Kitchen Remodeling in Walnut Grove
Know how many weeks you'll cook elsewhere before anything is torn out, whether the job is new cabinets and counters, an island or a reworked layout.
Layout Sets the Price and the Pace
Whether the sink, range and refrigerator stay put is the biggest decision in a kitchen. Keeping them lets the new room reuse the existing drain and circuits. Moving them means new runs, and sometimes new framing, which adds cost and adds days.
Cabinets usually take longest to arrive, so they go on order before tear-out. Countertops are templated once the base cabinets are set, which builds a short wait into every kitchen schedule.
What a Kitchen Remodel Covers
-
Cabinets and Countertops
Cabinets replaced, or sound boxes kept and refreshed, with countertops measured off the installed base cabinets so seams and overhangs come out right.
-
Layout and Island Work
Walls opened, an island added or appliances relocated, along with the drain, supply and circuit changes those moves require.
-
Lighting and Backsplash
Recessed and under-cabinet lights, outlets where you'll use them and tile on the wall between counter and upper cabinets.
How the Weeks Go
-
Settle Layout and Order
Layout and selections are settled first, then cabinets and other long-lead items are ordered so they're close to arriving when demolition starts.
-
Tear-Out and Rough-In
Demolition, then new pipe and wire runs for the changed layout, inspected before walls close. This is the noisiest stretch, and it's marked on your schedule.
-
Cabinets, Counters, Finish
Base and wall cabinets are set, counters are measured and fitted, and the backsplash, lights and paint finish the room. Updates count down the weeks until you can cook at home.
Kitchen Questions We Hear
How long until we can cook at home again?
Several weeks of construction is typical, longer if a wall moves or the sink relocates. Your schedule marks the weeks the kitchen is out of service so you can set up a temporary one.
Is it worth keeping my cabinets?
If the boxes are sound and the layout works, painting them and changing counters, hardware and lighting can be enough. When the layout is the problem, new cabinets usually come with the fix.
