Kitchen Remodel

This is a great example of a kitchen remodel balancing cost and visual appeal. The kitchen cabinets were in good condition but the wallpaper and oak did not suit the owner's taste. The wallpaper was stripped and the walls painted. Then the cabinets were updated with paint, new hardware, addition of beadboard to the base cabinet end panels and other decorative additions. The countertop, floor, sink and faucet were also replaced. The crown molding adds a nice contrast above the cabinets.

"We have been spoiled rotten these last few years by the outstanding service that Rich Kiefer has delivered on a wide variety of projects, large and small. Our broad list of home repair and improvement projects had required us to enlist the help of a parade of tradespeople and other professionals, none of whom met our satisfaction threshold for repeat visits. All of that changed when we retained Rich. Rich has helped us with many jobs, from extensive kitchen and bathroom renovations to small jobs, such as fixing a drawer. We were always happy with the results. We found Rich to be skilled, knowledgeable, thoughtful in his consideration of our needs, able to come up with inventive alternatives and solutions to challenging problems, reliable and trustworthy, neat, and reasonably priced. As a bonus, Rich is pleasant and easy to work with - he is a tough act to follow. With Rich's impending relocation, we must reluctantly resume our quest for a reliable, highly competent individual to help us with our diverse household projects. The combination of skills and qualities that Rich has offered us will be difficult to duplicate."
