Commercial Kitchen Design FAQs
When should I involve a kitchen design team in my project?
The best time to involve a kitchen design team is at the start of your project, during the restaurant space planning kickoff. Working with a professional team early in the commercial kitchen design process minimizes layout inefficiencies, delays due to long lead times, and costly construction errors.
Do you handle commercial kitchen construction?
No, we don’t handle full construction. We coordinate with contractors and trades teams to ensure that your commercial kitchen installation is completed correctly and in accordance with all design specifications
Do you help with health code, ventilation, and compliance requirements?
Yes. We ensure your restaurant kitchen layout, equipment placement, ventilation, and workflow meet all required health, safety, and mechanical codes so your design is compliant before permitting even begins.
Can you help with restaurant permitting?
Yes. One of the key components of our design process is preparing the drawings, equipment specifications, and technical documents needed for municipal permitting and coordinating with relevant departments to support a smooth approval process.
Do you provide commercial kitchen renovation services?
We support both new builds and renovations, from major industrial kitchen design projects to front-of-house restaurant interior design upgrades.
Can you help if I've already purchased the equipment?
Yes. We can incorporate your existing equipment into your restaurant layout design, ensure its proper placement, utility coordination, ventilation requirements, and workflow optimization. If gaps exist, we’ll recommend complementary equipment to complete your kitchen space.
Can you help with tight spaces or small footprints?
Absolutely. Our team specializes in space-efficient restaurant design and commercial kitchen layouts, creating smart zoning, vertical storage solutions, and compact equipment that maximizes functionality and workflow.
