Kitchen Remodeling in Shorewood, IL

A Shorewood kitchen refresh, or a full remodel

If your cabinets are sound, a refresh can change how the whole kitchen looks and works without replacing them. We swap the counters, tile a new backsplash, set a new sink and faucet, add lighting, paint the walls and change the hardware. When the cabinets need to go too, we replace them in the same layout and adjust the plumbing and electrical behind them. And when the room needs a new shape, we take on the walls, an island, relocated lines and a new floor on one estimate.

We work in Shorewood every week, coming off I-55 and along Route 52, Route 59 and Black Road near the DuPage River. Solid cabinet boxes are worth keeping, but a refresh still takes care. New counters have to sit on boxes that are level and fastened, the backsplash needs a flat wall, and new lighting needs a circuit that can carry it. We check all three on the first visit, so a refresh does not turn into a bigger job halfway through.

What a Shorewood refresh includes

New countertops

We coordinate the template and install with the fabricator and reconnect the sink and faucet once the tops are set.

Backsplash tile

The wall gets flattened and prepped first, then tiled, grouted and caulked at the counter line.

Sink and faucet

A new sink, faucet and supply lines go in, with the drain reset to fit.

Lighting

Under-cabinet lights, new fixtures over the sink or island, and the switching to run them.

Paint and hardware

Walls and ceiling get painted, and new pulls and knobs go on the existing doors and drawers.

Cabinet replacement when it is time

If the boxes are past saving, we price new cabinets in the same layout on the same visit.

How a Shorewood kitchen job is planned

We come out, look over the cabinets and walls, and tell you plainly whether a refresh will hold up or new cabinets make more sense. You get the scope in writing with each piece priced, and you approve it before we schedule anything. The counter template happens early so the fabricator's lead time does not stretch the job. If something hidden changes the work, we write up the change and wait for your yes, then walk the finished kitchen with you.

FAQ

Kitchen Remodeling in Shorewood: questions

How long does a kitchen refresh take?

A refresh is a few days of work, with the counter install set by the fabricator's lead time after templating. A cabinet replacement usually takes two to three weeks.

Can I keep my cabinets and change everything else?

Yes, if the boxes are solid and level. We check that first, because new stone counters on a weak cabinet can crack or sag.

Do I need a permit for a kitchen refresh in Shorewood?

A refresh that keeps the plumbing and wiring where they are often needs no permit. If we add circuits or move lines and the village of Shorewood requires a permit, we pull it and book the inspection.

Which towns near Shorewood do you work in?

We also remodel kitchens in Joliet, Minooka, Channahon and Crest Hill.

How do I get a price on a refresh?

Call or text (815) 585-1750 with photos of the kitchen. We will set up a visit and write the estimate.
