## Community Q&A

**Q: Ideas for countertop with re-purposed kitchen cabinets** *(in The Old House)*

We have gutted and remodeled our 100 year old kitchen with 9’ ceilings. I am going to use a section of the old stacked cabinets along a whole wall in a sewing/craft/studio room with 7’ ceilings. I’ll also be adding 12” deep shelves on each end to fill the wall. Because of the height the uppers will sit directly on the bottoms. I’m not sure what I should use for the 12” of countertop. I‘m Hoping for a built-in look and not a kitchen cabinet look, so worried traditional kitchen countertop will not look right. I am painting them a gloss navy. I could use wood and paint it the same navy or stain it. Or maybe there is a fun laminate that would work? Trying to keep the budget down. I appreciate any ideas as I’ve had a hard time finding many inspiration pictures. Thanks!

A: We used a piece of $30 piece 3/4 plywood painted the same color as the cabinets as a countertop for the mudroom in our old house. It looks built in. We also needed something very thin, a standard thickness butcher block or other counter would have been too thick.
The arrangement is different that what you’re doing but I think it gives you a good idea of what it would look like.

**Q: Is a micro master bathroom worth it?** *(in Remodeling)*

We live in a 4 bedroom house with only one shared family bathroom. Our master bedroom does not have an ensuite bathroom so I have been toying with the idea of turning our closet (a basic double closet with bi-fold doors) into a micro bathroom. When I say micro, I mean something like the picture I've uploaded or possibly even smaller. We would steal a tiny bit from the bedroom behind.
I guess my question would be: is it worth it to have a super tiny ensuite bathroom or would it be annoying and too cramped?
We could also take over a bedroom completely for a bigger ensuite bathroom but that would force the kids to share a room which I am not sure is worth it.
What are your thoughts? How important IS a private master bathroom?
Thanks!

A: We added a 5x8 bathroom in our 1920’s house. We stole the space from a finished attic closet in the primary bedroom. We also have an angled ceiling which also limits usable floor space. The work was fully permitted and passed all inspections in our city.
The addition of another full bath makes such a difference in our day to day life. On paper it doesn’t add much if you base it on a appraisal (I think the actual number is about $5000 and we spent way more than that) but there is a large pool of buyers who won’t even look at a home where they have to share a bath. Unless they plan an building an addition.
Totally worth it! FYI unless you already have existing plumbing/sewer below or behind the new bath it can be surprising expensive even with simple materials.

**Q: Replacing a built-in refrigerator with a standard counter-depth optio?** *(in Appliances)*

We have a old built-in refrigerator (need To look up exactly how old) but the freezer has stopped working twice in a month. The first fix was a fan replacement- great, easy! TBD on what the next might be but I’m worried this fridge is nearing the end of its life and I don’t really want to spend 8-10k on a nee built-in fridge. Any thoughts on being able to replace with a standard counter-depth fridge and having someone frame it out and put cabinets on top??

A: I think you could use a Fisher Paykel integrated fridge and then have fillers made to make up the width and height difference. Get the SS doors.
The fridge is about 4K and then another 1-2k in carpentry. It’s totally doable and with the right trim carpenter  would look very intentional and high-end.

**Q: Fisher & Paykel integrated refrigerators, anyone?** *(in Appliances)*

I desperately want a seamless hidden fridge in our new house, but can't afford Bosch, etc. F&amp;P makes a decent-looking 72&quot; x 36&quot; model that's under $4,000. I'm not too concerned about the capacity since we are just 2 and have extra freezer and fridge elsewhere. But I don't want to build in an integrated appliance if it's crappy and bound to fail... does anyone have any experience with these who can review them for me? Thanks!

A: Our refrigerator was installed this month. It’s gorgeous and fits like a glove.
The freezer drawer takes getting used to. I’ve just never had one before. It is small but everything is easy to access. No bags of frozen veggies hidden behind the ice cream!
The fridge feels like just the right size. It discourages hoarding of condiments for sure. Being able to see everything in once glance, because it is shallow, helps with organization.
The vent at the floor is a little annoying. It’s a grey plastic vent cover which makes it stand out against our dark cabinets. I wish it was stainless steel to better blend in. I’m debating painting it the cabinet color. If I know it wasn’t bad for the ventilation I would run the baseboard in front.
Hope this helps!

**Q: Sub Zero refrigerator** *(in Appliances)*

What is the current thought on matching cabinet panels for refrigerator v.s. the stainless? Which is more current and has more aesthetic lasting power?

A: If you’re not also changing your cabinets, I’d say get the SS panels. You have raised panel doors and those can look dated in a new kitchen. If you’re getting new cabinets with a Shaker or slab door, then fully integrated paneled would my recommendation.

**Q: Do I need to buy this?** *(in Appliances)*

I am wanting to purchase this refrigerator ( Fisher &amp; Paykel Professional Series  RS36A72J1N ) and the site is telling me that it is required that I buy this door panel separately for $400. Does it not come with doors???

A: You’ll likely need handles as well. Not sure if the online retailer specified that or not. It’s really gorgeous and a bargain for an truly integrated (as opposed to both the built-in or basic counter depth fridge) but make sure you understand what you’re ordering.
Isn’t there a dealer in your local area? Purchase from them and you’ll get their expertise, in addition to access to their installers.
