Talk through your Carrollton kitchen
Tell us what isn't working. We'll follow up to talk it through and set up a visit if it's a fit.
Kitchens from this era are often closed off from the next room, and some owners want a wider opening or a pass-through. If the wall is load-bearing, it needs an engineer, and we'll flag that early.
A lot of the time, though, the better move is to leave the walls alone and fix what's inside: take out the soffit, put in taller cabinets, upgrade the lighting and replace the floor.
We line up the cabinet, tile, plumbing and electrical trade partners so each step follows the last.
Some soffits are empty. Others hide ducts, wires or pipes, and a duct inside changes the scope and the cost. We check before we price.
Solid oak boxes can last a long time. If the layout works, new doors, counters and hardware may be enough. If it doesn't, we'll explain why replacing them might serve you better.
Baths from this era may have older tile, tubs and plumbing. Water damage can hide behind tile, so we plan for what might turn up when the walls come open.
Often. First we find out what's in it, since some soffits hold ducts, wires or pipes. If it's empty, removal is simple. If there's a duct, we either reroute it or keep the box. You'll know which before you decide.
It can be, if the boxes are solid and you like the layout. Paint costs less than replacement, but it won't add storage or fix an awkward design. If you want better drawers or a new layout, new cabinets may be worth the extra.
Start by checking the tub, tile and plumbing. Then plan the vanity, floor, lighting and shower or tub surround. Older baths can hide water damage, so we build some room for that into the plan, and the written scope shows what's included before work starts.
Answer a few questions about your kitchen or bathroom. It takes about two minutes. We'll call to talk it over and, if it makes sense, set up a time to come see the space.
