Description of Work: Complete remodel of both a 1970’s style kitchen and bathroom. Demo of both rooms down to the studs and sub floor. Demo included removal of wall tile with the then standard 2-3 inch thick concrete wall and several layers of vinyl flooring. To open the kitchen area, a breakfast nook cut-out was made and topped with a granite counter that matched the cabinet countertops and the contractor made a design decision to use the remnant as the window sill. Installation of new maple finish cabinets, porcelain flooring and all new stainless steel appliances including the addition of a dishwasher. The bathroom was inspired by a recent visit to a spa in Gatlinburg and fortunately the visit was one week before the remodel began. Eliminated the “never used” bathtub and created a walk-in shower. I selected slate for the bathroom floor and used it on the shower floor and wall floor-to-ceiling. The contractor advised on pattern usage and carried that onto the custom made vanity top. The updated look has a vessel sink and ultra modern faucet in satin nickel. All fixtures and lighting are satin nickel including the shower trim that has four body jets and rain shower showerhead. Since I am the cook in the household, I love my new kitchen; but equally the bathroom is like a vision come to light. I recently sent pictures to friends and family and the one person who is tough to impress immediately responded “you could be a HGTV remodel”. But the ultimate complement was my husband’s; he said the results far exceeded his expectation. That being said from someone who was not 100% on board for the remodel, that’s huge!
