Arnold's Kitchen and Baths

DESCRIPTION OF WORK
After purchasing a new townhouse, we had the kitchen completely gutted and rebuilt, including moving of plumbing and running a gas line to replace an electric stove. New drywall, cabinets installed, quartz counter/backsplace, recessed LED lighting, under cabinet lighting, tile flooring, and all appliances installed. We used Bill's suggestions for subcontractors (for painting, tile work, and counter cutter) and were completely happy with all of these providers.

DESCRIPTION OF WORK
We remodeled our 1980's kitchen by: replacing our tile counter tops with quartz slabs fabricating a new larger island that includes a warming drawer replacing an island cooktop with a free-standing range that is now located on an exterior wall (which required moving appliances) replacing about 1/3 of the old cabinets with new custom-builts installing new overhead and under-cabinet lighting replacing all of our appliances, which we purchased separately for about $20K (included in the $40K total) and Bill's crew installed. We did not change the existing tile floor To keep your project on-schedule it is important to order the appliances early so that they all are available at the end of the project. We bought our appliances at the end of November and had the retailer hold them for us until mid-Feb. One surprise was that the man-made quartz counter top slabs could have had a three month lead time but with Bill's help we were able to expedite delivery so the project was not delayed. Another surprise was the cost of custom-built cabinets. The cost for our project was partly justified because the color/finish of the new cabinets needed to match the old cabinets that were kept. The new cabinets were a great match and of much higher quality but if we were to replace ALL of our cabinets, we would have used modular cabinets and saved a lot of $.
