Kitchen Remodel

Years: 2018-2019
Time: 400 hours

Skills: Tilework, Carpentry, Woodworking, Electrical, Plumbing
Cost: $28,000

I removed a wall and transformed my kitchen with high-quality materials. By doing all the work myself (except countertop installation), I saved tons of money and could add many extras like floor-to-ceiling tile and cement backer board (instead of plywood) around the dishwasher to make it quieter. The pantry drawer sliders are rated for 200 lbs to easily hold & slide a full load of cans and jars.
