Renovations from PoPville – Kitchen Vol. 24

I always enjoy sharing renovation projects whether it be kitchen, bathroom, yards or anywhere really. If you have a renovation project you’d be willing to share please send a few before and after photos to princeofpetworth(at)gmail.com. Please also send a few details like which contractor you used, roughly how much it cost, what appliances you used, how long the project took and any other info you think might be useful.

“We just put up the back splash up over the weekend, but we remodeled our entire kitchen last Sept. and did all the work ourselves. I have also attached pictures of the kitchen before and during the remodel.

We had originally got an estimate of $25,000 which was really high and did not include materials, so we decided to do the work ourselves! We ended up having to tear down the old ceiling because it was slopping and found a new mess in the ceiling (we replaced plumbing and washer was leaking from the second floor).

We ended up spending around $13,000 total for the materials and the labor was of course free. Our appliances are GE Profile for Dishwasher, microwave, and oven and Samsung counter depth frig. We got our counter top from the Granite outlet and our cabinets are kraftmaid.”
