About Salt and Cedar Home Remodeling

A locally owned Nashville remodeling company, led by kitchens, where the person you meet is the person who runs your project.

Salt and Cedar Home Remodeling is a locally owned interior remodeling company in Nashville, TN. Kitchens are the heart of the business: full kitchen remodels, cabinets, countertops as part of a kitchen, backsplash and flooring. We also take on bathrooms, basement finishing and laundry rooms.

Alec does the work and runs each project himself, from the first visit to the final walkthrough. That means one point of contact. You do not get passed from a salesperson to a project manager to a crew you have never met. The person who looks at your kitchen and talks through the plan is the person responsible for getting it built.

Salt and Cedar is a new company, and we would rather tell you that plainly than dress it up. What we offer is focus: each project is run closely by the person who planned it.

How Alec Learned the Trade

Alec learned remodeling by building kitchens alongside an experienced remodeler. That meant learning the whole job, not one piece of it: tearing out old cabinets, fixing what turns up behind them, setting new cabinets level and square, working around counters, laying tile and getting the finish details right.

From there he went on to run projects on his own from start to finish. Running a project is its own skill. It means planning the order of the work, ordering the right materials at the right time, bringing in other trades when the job needs them, and keeping the homeowner in the loop the whole way. Salt and Cedar is built around doing both: the hands-on work and the running of the job.

How Alec Works

Planning before anything is ordered

Most remodeling problems start with a decision made too late. A cabinet that blocks a window, a backsplash tile that does not work with the counter, a floor ordered before the cabinet layout was settled. Alec helps you with the layout, the cabinets and the finishes before anything is ordered, so the pieces fit together on paper before they arrive at your door.

One point of contact

You will have Alec's number, and he is the one you talk to about schedule, choices and questions. When other trades are needed, such as a plumber for bathroom plumbing, Alec brings them in and plans the work around them. You are not left coordinating people yourself.

Honest about what is behind the walls

Older kitchens and bathrooms sometimes hide surprises. Alec looks for signs of trouble on the first visit and tells you what he sees, so you know where the unknowns are before work starts.

A free written estimate and a schedule

You get a free written estimate that lists what is included, and a schedule based on your actual project. We do not quote prices or timelines over the phone, because every room is different.

What We Take On

Kitchens first

Kitchens are most of what we do. That includes full kitchen remodeling, kitchen cabinets, countertops as part of a kitchen, a kitchen backsplash and kitchen flooring. Whether you want a new layout or new surfaces on the layout you have, the planning starts the same way.

Other rooms

The same skills carry into other rooms. We do bathroom remodeling, with plumbing handled by a plumber Alec brings in, basement finishing, starting with a check for moisture, and laundry room remodeling, which uses the same cabinet, counter and tile work as a kitchen on a smaller footprint.

Who we work with

We work with homeowners who want to improve the home they live in. If you are planning a project and want one person who will plan it with you and see it through, we would like to hear about it.

Where We Work

Salt and Cedar is based in Nashville and works across greater Nashville. That includes Nashville itself, Brentwood, Franklin, Hendersonville, Mt. Juliet and Nolensville, along with Hermitage and Bellevue. See every area on the service areas page.
