I will hold off on my before picture until the kitchen is finished so you can appreciate the difference when it is complete. Gone is the 70's and coming is a brand new modern kitchen.
We had to make a decision to hire a company with people we didn't know or hire a friend that has been in the construction business for decades, does very detailed quality work and we trust him completely. A company would have finished in a lot less time whereas our friend works full time and he is working here only on Saturdays for now. It was a no brainer, we hired our friend.
Our kitchen is gutted, the electric is in, the drywall is finished (except for the ceiling) and some of the kitchen and the living room has the start of the new floor. We have a pretty big dining room that was remodeled last year so we are continuing with the same flooring that we put in the dining room.
All of my new matching stainless steel Bosch appliances are here, crammed on my foyer floor and blocking my front door. The new refrigerator is in the dining room temporarily and we are using it already, without the water hookup. We will finally be able to get water and ice from a refrigerator door as we have never been able to fit a large refrigerator under our cabinet before. I will also have my very first gas range with a built in convection oven included with the regular oven and it is also self cleaning, a must for me! The dishwasher has so many features, I will do a post on it and all of the other appliances once they are installed and working. The microwave is pretty normal, however, I have lived with the microwave taking up precious counter space my entire adult life. Now I will have one that is above the gas stove.
Stay tuned for the New Kitchen Remodel Second Update.
