My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Hi-Def Walnut Before and After

10 years ago
This stately styled kitchen is hi-def Walnut in a vintage style. The countertops in a luxurious quartz Zodaiq give a sophisticated look and lighten up the room. The backsplash routed Corian in an offset diamond pattern.

The pendant lighting gives off plenty of light for prep work and illuminate the extra large island. An extra sink helps with entertaining and preparing meals.

    Hi Bev! Glad you like it! Yes, the 2 upper pictures are the 'afters'. We refaced the wall cabinets and replaced the island. The homeowners (with multiple cooks) needed the extension. Not to mention this is where the family gathers.

    The countertops are Zodiaq quartz in Corriander. The backsplash is routed Corian in an Offset-Diamond patter. The color is Cottage Lane. The homeowners love their new kitchen and it's new color palette!

      I do not think you could have chosen a better and most beautiful wood in the world then walnut :o)
      It is sooo great to see the oak wood kitchens are finally gone.
      Great job.

      4'x6' slightly larger than you're average island but they homeowners just love the extra storage and prep area. Very funcional.
