Tredington Park Kitchen

Total Cost: $137,739 

Time To Complete: 8 Weeks (1 week over schedule)

Project Summary: Tredington Park Kitchen

The primary goal of this remodel was to enhance the kitchen’s utility and functionality. Before we remodeled it, the kitchen had two small islands that broke up the space. The kitchen was functional but dated and needed some reworking to make it the best it could be. We love how the kitchen turned out. It’s bright and airy, well-designed, and much more functional. What we did We removed the two small islands and replaced them with one large island, increasing prep space, making a place for people to gather, and visually streamlining the room. This single change enhanced the functionality and flow of the space tremendously. We added more functionality and utility by including organizers, storage areas, pull-outs, and a utility sink. The range was installed in a peninsula that blocked the breakfast nook (as well as the light from the bay windows).

Materials and Fixtures

Cabinets A key design feature included frameless cabinets from Decor Cabinets with these black Riverside Pulls from Top Knobs which modernized and lightened the space. Countertops The Rose Bay quartz countertops from and backsplash from Cambira really make a statement. And now that the windows aren’t blocked, the whole space is full of natural light, making it a perfect place to spend time. Appliances We added a Wolf built-in coffee maker and a built-in pantry cabinet. They chose GE dishwasher drawers for their modern convenience. We also love this Ruvati workstation sink for its functionality and eye-catching design,

Project Challenges

Appliance Installation Miscommunication: A mix-up with the supplier led to plumber rescheduling. How we fixed it: Improving communication between the design team and project manager to prevent future issues. Countertop Delay: The custom Rose Bay Quartz countertops were delayed due to material availability. How we fixed it: We managed the delay by adjusting the project schedule to minimize disruption while waiting for the materials.

Betton Woods Kitchen

Total Cost: $205,532 

Time To Complete: 13 Weeks (2 weeks over schedule)

Project Summary: The Betton Woods Kitchen

The design goals for this kitchen were to improve the layout and open up the kitchen. We removed some upper cabinets, moved windows to enhance the natural light, and installed a gorgeous walnut kitchen island complete with seating and a sink.

Materials and Fixtures

Tile These White Thasses Beveled Marble Subway Tile from Tilebar were used on the backsplash to add to the continuity of white in the space. Flooring We love the checkerboard black and white marble floor, especially contrasted with the walnut in the kitchen island and shelving near the coffee station. We used Charm EVO Landmark Michaelagelo tile in black and white (cut down to 12x12 for checkerboard pattern) It’s a striking, modern yet timeless look. Appliances and Fixtures The unique finishes, such as the faucet, add to the kitchen’s distinctive style. Moving the windows was a big change that allowed for the relocation of the range and the addition of the island. This improved both the functionality and the aesthetics of the space. We also closed off an entrance from the garage to create a small mudroom with storage for kids’ gear and give some privacy to the guest bathroom. The walnut shelf and the adjacent coffee station remain one of our favorite features of this remodel. They add character and are a gorgeous addition to the space. This kitchen went from closed off, dim, and featureless to striking, open, light-filled, and memorable.

Project Challenges

Unexpected Delay: The countertop installation delay impacted the schedules for the tile installer and electrician, extending the project timeline by two weeks. How we fixed it: We adjusted the project schedule to focus on other tasks while waiting, minimizing the overall impact on progress. Additional Cost: When we removed the soffits to extend the cabinets to the ceiling we discovered electrical wiring in the soffit cavity, this required a change order to address. How we fixed it: This somewhat expected issue was managed proactively, as we had prepared the client for this possibility during the design phase.

WAverly Hills Kitchen

Total Cost: $231,273 

Time To Complete: 12 Weeks (9 days over schedule)

Project Sumary: Waverly Hills Kitchen

The goal of this kitchen and laundry remodel was to expand the kitchen to create an open-concept space, making it more functional for entertaining. And we love how it turned out. What we did We removed several walls (including one that was load-bearing, and so required the installation of a large beam), and changed the galley kitchen to an open L-shaped kitchen. We also added a gorgeous large kitchen island, which will help the homeowners accomplish their goal of easy entertaining.

Materials and Fixtures

Laundry Addition  One of the problems with the way the house was designed before was that the washer and dryer were in the garage–something the homeowners really wanted to change. We were able to reconfigure the space and create a dreamy laundry room complete with a farmhouse sink and windows. It’s connected to the kitchen by way of an eye-catching arched pocket door. Cabinets White cabinets with brass accents compliment the brass faucet and gleaming white subway tiles. The effect is a classy, high-end look that is timeless and chic. We built pantry storage with pull-out shelves next to the fridge for easy access. And we added a small bar area in the dining room. Appliances We love the GE Cafe Range with brass accents and the paneled fridge that blends seamlessly into the cabinetry. Paneled appliances create cohesiveness throughout the space. The kitchen island has a subtle light blue finish that pairs well with the design and adds interest to the space. The gold accents add a touch of elegance. The kitchen design will stand the test of time and be a place where people love to gather for years to come.

Project Challenges

Cabinet Design Change: After installation, the bar cabinet panels didn’t meet our design expectations. How we fixed it: We quickly addressed this by ordering replacement panels to ensure a cohesive look across the kitchen. Unexpected Door Delay: The two-month delay in receiving the pocket door caused a minor scheduling issue. How we fixed it: We couldn’t finish drywalling until the door was installed, we adapted and kept the project moving forward without impacting the overall timeline.
