Kitchen Remodeling in Itasca

Itasca kitchens, refresh to new layout

Kitchen remodeling covers a wide range, so we sort it into three scopes. A refresh replaces surfaces and fixtures and leaves the cabinets. A cabinet replacement keeps the layout, with plumbing and electrical adjusted for the new boxes. A layout change can open a wall after we check whether it is bearing and what runs inside it, add an island, relocate plumbing and electrical, and lay a new floor.

Itasca is on our regular route, off I-290 and Route 53, with Irving Park Road and Thorndale Avenue crossing the village and a Metra station in town. It is a DuPage County village close to Roselle, Wood Dale and Addison. If your plan adds an island, it needs power, and code calls for receptacles on it. Where the kitchen sits over a basement, we run that circuit up through the floor from below, and over a slab it means cutting a channel in the concrete, which we price up front.

How we run an Itasca kitchen remodel

The estimate starts with a measure and a look at what is under and inside the walls you want to change. You get the scope in writing, trade by trade. If a wall or floor turns up something unexpected, we show you and price it in writing, and nothing proceeds until you approve. Before demo, we set up the fridge and microwave in another room and give you the list of loud days and water-off days. The job ends with a walkthrough of every door, drawer and outlet.

• Islands get wired to code.
• We check walls for loads and for what runs inside them.
• The written scope breaks out each trade.
• You get the loud days and water-off days in advance.
• We set up a temporary fridge and microwave spot.
• Rooms around the kitchen stay protected.
