Built high, grown by rail and a textile mill
The county seat moved to Lexington's high sandy ridge in 1820, away from flood-prone Granby; the town incorporated in 1861, the Columbia to Augusta Railroad reached it in 1869, and the Lexington Manufacturing Company's bed-ticking mill opened in 1890.
Kitchens spanning a mill town's growth eras
Lexington's housing stock ranges from its 1820s founding-era lots through homes built during its 1890s mill-driven growth to modern construction, so a kitchen remodel here often means real structural work to open up an older, compartmentalized floor plan into something closer to today's layouts.
Where to start in Lexington
What to bring to a Lexington kitchen consult
Note your home's approximate age, current layout, and planned changes. Provider availability varies, so confirm licensing directly.
Confirm permitting for layout changes
Structural changes or plumbing relocation should be checked against current Town of Lexington permitting requirements before work begins.
