Our approach

Decide everything first, then build fast

We've remodeled more than 210 kitchens across Lakeview County since 2004. The ones that go smoothly have one thing in common: every decision is made before the old cabinets come out.

That's why our kitchens start with a design meeting and a selections day, not a demo date. By the time we start on site, your counters are chosen, your cabinets have a confirmed ship date, and your schedule is set day by day.

  • Layout and 3D drawings included
  • Temporary kitchen so you can stay home
  • Cabinet ship dates confirmed before we schedule demo
  • Weekly photo updates every Friday

Investment

Duration

Size

The problem
A closed-off 1978 kitchen with a load-bearing wall between it and the living room. The owners wanted one open room without a beam hanging through the middle of the ceiling.
What we did
Engineered an LVL beam set flush into the ceiling, moved the sink to a new quartz waterfall island, added a pantry wall of cabinetry and wove new white-oak flooring into the existing floor.
The result
Finished two days ahead of schedule and within 1.5% of the written quote. The only change order was an upgraded range hood the owners chose mid-project.
Questions

Asked often

More answers on our services page, or call (555) 010-6800.

Can we live at home during a kitchen remodel?

Almost always, yes. We build a temporary kitchen, usually in the dining room, with your old refrigerator, a microwave and a utility sink, and seal the work area behind zippered dust walls.

Do you design the kitchen or do I need a designer?

We include layout design and 3D drawings in every full remodel and open-plan project. If you already work with an independent designer, we're happy to build from their plans.

Can a load-bearing wall really come out?

In most homes, yes. We bring in a structural engineer, size a beam and, where joist depth allows, set it flush in the ceiling so there's no visible header. The engineer's letter is included in your permit set.

Who buys the appliances?

Either way works. You can buy them yourself and we'll coordinate delivery and installation, or we can include them in your quote at our trade pricing.
