We envision warm and inviting kitchens, mornings talking over coffee, and evenings enjoying dinners with our families. But we find that our reality may not match the beautiful surroundings in our minds. We can make it all happen with a kitchen remodel, as our Sycamore clients discovered when they called on the professionals at Ken Spears Construction to help remodel their kitchen.
Project Overview
The Sycamore couple loved their home but wanted an updated look for their kitchen. It was essential to bring their dated kitchen up to date with updated kitchen cabinets and other touches. After their complimentary in-home consultation, our team developed a plan to brighten the kitchen, bring it up to date, and make it their dream space. We collaborated with the homeowners to select the perfect design elements, alter the room, and deliver a kitchen ideal for private breakfasts and entertaining guests.

How We Solved the Problem
Our Sycamore homeowners shared their desire to bring their kitchen style into the current decade. When we began our work, we focused on transforming the space, making it feel larger, and providing additional storage. We accomplished this by removing the soffits and taking the new cabinets to the ceiling.
We installed rustic hickory cabinetry, and new quartz countertops needed elements to complement the fresh look. These elements took the form of a new tile backsplash and a new sink and faucet. The new under cabinet lighting beautifully displays the character in the quartz and provides lighting useful for cooking and great for adding ambiance.
