From a drip to a dream kitchen renovation

What started as a leaky dishwasher turned into a full-blown kitchen glow-up. These homeowners called us in for a quick fix, but inspiration struck once we started talking possibilities.

Before long, we were sketching out a brand-new layout, picking finishes, and planning the interior design details of one seriously functional (and beautiful) kitchen.

The best part? These clients were a dream. Kind, funny, and open to ideas — every crew member and subtrade left the site talking about how great they were. That good energy found its way into every detail of this fantastic kitchen renovation.

Kitchen renovation: sleek, unique, and built-to-last

First, we said goodbye to the tile/hardwood combination that spanned the kitchen, hallway, and front entry. In its place: sleek, durable vinyl plank flooring that ties the space together beautifully.

Stepping inside the kitchen, it’s where we do our best work. We packed it with more cabinets, smart storage, and functional upgrades, making it a joy to cook in (or just admire while sipping coffee).

Cosmetic enhancements are everywhere, too. Quartz countertops, faux-natural grey brick tile backsplash, bright white cabinetry, and stainless steel fixtures and appliances make this kitchen renovation shine, along with the upgraded lighting sources.

Kitchen renovation highlights

• Brand new custom cabinetry throughout
• Closed off a partial wall opening to add more cabinet space
• Lower cabinets feature drawers instead of doors for better usability
• Magic corner pullout and Super Susan for efficient corner storage
• Two pantry cabinets with full pullout drawers
• Vertical baking sheet storage above the fridge
• Double garbage pullout (because one just isn’t enough)
• Modern LED pot lights and under-cabinet lighting by Robinson Lighting

Sometimes, the best renovations are the ones that sneak up on you. A simple repair turns into a total transformation — and in this case, a whole new kitchen that suits the homeowners perfectly.
