Remodeling on Gainesville's West Side

Kitchen Remodeling in Jonesville is part of the story of a fast-changing area. Jonesville has no city government; it is an informal name for the stretch of Newberry Road (State Road 26) between Gainesville and Newberry, centered near County Road 241. Over the past 40 years, people moving west from Gainesville have filled it in with subdivisions, and commercial building around the Steeple Chase shopping plaza picked up quickly in the 2010s.

Which side of 122nd Street are you on?

This is the first question for any permitted kitchen job here. The eastern edge of Jonesville is 122nd Street, also called Parker Road, since the City of Gainesville owns land on that side. Homes just a short drive apart can fall under different rules: one inside the city, the other in unincorporated Alachua County. Before we pull a permit for electrical, plumbing or structural work, we check which jurisdiction covers your parcel, so there are no delays after demolition starts.

Open-concept upgrades

Many west-side homes have kitchens that are walled off from the living area or squeezed into a corner. The most common changes we discuss:

  • Removing or shortening a wall to connect kitchen and family room
  • Adding an island with seating, storage and sometimes a prep sink
  • Moving the range to an outside wall so the hood can vent straight out
  • Replacing a pantry closet with a full-height pantry cabinet
  • Widening a doorway to improve traffic flow

Before any wall comes down, we find out whether it is load-bearing and price a beam if it is.

Finishes that hold up

Quartz counters are the go-to for families who want low maintenance. Shaker cabinets in white, gray or wood tones stay in style. For floors, luxury vinyl plank that runs continuously from kitchen into living space makes an opened room feel larger and handles spills well. Backsplash options range from simple subway tile to full-height slab behind the range.

Humidity is part of every plan

Alachua County summers are hot and humid. A kitchen that is opened to the living room shares its air with the rest of the house, so we size and duct the range hood to the outdoors to keep cooking moisture and odors from spreading. Sink bases get moisture-resistant construction and sealed edges.

A community with deep roots

The name traces back to John Joseph Jones, an Alabama farmer who settled on the old Newnansville Road in the early 1850s and became the first postmaster when a post office opened in 1875. Today the farmland has given way to neighborhoods, but the Newberry Road corridor still ties it to Gainesville.

What it will cost

Opening a wall and adding an island depends heavily on whether the wall is load-bearing and what has to be rerouted. Cosmetic updates cost less, and full remodels with new cabinets and quartz cost more. Our service pages list published national cost ranges, and we price your kitchen in writing after checking the walls.

Jonesville Details

  • No city government. Jonesville is an unincorporated community in Alachua County, an informal name for the area along Newberry Road (SR 26) between Gainesville and Newberry, roughly at County Road 241.
  • A boundary at 122nd Street. Jonesville's eastern edge is generally considered to be 122nd Street (Parker Road), since the City of Gainesville owns land on that side. Homes near that line may fall under different permit offices.
  • Decades of westward growth. Jonesville's population has grown over the past 40 years as residents moved west from Gainesville, and commercial development around the Steeple Chase shopping plaza increased rapidly in the 2010s.

Jonesville Questions

Is my Jonesville home in the City of Gainesville or Alachua County?

It depends on your parcel. Jonesville itself is unincorporated, but its eastern edge at 122nd Street is generally treated as the line where City of Gainesville land begins. We confirm the jurisdiction before filing any permit.

Can you take out the wall between my kitchen and living room?

Usually. If the wall is not load-bearing, removal is fairly simple. If it is, we install a properly sized beam, which adds cost and requires a permit. We also check for wiring, plumbing or ductwork inside the wall before quoting.

How long does an open-concept kitchen remodel take?

A wall removal with an island and new counters often takes several weeks once materials are on hand, plus time for permits and inspections. Cosmetic updates are much faster.

Do you work in Jonesville and Newberry as well as Gainesville?

Yes. Jonesville sits on Newberry Road between Gainesville and Newberry, right in the area we cover, so scheduling a site visit is easy.
