Kitchen

The kitchen underwent a complete gut renovation, with all existing cabinetry, countertops, appliances, and finishes removed to allow for a fully reimagined layout. The redesign maximized workflow and storage while incorporating modern cabinetry, durable quartz countertops, and a stylish backsplash. Updated appliances and layered lighting, including task, ambient, and accent fixtures were installed, and electrical systems were upgraded to meet modern functionality requirements.

Bathrooms

All three bathrooms received full gut renovations, with old fixtures, finishes, and plumbing components replaced. The layouts were updated to improve functionality, while modern vanities, faucets, and shower or tub systems were installed. New tile was laid on both the floors and walls, creating a cohesive, spa-inspired atmosphere that was both durable and visually appealing. Ventilation, lighting, and electrical systems were upgraded to ensure safety and comfort throughout each bathroom.

Bedrooms & electrical

The four bedrooms were upgraded with new closets to increase storage capacity and partial window installations to improve natural light and ventilation. Walls and finishes were refreshed, creating bright, comfortable, move-in ready spaces. Electrical outlets and lighting were updated to support modern living needs.

A comprehensive electrical and lighting upgrade was completed throughout the home, including the installation of GFI outlets, additional lighting fixtures, and fire alarms to meet current safety codes. These updates were integrated seamlessly with the renovations in the kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms to provide both convenience and safety.
