Re: Pandemic Kitchen renos - hey home anyhow
When I do mine (eventually) I'm taking out the L-shape and putting in an island. Then, on the far wall, I get rid of the china cabinet and cart that holds the toaster oven, and the small filing cabinet. Those will get replaced by cabinets that will run almost floor-to-ceiling, with a break for a counter. More storage (tidy storage) and gets rid of clutter while using the space more efficiently. With the extra counter space, I can move the coffee maker and accessories over there. I have been planning this for a few years. But windows first.normaM wrote:friends are a bit freaked, they like the kitchen as it is.. but the cabinets just are nothing I would have selected.
Bigger the kitchen, more cleaning Lady :)

Re: Pandemic Kitchen renos - hey home anyhow
well that was a learning experience. PLace I selected, spent a bunch of time - crickets back. Guess they have bigger jobs. A problem trying to reno during a pandemic when everyone else is doing the same thing as they stuck at home
So taking that money and having the house exterior painted. They figure about a week.
Sun has faded the stucco - going with the same colors tho - except some changes to a few areas
Hope the weather gets good fast, can't get windows done or power washing decks til painting done and well dried
I create my own stressors

Re: Pandemic Kitchen renos - hey home anyhow
Everyone I know just about are doing renos and most have started at the same time - looking at 3 weeks to the end of May for some trades right now and I doubt it's going to get any faster with the nicer weather supposedly around the corner. Good luck.
Truths can be backed up by facts - do you have any?

The painters are for certain. I am about the last job they are taking - fully booked thru the Spring/summer
Meanwhile friends have been told their fridge is backordered again - 3 months and counting
