Yes, we work in the Town of Orchid, the small gated town that sits on the barrier island a short drive north of the Wabasso Causeway. The drive takes about 35 minutes, or 28 miles, north on I-95 or US-1 to CR-510 and over the causeway to SR-A1A.
With only 516 residents in 2020, Orchid is a town in its own right, and nearly all of it is built around the Orchid Island Golf & Beach Club. The homes are high-end custom builds, so the work here is less about replacing builder tops and more about refining a kitchen or bath that was finished to a high standard the first time.
Earning Trust in a Gated Town Without Name-Dropping
In a town this size, word of mouth carries weight, and we have no Orchid projects to point to. What we can offer is how we work: a family-run shop with the owner involved from measurement to install, written estimates, careful protection of floors and finishes, and 4.9 stars from 31 people who reviewed us on Google. One wrote that the installer “took great care to ensure everything was perfect.”
Neighbors we also serve include Wabasso Beach, Indian River Shores and, on the mainland, Wabasso.

Services Orchid Homeowners Ask Us For Most
Marble Countertops
Marble suits Orchid's custom baths and islands where owners want genuine stone and accept its patina, with veining laid out on the slab before a single cut.
Learn more →
Quartz Countertops
Marble-look quartz gives seasonal Orchid owners a white veined kitchen without a sealing routine, a practical choice for a house that sits closed for half the year.

Bathroom Remodeling
Primary baths in older Orchid custom homes are often redone with new stone vanities and showers, finished to the same standard as the rest of the house.
Learn more →
Kitchen Remodeling
Kitchen updates coordinate stone, cabinetry and appliances so they match the quality found elsewhere in the house, scheduled around the club's contractor calendar and the owners' travel.

Quartzite Countertops
Quartzite offers natural veining with greater hardness for kitchens that see regular entertaining, from a busy island to a bar area off the great room.

Marble Polishing
Original marble in an older Orchid custom home can often be honed or polished back rather than replaced, when dull etch marks are the main complaint.

Orchid's homes sit within a single gated community that runs from the ocean to the lagoon, with golf and beach club amenities at its center. Kitchens are usually custom, often with large islands, butler's pantries and bar areas, and bathrooms are finished in natural stone. Many owners are seasonal and prefer to plan updates for the months they are away.
Updates here typically mean changing the style of an older custom kitchen, for example from polished brown granite to white marble or a marble-look quartz, or replacing a primary bath vanity and shower walls. Because the surrounding finishes are high quality, the details matter: edge profiles that suit the existing cabinetry, seams placed out of sight lines, and veining laid out to run across an island. On the barrier island, salt air and humidity keep natural stone on a sealing schedule.
High-end finishes still face island weather. Nicole's November 2022 landfall south of Vero Beach reached this coast late in the season, so we keep template and install close together and avoid leaving an island half-finished while owners are away.
North of the Wabasso Causeway: Orchid Town Hall, Utilities and Club Rules
Every visit starts on CR-510, crosses the lagoon on the Wabasso Causeway and turns north on SR-A1A for a short run to the town's gate. The town stretches from the Atlantic to the lagoon, so some homes face the ocean and others the river side.
Town business is handled at town hall, 9301 Highway A1A, open weekdays (Town of Orchid). Permits go through the town's own building department, and its Ordinance No. 2025-02 clarifies how building permits are tolled and extended after a declared natural disaster, useful to know if a storm interrupts a remodel.
Water comes from Indian River County Utilities, which serves the town (Vero Beach 32963, 2013), and power from FPL. The club's own rules on hours, vehicles and seasons sit on top of the town's. Typical updates: a brown granite kitchen turned white marble or quartz, a primary bath in stone, and refreshed original marble.
Through the Gate at Orchid: Club Rules, Town Permits and Timing
We reach Orchid by the Wabasso Causeway and a short run on SR-A1A. Because the whole town is gated, each visit needs gate clearance, and the community's rules on contractor hours, vehicles and seasons govern the schedule, so share them early. Victor handles the first visit and the slab approvals, and for owners away for the season we can measure while you are here and finish while you are gone.
Orchid is its own incorporated town, so permit questions start with the Town of Orchid rather than the county. Stone on existing cabinets generally needs no permit; plumbing, electrical and structural changes do, and that work goes to licensed trades. Club architectural approval may be needed as well.

Orchid Kitchen Remodeling FAQs
Can you update an Orchid kitchen while we are away for the season?
Yes. We measure and review stone with you while you are in Orchid, confirm the plan in a written estimate, and then template and install during your absence with access arranged through you or your home watch service. The community's gate and contractor rules set the working days, so we build the schedule around them.
Do Orchid homes need town or county permits?
Town. Orchid is an incorporated municipality, so permit questions for work within it start with the Town of Orchid, not Indian River County. Most stone countertop and vanity replacements on existing cabinets need no permit. Plumbing, electrical or structural changes do, and the club may also require architectural approval.
How do you match a new island to existing custom cabinetry in Orchid?
We look closely at the existing door style, finish and hardware, then choose an edge profile and stone that suit them. A thicker mitered edge can echo heavy cabinetry, while a simple eased edge suits flat panels. We plan seams away from sight lines and lay out veining across the island on the actual slab before cutting.
