Kitchen Remodeling in Western Springs

Kitchen remodeling in Western Springs, from the subfloor up

We remodel kitchens at three levels: a refresh with the cabinets left in place, new cabinets in the current layout, or a layout change with walls, plumbing and electrical moved. Every scope is one estimate, from demo and disposal through framing, rough-in, drywall, cabinets, counter coordination, tile, flooring, trim and paint. We set up the fridge and microwave in a temporary spot and stage the work to keep the days without a sink and stove as few as we can. You will also know which days are loud before we start.

We cover Western Springs from I-294 and Ogden Avenue, working along Wolf Road, 55th Street and the streets around the Metra station in Cook County. A kitchen that has been redone before often has two or three layers of flooring stacked on the subfloor, and each one raised the floor a little above the hardwood in the next room. We take those layers down to sound subfloor, so the new floor meets the adjoining rooms at the right height. That also keeps the dishwasher from getting trapped under a counter it can no longer slide out from.

What a Western Springs kitchen remodel includes

How a Western Springs kitchen job runs

A free estimate at the house includes a look at the floor layers and the doorways into the kitchen, and you get the scope in writing. When the old floor comes up and shows damage, such as a soft spot by the sink, we price the repair on paper and do it only once you approve. Your schedule marks the loud days and the no-sink days before we start. We close with a walkthrough of the room, including a look at every transition.
