Orinda Kitchen Afters











We removed small back room. A new ceiling beam was added to raise ceiling to small gable Windows were upgraded and a new french door. Entrance from family room was enlarged and door to hall was closed off, too. A island with a display front, an open cabinet above sink, all add to the charm!

Orinda Kitchen Befores







This Sleepy Hollow home had seen better days. The kitchen still had the 1940"s metal cabinets. But what was truly a crime was the layout. A tiny kitchen with a small back room and an added on porch on the side. What a mess!

Classic Master Bath After










The new tub deck flows into shower now to make a bench. The tile on the floor works with the tile in the shower. Layout now uses much more of the space and improved the storage!

Classic Master Bath Before







This layout was a challenge! The builder had put in a huge deck for the tub. It was over sized to the point of being unable to clean without crawling on your knees quite a ways. In remodeled bath, tub and shower are in a line, saving on moving expensive plumbing. Vanities we joined by going round an outside corner. A freestanding linen replaced a cramped built in closet.A better use of space was achieved in the "afters".
