Kitchen & Bath Remodeling
in San Marco — Honoring Jacksonville's Most Iconic Neighborhood.
San Marco is the neighborhood people picture when they imagine the best of Jacksonville. The lion statues. The Square. The tree-canopied streets lined with 1920s Mediterranean Revivals and Craftsman bungalows. Walking to Taverna for dinner or grabbing coffee at Southern Grounds. San Marco has character that new construction simply cannot replicate — and remodeling here requires a contractor who respects that character while bringing homes into the modern era.
TB Construction has remodeled kitchens and bathrooms throughout San Marco — Alexandria Place, Granada, Miramar, and along the streets radiating from San Marco Square. We understand the challenge: these homes have original archways, built-in details, plaster walls, and layouts that reflect a different era. The goal isn't to erase that history — it's to build a modern kitchen or bathroom that feels like it belongs.
Kitchen Remodeling — San Marco
A San Marco kitchen remodel is a balancing act. You want modern functionality — soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, proper task lighting, a functional layout — without making a 1926 Mediterranean home look like it swallowed an IKEA showroom. We design transitional kitchens that bridge the gap: inset cabinet doors that echo the home's original millwork, countertop edges that complement existing trim profiles, and hardware that looks like it could have been original.
Many San Marco kitchens are smaller by modern standards. We open them up thoughtfully — removing walls where structural analysis allows, adding islands or peninsulas where space permits, and using sight lines and lighting to create the feeling of space.

San Marco bathrooms often have original hex tile, cast iron tubs, and pedestal sinks. Some are worth preserving. Others need a complete overhaul. We work with homeowners to determine what stays, what goes, and what gets reimagined. A clawfoot tub refinish with new fixtures? Beautiful. A full master bath renovation with a walk-in shower and custom tile? Also beautiful. We do both.

Many San Marco homes have original hardwood under carpet or laminate. We assess what's there and whether it's salvageable. Refinishing original heart pine or oak floors is always our first recommendation — it honors the home and looks incredible. When replacement is needed, we install engineered hardwood that matches the home's era and character.

FAQ.
That's exactly what we do. We design kitchens that feel like a natural evolution of the home, not a modern box dropped into a historic shell. We preserve original details where possible and match new elements to the home's architectural style.
Some San Marco homes fall within the San Marco Historic District and may be subject to overlay zone requirements. We're familiar with Jacksonville's historic preservation guidelines and will advise you on what applies to your property.
Absolutely. We're experienced working with plaster and lath construction. We can repair, match, and work around plaster walls — and we know when drywall patches are appropriate and when they're not.
