Cabinet Remodeling - Kitchen Remodeling Questions
1.00What is the best way to start a bathroom remodeling project?
Q.The current bathroom is very small and has an adjacent room that could be used. What is the best way to go about starting a home remodeling project? Who to contact, etc?
A.Designers have much more knowledge and experience in remodeling than the average person. They can introduce you to things you never though possible; as well as, ensure your vision is created. BUT...an interior designer is very expensive.
I work for a cabinet company in San Diego CA: www.citycabinetcenter.com. We have many customers that were in the same position as you. Our designers have helped create many beautiful rooms for customers while saving them the cost of an interior decorator. Maybe I am biased but a trip to a cabinet company seems worth your time. Have fun!
Q.We hired a contractor back in October to remodel our kitchen. The remodeling was supposed to be done before Thanksgiving. It was almost finished except for the trim and one shelf which were not yet finished. We were then promised it would be done by Thanksgiving, as we were hosting dinner for all of our family. It wasn't finished. We were THEN told it would CERTAINLY be done by the time we had our Christmas party on Dec. 19th. It wasn't. And you guessed it...it still isn't finished. The problem is...our contractor paid the cabinet maker in full and I suppose he has no incentive to return. It has mostly been left on my shoulders to call and hassle the cabinet maker. Yesterday, I called the contractor (who hired the cabinet maker) twice, and got no answer, no return. I'm FED UP! It's been 3 months now, and the job is not finished. I considered calling an attorney, but I'm afraid that would cost as much as calling in someone else to finish the job. What are my options at this point?
A.I'm sure you've figured out that this is why you never pay ahead of work being done. That said, I think you're better off hiring someone new to come in and finish it. The lawyer would be expensive and the cost to finish it shouldn't be that high. Even for a small project like this, however, get it in writing and make sure you're satisfied before you pay in full.
1.00Remodeling a bath - cost to move water lines a few inches?
Q.I am thinking about remodeling my 2 bathrooms, both of which currently have 72"-wide double vanities. The new vanities I am thinking of buying would need some of the water lines moved a few inches. For example, I would like to install 2, 24"-wide vanities (one at each end of where the 72"-wide unit is now) and put a piece of furniture in the now-open 24" space in between. The problem is that the 24" vanity has a drawer on the bottom and when I look at the current water pipes/connections, one pipe is coming in only a few inches from the bottom of the current cabinet - right where the drawer would be on the new cabinet. In the other bath, one of the water lines is probably 27-28" in from the left end of the 72"-wide cabinet, which means it is in what would be the space BETWEEN the new 24"-wide cabinets. (I hope all this makes sense!) So my question is, how difficult a job is it to move water lines a few inches up, down, to the right, to the left? And what might be a ballpark cost of this kind of job? FYI, my house is on a concrete slab (very unusual in New Hampshire) but the pipes are coming in through the wall, and all the plumbing currently works well. Anyway I hope I don't have to give up on remodeling my bathrooms! Thanks!!
A.That's not very difficult, just remove the drywall, expose the piping, then re-cut and solder the pipe where you want it. If you had the piping entirely exposed and the water shut off and drained from the system, a plumber could do it in about an hour and charge you maybe $150, or you can DIY

1.00Is it possible to change this parallel kitchen to the peninsula kitchen?
Q.Is it possible to change this parallel kitchen to the peninsula kitchen?
We are in Houston, TX. We would like to make a partial remodeling for our kitchen. What concern us the most is the kitchen sink and dishwasher? Can we change it like that?
It would be great if we can know the estimate cost for this work?
How much would it cost more if we want to have granite countertop too?
Please refer any excellent contractors that you know.
Thanks a lot

my kitchen is about the same size.
images are for illustrated purpose only.
A.You won't get much of a peninsula if you have a ten foot will "galley" kitchen.
You will need to have four feet between the end of the peninsula and the front of the cabinet on the opposite side of the kitchen.
Invite a cabinet maker in to give you an estimate. The kitchen cabinet business is currently pretty slow. You should not have any trouble finding one to come in to draw up a plan,
They should do it free of charge.
Good luck!

1.00Kitchen Remodeling - What Kinds of Kitchen Lights Can I Install?
Q.I'm looking for a list of lighting options to choose from.
A.Ceiling lights are pretty popular and traditional, but you can always innovate with style and color. They are also usually the cheapest.
Other than this, you can have hanging kitchen lights which come in two main styles:
1. Chandelier lights -- A collection of hanging lights grouped together
2. Pendant lights -- Lights that hang down from the ceiling, often a foot or more
If you're installing new kitchen cabinets, you can also look into under cabinet lights.

Cabinet Remodeling
Your kitchen cabinets will set the tone for the rest of your kitchen. Depending on your cabinets and style, you can decide on the color for your walls and the material for the kitchen countertops. Decide on your cabinets first and then make decisions about other elements of your kitchen. The design should complement easily with the colors and the materials used.
Choosing kitchen cabinets are simply a matter of how much you can afford to spend. If you can afford to do so, always go in for custom kitchen cabinets. You have an endless variety of styles to choose from, and you can easily blend two or three styles to create the kitchen of your dreams. Materials are yours to play with and you can mix and match textures and paint colors to create a fantasy kitchen. If your budget doesn't allow for an expensive custom kitchen, choose from the number of stock options that you have. You might have a very limited range to choose from but they are more affordable. They are also easy to install as they come pre fabricated and only need to be fitted in. Another option could be a semi custom cabinet that has some elements that are prefabricated and are therefore quicker to install.
Your kitchen cabinets could eat into as much as half of your kitchen remodeling costs. Cheap kitchen cabinets can be had with the use of laminates and other cheaper material. If you want an elegant kitchen however a cherry kitchen cabinet is the choice for you. Cherry kitchen cabinets are more expensive because of the expensive kind of wood involved, and offer your Mesa, Arizona area kitchen a rich and warm look that's unmatched. Depending on the craftsmanship your cherry kitchen cabinets can last long and can get distinctly more beautiful over time giving you a vintage kitchen cabinet that's stunning to look at.
