So Ive briefly touched on this before but I flip houses on the side and generally do most of the work myself. During COVID with no projects I convinced my wife to help me completely remodel the kitchen. The only work we didnt do was electrical, granite install, and we got an old roommate to help install cabinets as a part of partial debt payoff to us. In February when we kicked his ass out after he hadnt paid rent in well over a year (most of it was going to booze). It sucked because he was basically my best man at our wedding.
before/after
We removed the wall between the old kitchen and dining room. Relocated the plumbing that ran upstairs
removed all the old flooring (hardwood on one side and tile/linoleum on the other).
Subfloor was in terrible shape. We spent a week getting it flat
husky. incredibly confused husky
drywall patching.
Tile work. For those that dont know. always for the love of god finish your ceiling and wall work before putting in your finished floor. Otherwise you get paint in your grout.
Always confused husky. She is not an intelligent creature. But full of energy and fluffiness.
Final kitchen.
Island is 10 ft by 3ft. The entire new kitchen is 27x12. Its dark in the background by we also put up Smart controlled curtains so we can block off our living room and turn it into a movie room.
My bar. Cherry board on top, Wormy maple in the middle, walnut on the bottom. The bottles pick to display were done so from a display perspective. all of the good stuff is in the basement, and all of the other typical drink stuff is in the cabinet below.
