In August 2023, a full-scale kitchen renovation was successfully completed in Dorchester, MA. The project began with the demolition of the existing kitchen, including all cabinets, walls, and structural elements, as shown in the initial construction phase images. The entire kitchen and adjacent dining room were rewired to meet current electrical code standards, ensuring a safe and modernized infrastructure. New plumbing was also installed, bringing all systems up to code.
The renovation involved extensive framing work, and new insulation was added to enhance energy efficiency and fire safety. New drywall was installed throughout the space, followed by plastering and painting, which brought the space back to life. All cabinetry and countertops were replaced with modern designs, creating a clean, streamlined look, as seen in the completed kitchen images.
The project also included installing new hardwood flooring throughout the kitchen and dining area, finished with two coats of polyurethane for a smooth and durable surface. The floor, coupled with new trim and baseboards, added a touch of elegance and warmth to the overall aesthetic.
A new vinyl replacement window and a back door were installed, further enhancing the functionality and energy efficiency of the kitchen. The walls and ceiling were painted in fresh, neutral tones, complementing the new design features. One of the standout elements of this renovation was the installation of a beautiful, geometric tile backsplash behind the sink, adding a stylish focal point that contrasts against the sleek, white cabinetry.
Additional details of the project include installing a modern exhaust vent that was vented outside, and reinforcing the ceiling joists with new strapping for added structural integrity. This comprehensive remodel transformed the kitchen into a bright, functional, and aesthetically pleasing space, blending modern design elements with practical improvements.
