September 2026: top-3 Maps share for 25 Gainesville, GA kitchen remodeling listings peaked at 40%; the phrase draws an estimated 10 searches a month.
Someone in Gainesville, GA who types "kitchen remodeling near me" into Google sees a map pack of local listings. This page looks at who appeared in the first three positions of that pack in sampled searches measured on 2026-09-09, how many reviews those businesses hold, and what the businesses say about themselves on their websites.
The market is crowded and highly rated. The Maps data covers 88 businesses, 70 of them with a rating, averaging 4.66. Ninety-seven percent of listings are claimed. That leaves little room to stand out on basic profile setup, so this page checks whether review volume, website content or search wording explain who shows up.
A note on the main measure. Top-3 share is the percentage of sampled searches in which a listing appeared in positions 1 to 3. It is not the percentage of searches in which a listing was shown first. The sample is small, so treat the differences as directional, not as proof of cause.
The ranking table lists 25 businesses. Website text was captured for seven of them on 2026-10-22, and the website comparison is limited to those seven.
The evidence
The Gainesville kitchen remodeling Maps market is large, highly rated and almost fully claimed.
Measured demand for the exact phrase is small.
Gainesville Cabinet Company had the highest top-3 share, with only 18 reviews.
The first three listed businesses had a higher median review count than the rest, but many top listings hold a 5.0 on very few reviews.
Many businesses that appear for this search describe another main trade on their own sites.
Captured websites disclose little about kitchen cost, process and licensing, and none showed kitchen remodel prices.
Service areas on captured sites are broad, with few stated local bases.
Questions in the sampled searches are mostly about cost and budget.

| The Gainesville kitchen remodeling Maps market is large, highly rated and almost fully claimed. | 88 businesses; 70 rated; 4.66 average rating; 97% claimed; 67 with a website | All businesses observed in the sampled Maps data for 'kitchen remodeling near me' in Gainesville, GA, measured 2026-09-09. Includes businesses outside full kitchen remodeling. |
| Measured demand for the exact phrase is small. | 10 searches a month (estimate) | Keyword Planner monthly estimate for 'kitchen remodeling near me' in the Gainesville, GA market. Only this one keyword was measured. |
| Gainesville Cabinet Company had the highest top-3 share, with only 18 reviews. | 40% top-3 share (Gainesville Cabinet Company); 12 other listings at 20% | Percentage of sampled Maps searches in which the listing appeared in positions 1-3, measured 2026-09-09. The sample is small. |
| The first three listed businesses had a higher median review count than the rest, but many top listings hold a 5.0 on very few reviews. | Median 57 reviews (first three) vs 22 (remaining listed businesses) | The 25 businesses in the ranking table, with review counts from Maps at measurement time (2026-09-09). Not the full market of 88. |
Of the 88 businesses, 70 have a rating and the average is 4.66. Ninety-seven percent of listings are claimed and 67 have a website. These figures cover every business observed, not only the 25 in the ranking table. Because Maps listings include businesses outside full kitchen remodeling, 88 is not a count of kitchen remodelers. With nearly every listing claimed and rated highly, claiming a profile does not look like an advantage here. Differences may come from review volume, profile content and the website.
No winner was identified for the phrase in the sampled Maps searches. The volume is an estimate of searches, not of people or customers. Other phrases customers use, such as 'kitchen remodel Gainesville GA', were not measured. This one phrase is unlikely to be a large lead source on its own, and visibility for related searches (cost, small kitchens, named contractors in Gainesville) may matter more, though those were not measured.
Gainesville Cabinet Company has a 5.0 rating on 18 reviews. Twelve other listed businesses appeared in the top three in 20% of searches. Ace Handyman Services Lanier (163 reviews) and SERVPRO of Gainesville (161 reviews) appeared in 0%, while Integrity Enterprises Deck Services (5 reviews) and Grand Nova Renovations Inc. (2 reviews) appeared in 20%. Review count by itself does not seem to explain who shows in the top three. The 20% steps suggest a handful of searches, so the gap between 20% and 40% may be noise, and no cause for the pattern is established.
Integrity Enterprises Deck Services has a 5.0 on 5 reviews, Carter Architectural Millwork a 5.0 on 5 and Grand Nova Renovations Inc. a 5.0 on 2. Levon Remodeling & Handyman Services has a 3.0 on 2 reviews. Review content and recency are not part of these figures. Where a competitor's perfect score rests on a handful of reviews, steadily collecting new reviews could make a profile look more credible to buyers, even if it does not change map position.
Skyline Contracting presents itself as a 'Roofing Contractor & Remodeler' with roofing as its first listed service. Integrity Enterprises Deck Services describes itself as a deck builder. Weathertite lists roofing and sheet metal, safe rooms, kitchens, bathrooms and Christmas lights. Gainesville Cabinet Company describes custom and semi-custom cabinets and features a remodeled kitchen with butler's pantry. Michael James Remodeling lists kitchens, bathrooms, basements, outdoor living and room additions. A business that does full kitchen remodels and says so clearly, with scope, process and project photos, may stand out. Appearing in the sampled searches does not mean a business was chosen or recommended.
Michael James Remodeling says it tells customers the real cost and timeline before they sign. Integrity Enterprises Deck Services says it gives a rough cost range at the first visit. Modern Carpentry LLC links a Kitchen Cost Calculator. Weathertite offers a free in-home consultation and Gainesville Cabinet Company a consultation request. NexGen Living states that it is fully insured and 'not a general contractor', and that it works with licensed professionals where a general contractor is needed. Websites for several listed businesses, such as Crown Contracting and Tracy Tesmer Design/Remodeling, were not captured and are not compared.
Modern Carpentry LLC lists a Gainesville page among 16 location pages and a long list of Georgia cities. Michael James Remodeling lists Gainesville among many location pages and describes 'Gainesville & Alpharetta Home Remodeling'. Weathertite states Metro Atlanta and North Georgia. NexGen Living states Metro Atlanta and surrounding areas. Skyline Contracting gives a Gainesville street address and weekday hours of 8AM-6PM Monday to Friday. A stated base, hours and defined service area could be easier to trust than a broad list, but this was not tested.
The cost questions include the most expensive part of a kitchen remodel, whether $10,000 is enough, a realistic budget, the '30% rule' and 'kitchen remodeling near me cost'. Related searches include 'small kitchen remodeling near me', 'best kitchen remodeling near me', 'contractors gainesville ga' and a named business, Michael James Remodeling. Many other questions in the wider sample concern countertop installation and granite supply, which are different trades or retail, and are excluded here.
Method
Maps visibility was measured for the search 'kitchen remodeling near me' in Gainesville, GA, with the measurement dated 2026-09-09.
Top-3 share is the percentage of sampled searches in which a listing appeared in positions 1-3. It is not a first-position share.
Market figures (88 businesses, 70 rated, 4.66 average rating, 97% claimed, 67 with a website) cover every business observed in the market, not only the 25 in the ranking table.
The ranking table lists 25 businesses with their rating, review count, claimed status and top-3 share. The top-review medians are calculated from these 25 only: the first three listed versus the remaining 22.
Search demand comes from Keyword Planner monthly estimates. Related questions and searches come from People Also Ask and related-search results in sampled Google searches.
Website text was captured for 7 of the listed businesses on 2026-10-22. It shows what each business says about itself and is not verified.
What it means
In sampled Google Maps searches for "kitchen remodeling near me" in Gainesville, GA, Gainesville Cabinet Company appeared in the top three in 40% of searches with 18 reviews. Twelve other listings reached 20%, and two listings with 161 and 163 reviews reached 0%.
For owners
What to act on
Claiming the Google Business Profile is not a differentiator in Gainesville: 97% of 88 observed listings are already claimed. Any edge has to come from review volume, profile content or the website. Review count alone did not predict top-3 visibility. A 163-review and a 161-review listing appeared in 0% of sampled top-three results while a 2-review and a 5-review listing appeared in 20%. Check categories, location and proximity before assuming more reviews will lift map position. Several competitors hold a 5.0 on 2 to 5 reviews. Steady new reviews can make a profile look more credible next to those, even if map position does not change. Because many listings show another main trade (roofing, decks, cabinets, handyman work), a business that does full kitchen remodels can say so plainly on its kitchen page, with scope, process and project photos. None of the seven captured sites showed kitchen remodel prices, and licensing was stated by only one (NexGen Living). A price-range explanation, a stated licensing arrangement and a timeline on the kitchen page are open ground. Track whether they change the number or quality of inquiries. The exact phrase 'kitchen remodeling near me' has an estimated 10 searches a month, so it is unlikely to be a large lead source alone. Cost, small-kitchen and named-contractor searches may matter more, but they were not measured. Most questions in the sampled searches are about cost and budget. A Gainesville kitchen page that answers them (what costs most, whether $10,000 is enough, what a realistic budget is, the '30% rule') matches what searchers ask. Whether it brings inquiries needs tracking. Competitor sites list broad service areas, such as 16 location pages or Metro Atlanta and North Georgia. A stated local base, hours and defined service area is a possible contrast, though this was not tested.
For customers
What to notice
A 5.0 rating means little without the review count behind it. In this market, 5.0 listings range from 2 reviews to 189 reviews, and one listing has 3.0 on 2 reviews. Being shown near the top of the map pack does not mean a business specializes in kitchens. Several listings that appear for this search describe roofing, decks, cabinets or handyman work as their main trade, so check each website for kitchen scope and project photos. Kitchen remodel prices were not visible in the captured text of the seven websites. Ask for a cost range, timeline and licensing arrangement before signing. Michael James Remodeling and Integrity Enterprises Deck Services say they give cost information early. NexGen Living states it is not a general contractor and works with licensed professionals where one is needed. Many service-area lists are broad. If a local base matters to you, look for a stated address and hours, as Skyline Contracting gives. Countertop installation and granite supply searches return a different set of businesses, including retailers. They are not the same as hiring a kitchen remodeler.
The search measured was 'kitchen remodeling near me' for Gainesville, GA, on 2026-09-09. For each listing in the sampled Maps results, top-3 share is the percentage of sampled searches in which it appeared in positions 1-3. It is not a first-position share.

Website text was captured on 2026-10-22 for seven listed businesses: Skyline Contracting, Gainesville Cabinet Company, Modern Carpentry LLC Remodeling | Home & Bath, Michael James Remodeling, Weathertite LLC, NexGen Living and Integrity Enterprises Deck Services.

Market figures cover every business observed, not only the 25 in the ranking. Maps listings include businesses outside full kitchen remodeling, so the market count of 88 is not a count of kitchen remodelers.
Top-3 share is the percentage of sampled searches in which a listing appeared in positions 1-3, not the percentage shown first. The sample is small and 20% steps suggest a handful of searches, so differences between 20% and 40% may be noise. No cause for the ranking pattern is established.

Appearing in the sampled searches does not mean a business was chosen or recommended.
Gainesville Cabinet Company appeared in the top three in 40% of sampled searches, the highest share measured. It has a 5.0 rating on 18 reviews. Twelve other listed businesses (ranks 2 to 13) appeared in 20% of searches, and the remaining twelve (ranks 14 to 25) appeared in 0%.
Review count did not line up neatly with visibility. Ace Handyman Services Lanier (163 reviews) and SERVPRO of Gainesville (161 reviews) appeared in 0% of sampled top-three results. Integrity Enterprises Deck Services (5 reviews) and Grand Nova Renovations Inc. (2 reviews) appeared in 20%.
Top-3 share here means the percentage of sampled searches where the listing was in positions 1-3. It does not say how often a listing was first. The sample is small and the 20% steps suggest a handful of searches, so the difference between 20% and 40% may be noise. No cause for the pattern is established.
