What a Lannon Kitchen Remodel Involves
A Lannon kitchen remodel costs $30,000 to $75,000 and takes one to six weeks. This is a small village of modest houses, and most kitchens here are galley or L-shaped and under a hundred and twenty square feet. What decides the result is clearance and storage per linear foot, not floor area.
Permits filed
Two or three
A Lannon kitchen remodel takes building and electrical permits as standard, plus plumbing once a fixture moves. The Village of Lannon issues them; addresses just outside permit through the Town of Lisbon or Menomonee Falls.
Our base
14 miles south
985 Georges Avenue in Brookfield. The crew loads out there each morning and runs up Lannon Road, so travel never comes out of build time.
Room size
Usually compact
Under a hundred and twenty square feet is normal here. Aisle width and reach distances decide whether the room works, long before finishes do.
Our Lannon scope
What T And J Builds in Lannon Kitchens
T And J builds every part of a Lannon kitchen: layout and clearances, cabinetry, stone, electrical, ventilation, flooring and final fit-out. One crew, one contract, one point of contact.
Clearances
Aisle widths that actually work
A galley kitchen needs 42 inches between opposing runs for one cook and 48 for two. Below 36 a dishwasher door blocks the room entirely. In a Lannon kitchen those numbers usually decide whether both sides get full-depth cabinetry or one side goes shallow.
One cook
42 in between runs
Two cooks
48 in between runs
Below 36 in
One run goes shallow
Storage
Getting more out of each linear foot
In a compact kitchen the measure that matters is storage per foot of run. Drawers hold roughly a third more usable volume than a cupboard of the same size, because nothing gets lost at the back, and a 150 mm pull-out beside the range does the work of a cupboard twice its width.
Drawers
About a third more usable volume
Pull-outs
150 mm gaps put to work
Height
Cabinetry carried to the ceiling
Worktops
Countertop and run lengths
With limited run, the worktop has to do several jobs in the same metre. A grooved drainer in the stone replaces a separate drainer, a single deep bowl beats a divided one, and a chopping surface let into the slab beside the hob buys back preparation space nothing else will.

Full rebuild
Studs-out kitchen rebuild
A studs-out rebuild in a Lannon house uncovers the usual mid-century picture: one circuit doing the work of three, a vent that stops in the wall cavity, and a sink waste running at barely any fall to reach the stack.

Openings
Opening a galley to the next room
Where the budget allows one structural change, taking out the wall between a galley kitchen and the dining room is usually the one worth making. A pass-through with a worktop keeps the wall’s support and still opens the room; a full opening needs a header sized to the span.
Pass-through
Keeps support, opens sightlines

Peninsula
Worktop added on the new edge
Fit-out
Floors, lights and appliances
Compact appliances buy back run length: a 600 mm range, a slimline dishwasher, an integrated fridge. Lighting goes under the cabinets and into the ceiling rather than on a pendant that hangs into a narrow aisle.
Floors
Continuous, no threshold strips
Lights
Recessed and under-cabinet

Worktops and cabinets
Which Surfaces Suit a Lannon Kitchen?
With a short run, the worktop has to work harder per foot and the room has to stay light.
Engineered quartz
Takes a grooved drainer and an inset chopping surface. Never sealed.
Quartzite
Pale and hard-wearing where every inch is a working inch.
Natural granite
Quieter patterns only; heavy movement crowds a compact room.
Butcher block
Warm on a short return, and a chopping surface in its own right.
Slab fronts
Integrated handles keep a 42 inch aisle genuinely 42 inches.
Shaker fronts
Correct in a mid-century village house, in paint.
Deep drawers
About a third more usable volume than a cupboard the same size.
Ceiling-height runs
The cheapest extra tier of storage available in a small kitchen.

Ranches and capes with a galley kitchen and a separate dining room.

The build
How a Lannon Kitchen Build Runs
A full Lannon kitchen runs four to six weeks plus permit time. Compact rooms come apart quickly and go back together in a tight sequence, because only one trade fits at a time.

Measure aisles and reach distances
The kitchen is measured across the aisle as well as along the run, because clearance decides whether both sides can take full-depth cabinetry before anything else is settled.

Common questions
Lannon Kitchen Remodeling FAQ
Questions about a specific Lannon kitchen are answered on the phone: (262) 352-9525.
What does a kitchen remodel cost in Lannon?
A Lannon kitchen remodel costs $30,000 to $75,000. A surface update in the existing footprint sits near $30,000. A replanned rebuild with corrected clearances, deep drawer banks and stone runs $40,000 to $60,000. Studs-out work with a wall opened on a header starts around $75,000. Compact rooms take less cabinetry, so the band is lower here, and the figure is fixed in writing before demolition.
How wide does a galley kitchen aisle need to be?
Forty-two inches between opposing runs for one cook, forty-eight if two people work in there regularly. Below thirty-six inches a dishwasher or oven door blocks the room completely. Where the house cannot give forty-two, one run goes shallow — fifteen inches instead of twenty-four — which keeps the aisle usable and still carries a full run of storage above it.
Is it worth opening the wall to the dining room?
In most Lannon houses it is the single change worth making. A galley with a wall on one long side stays a corridor no matter what goes in it. Two options: a pass-through with a worktop, which keeps the wall’s support and still opens the sightline, or a full opening on a header sized to the span. The first is cheaper and often enough; the second changes how the house lives.
Do drawers really hold more than cupboards?
Yes, by roughly a third in usable terms. A cupboard with a shelf loses the back third to things nobody can see, and the bottom to things nobody can reach. A drawer brings the whole contents out at once, so every cubic inch is reachable. In a kitchen this size that difference is the equivalent of adding two extra cabinets without adding a foot of run.
How long is a Lannon kitchen out of use?
Three to five weeks. Compact rooms strip out fast, but only one trade fits in the room at a time, so the sequence is tighter rather than shorter. Counters are templated once boxes are level and fixed, adding ten to fourteen days for fabrication regardless of room size, then floors, paint and the snag list close it out.
Can both sides of a galley take full-depth cabinets?
Only if the room is wide enough. Two runs of twenty-four inch cabinetry plus a forty-two inch aisle needs ninety inches wall to wall. Many Lannon kitchens are narrower than that, so one run goes to fifteen or eighteen inches deep. That shallow side still takes full-height cabinetry, a slim appliance and a worktop for landing space, and the room becomes usable rather than a squeeze.
Am I in the Village of Lannon or the Town of Lisbon?
All three are possible. The Village of Lannon, the Town of Lisbon and the Village of Menomonee Falls each cover parts of the area and each permits separately. A Lannon mailing address does not settle it, and fees and review times differ, so the parcel is checked before a quote is written rather than after the job is sold.
Which communities near Lannon are covered?
Sussex, Menomonee Falls, Butler and Lisbon sit around Lannon, with Brookfield, Elm Grove and Wauwatosa south, and Pewaukee, Hartland and Waukesha west. One crew covers all of them from the Brookfield yard.
