#480 The Team Who Guarantees a 7-Day $80K Kitchen Remodel (7 Day Kitchens)

In this episode of the Contractor Growth Network Podcast, Logan sits down with Barry Gant and Änd Lynn from Seven Day Kitchens to unpack one of the most unusual remodeling business models in the industry: a full kitchen remodel completed in seven days or less.

From the outside, it sounds impossible. Most kitchen remodels take 8–12 weeks and leave homeowners living in a construction zone the entire time.

But Barry explains how their company achieves the seven-day timeline—not through shortcuts, prefab materials, or cosmetic updates—but through extreme planning, specialized teams, and eliminating the downtime between trades that typically drags projects out for months.

The conversation dives into the operational shifts required to make this work, how they built buy-in from subcontractors, why niching into one type of project changed the entire business, and why the seven-day promise has become such a powerful differentiator in their market.

If you’ve ever wondered what remodeling would look like if the entire process were redesigned around speed, systems, and specialization, this episode is a fascinating look inside a radically different approach to construction.
