Many hours are spent in the kitchen preparing meals. Make that time more enjoyable with a kitchen that matches your personal tastes and life style. We can work with your designer to build the kitchen you have always wanted, or work with one of our suppliers' designers if you are not sure about what you want. Either way, we are sure that you will be thrilled with your new kitchen.
Here are just a few of the kitchens we have built shown in the pictures below.

| Kitchen and Family Room - A Wooded View |
|
| This kitchen was remodeled to create a more useful layout bringing the beauty of the woods into the house.
The breakfast bar serves as a great surface for eating, preparing meals, working on projects, doing homework or anything else. It also creates an open transition between the kitchen and the family room.

| Kitchen and Family Room - The Family Room |
|
| Both of these rooms are in the same open space, so the new cabinets were selected to match. This home has hot water heat and the fin pipe that ran the length of this wall was replaced with a small unit under the TV that has a blower and a radiator in it.
The counter tops in the kitchen are Quartz, but the home's owner did not want the cold, hard surface in the TV room. This counter is made from a single piece of laminated maple veneer that is almost 10' long and it has no joints.

| Accessing A Blind Corner - Cutting It Open |
|
| A blind corner can be useless, but it is easy to access from the back in some cases such as this. The new door opening has been cut in.
The new door is installed into the existing cabinet back to provide access to the back of the blind corner from the peninsula.
The new door frame was custom built from pre-finished filler strips to match the finish on the existing cabinets and the new door.

| A Complete Kitchen Gut - Plumbing |
|
| This old farm house required a complete gut down to the brick walls. The plumbing will be brought through the wall from the utility room and underground in the trench in the floor.
The original back door had been covered over. A small window about half the size of this opening was over the sink. The new window will be installed into new framing in this opening to let in much more light.

| Just The Couner Tops - Before |
|
| Just a little paint and new counter tops will spruce up this dated kitchen. The shelves and paneling will be removed before painting.
The old counter was removed and the new counter was installed over the original cabinets. The detached back splash allowed for a better fit the wall and counter rather than a single piece performed counter top.
An oak edge band was applied to the counter to add a distinctive finish to a simple laminate counter top.
