High-Quality Kitchen Remodeling in Carmichael, CA by HEX
Hex General Contractors recently completed a full kitchen remodel in Carmichael, CA, giving the space a much-needed upgrade with sleek, modern elements while maintaining its warm, inviting feel. This was a fun project and we’re excited to show off all the work that was done. Let’s dive into the specifics of the work we did, and why each choice was made to optimize both the functionality and beauty of this kitchen.
Key Elements of the Kitchen Remodel:
1. Custom Herringbone Tile Backsplash:
We installed a beautiful white herringbone-pattern tile backsplash, giving the kitchen a bold yet refined focal point. The intricate pattern adds texture and visual interest, making the space feel more dynamic without overwhelming the clean, modern design.
Benefits:
Durable & Easy to Clean: Tile is perfect for kitchens because it stands up to heat, moisture, and daily wear while being easy to maintain.
Elevated Design: The herringbone pattern is a sophisticated twist on the classic subway tile look, bringing a touch of elegance to the kitchen.
2. Quartz Countertops Installation:
We replaced the old countertops with stunning white quartz that features soft veining, giving the kitchen a fresh and luxurious finish. Quartz is both beautiful and incredibly durable, providing a long-lasting solution for busy kitchens.
Benefits:
Low Maintenance: Quartz is resistant to stains, scratches, and heat, making it the ideal surface for homeowners who want beauty without the hassle.
Seamless Flow: The sleek countertops contribute to the kitchen’s clean lines, enhancing the overall minimalist aesthetic.
3. New Appliances:
This remodel includes the installation of high-end stainless steel KitchenAid appliances, including a six-burner gas range and double oven, which elevate both the functionality and style of the space.
Benefits:
Professional Grade: These top-tier appliances give the homeowners the performance they need for cooking and entertaining, all while enhancing the kitchen’s modern look.
Easy-to-Clean Surfaces: Stainless steel is a favorite in kitchens due to its durability and ease of cleaning, perfect for a high-traffic space.
4. New Cabinets and Cabinet Hardware:
We installed brand-new custom white shaker cabinets, creating ample storage and a fresh, streamlined look. Gold hardware was selected to complement the bright cabinetry, adding a subtle touch of elegance.
Benefits:
Maximized Storage: The custom cabinetry was designed to provide more functional storage space, with soft-close doors and drawers for added convenience.
Timeless Appeal: Shaker cabinets have a classic yet modern style that fits any kitchen and will remain on-trend for years to come.
5. Upgraded Lighting:
To brighten up the space, we installed modern recessed lighting and added pendants above the island for a stylish and functional lighting solution. The strategic placement of the lighting ensures that every corner of the kitchen is well-lit, making it more functional and inviting.
Benefits:
Balanced Illumination: The recessed lights provide even, shadow-free lighting throughout the kitchen, while the pendants add an eye-catching feature over the island.
Energy-Efficient: Modern LED lighting is energy-efficient, reducing power consumption without sacrificing brightness or warmth.
6. Fresh Paint for Walls and Trim:
A fresh coat of soft gray paint was applied to the walls, enhancing the kitchen’s bright and open feel. This neutral tone complements the white cabinetry and quartz countertops, while the black-framed windows and fixtures provide striking contrast.
Benefits:
Clean, Modern Aesthetic: The neutral wall color allows the other design elements, such as the backsplash and cabinetry, to stand out without overwhelming the space.
Durable & Easy to Maintain: The high-quality paint used ensures the walls remain resistant to stains and scuffs, perfect for a high-traffic area like the kitchen.
Total Remodel Time:
This kitchen remodel took us 7 weeks to complete, from demo to final inspection. The design process was not included, as that timeframe was due to the owner’s preference and availability. That usually includes a lot of brainstorming and adjustments and is something that our in-house designers really enjoy doing. Our goal is to ensure our clients don’t feel rushed and are being thoroughly informed throughout the entire process in order to end up with a kitchen that they’re truly pleased with and will enjoy for a long time to come.
