Kitchen and Bathroom Renovations in Richmond

These are the rooms you use hardest and notice most, and in a Richmond home built twenty or thirty years ago they are usually the first thing to feel dated. We rebuild them properly, working through layout, plumbing, electrical, cabinetry, tile and finishing rather than just replacing what is already there.

Most of the work below was done as part of larger renovations, which is how we prefer to work when the layout needs to change. If the walls are staying where they are, we take on single rooms as well.

Home Remodeling That Adds Storage and Counter Space

Most of the kitchens we rebuild end up with far more room to work and put things away than they started with, often by adding an island, opening the kitchen up to the dining area or building in pantry cabinets where there used to be a wall. We also rework lighting so the counters and island are properly lit for cooking, since older kitchens often rely on a single fixture in the middle of the ceiling.

Bathrooms usually get new vanities with more storage, updated tile and better lighting, and the layout can change when a tub, shower or toilet sits in an awkward spot. If you're thinking about changing more of the house than these two rooms, have a look at our full home renovations.

How We Approach a Kitchen or Bathroom

The cabinetry and tile are what you see, but whether the room works comes down to what sits behind them, so we start there. Moving a sink or a range means moving plumbing and venting, and taking out a wall between a kitchen and a dining room means knowing what that wall is holding up first. We work all of that out on paper before anything gets pulled apart, so there are fewer surprises once the work starts.

These rooms get the same people and the same standard as a full custom build, so whether you are updating one bathroom or reworking a kitchen as part of a larger renovation, we approach it the same way.

Rebuilding Kitchens and Bathrooms in Older Homes

Plenty of homes in Steveston, Seafair, Broadmoor and Riverdale still have the kitchens and bathrooms they were built with decades ago, with small rooms, closed-in layouts and fixtures that are hard to keep up. When we rework these rooms, we can move plumbing, open up walls and plan the space around how you cook, clean up and get ready in the morning. If your home is in one of these areas, we'd be glad to come by and talk through what could change.
