Re: Our Kitchen Remodel - start to finish!!

I am curious too . . . did you do the work yourselves?

how does IKEA work with getting cabinets from them?

Re: Our Kitchen Remodel - start to finish!!

OK to answer questions:

- if we did it ourselves we would still be in demo and probably divorced by now, so no, we hired a contractor. Although DH redid most of their work every night when he got home.

- I designed the backsplash myself Chat Icon

- cabinets are Ikea. The contractor made up the order for us based on our design. Then it was all delivered. There were a few pieces missing and all that but it worked out ok.

- we did radiant heat BTW. Electric, not too $$$ and I think I will LOVE it in winter.

- The tile floor I love since we have a big black dog - it hides his hair very well
Chat Icon

- we got the granite from Exotic Stones and Designs in E. Farmingdale -- BEST price around. Very nice and the countertop was ready within a weeek of measuring.

I think that's it -- I wouldn't recommend the contractor, although they are recommended by Ikea. I basically designed the kitchen. DH redid a lot of their work - esp. electic.

ETA -- A fellow LIFer's brother installed the backsplash -- Jenheartsrob's brother. He was very nice and did a good job. Him I would recommend.

It is sssssooooooooo beautiful!!!!!! You did an amazing job designing the backsplash!!!!

Can I ask you was it Traemand who did the install??
You can PM me if you would rather. I just had them out to measure and was not so happy with their design so I am reworking it.
Can you PM me what you did not like about them?
It came out sooo nice!!
