your budget and the size of the project. Some benefits of hiring an interior designer include:

  • Realizing the best layout and decor for optimal functionality of the space for your taste, budget, and lifestyle

  • Managing your project to keep the job on track and within budget

  • Assistance with home staging ahead of home sale

  • Serving as a point of contact for contractors

  • Accessing discounts from local suppliers

Before hiring an interior designer, ask a few questions to better understand how they work, what’s expected of you, and what they promise to deliver.

  • How long will the project take to complete?

  • What type of services do you offer?

  • Can you provide a project estimate?

  • Do you work with subcontractors?

  • Are you licensed or certified in this state?

  • Do you have a portfolio of previous work I can review?

  • May I contact your customer references?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • How do you handle payment?
