We started on this kitchen remodel in March, 2020. Little did we know that two weeks into our project, we would be dealing with a global pandemic and orders for non-essential workers to stay home. We had just begun demo for a new kitchen, continuation of LVP flooring throughout the main floor as well as removal of wallpaper and popcorn ceiling. This was our biggest remodel to date and by far the most interesting.

If you have ever lived through home renovations you know how challenging it can be. Now I want you to imagine our client who was working from home, conducting distance learning for 3 kids, and under a state mandate to stay at home. We knew that getting our client her kitchen back ASAP, was top priority. We kept moving along and only had a few hiccups along the way.

Our client had existing LVP (Luxury Vinyl Plank) flooring installed a few years back that she wanted to continue throughout her main level. Upon install it was discovered that the flooring company had changed their interlocking system and the new flooring match did not click in with the old. We got going on ordering more new flooring right away and continued to install the flooring we had. Luckily this product was in stock and our supplier LakeShore Interiors had it out to us very quickly.

Once the flooring was in and the paint was up, it was a fast tract to project completion. Our custom cabinet maker Aric installed the cabinetry and then these beautiful Quartz counter tops from Astonia were installed.

Next we worked with Mike from Aurora Tile Works to install a gorgeous glass tile backsplash and stacked stone fireplace from The Tile Shop. This is hands down the best part of a project- the finishing selections. We were so lucky to be able to work with an awesome crew who showed up for our clients during a pandemic to be able to get them into their kitchen as soon as possible! We had a few setbacks but it could have been much worse with delays due to COVID-19. Looking back, I’m proud of our team for keeping everyone safe and doing a great job on this project.

Our client was very happy to have her main level and kitchen area back so she could cook for her family using her new Warners Stellian appliances. What a pleasure it is to work with amazing clients who were so understanding during a very uncertain time. This is why we love what we do!
