Downers Grove Kitchen Project Is Underway

Recently we started work on a kitchen renovation in Downers Grove. The house was built in the fifties and I don’t think the kitchen has had much done to it since.  It definitely needed updating for the family of five that live there.  These photos were taken on the first day of work.  On that first day we removed all the old appliances, cabinets, vinyl tile flooring and countertops.  We also are taking out all the soffits to allow room for the new cabinets to go all the way to the ceiling.  This will allow for a lot of extra storage space in the new kitchen.

The new cabinets will be cherry wood with a medium finish from Fieldstone.  We are also adding granite countertops and oak flooring.  The appliances will be moved as well as a couple of doorways to make for better traffic flow as well as to make more wall space for cabinets.

All-in-all it’s a fairly complicated kitchen, but it will be well worth it for the family that lives there.
