We remodeled our kitchen
starting in December of 2002. It was
a 3-month process and,
let us tell you, that means
a lot of takeout!!
Let us lead you through
the process!
We had a pretty small
kitchen to begin with, and it dated back to, like, 1957 so it was time for
an update!
Not only was it
butt-ugly, but none of the appliances worked.
(Well, actually most
of them worked about half the time!)
We did the obligatory
bids from 50 contractors. They were all way too spendy, so we started
thinking that we'd
have to do the general ourselves, and just hire subs. Anyway, we finally
found
one guy to do the
general and one guy to do the custom cabinets. And, they did a kick-ass
job!
Through the bidding
process we got some great ideas on a new layout. We knew it was a
matter of ripping
everything out to the studs and subflooring, sticking up new drywall,
new sheathing for the
floor, and going from there. While we were in the walls we totally rewired
the place for
electrical, phone, network and cable.
We took photos of
everything! Check out the slideshow or the before and after shots.
