Mini-Remodel

We started a small remodel a few weeks ago. Instead of replacing all the cabinets and countertops, the client chose to take out a wall and install an island an open a few more walls. The rest of the kitchen and flooring will follow in a few years. This a good example of prioritizing and working within a set budget.

These days it's common for an island to be a different color than the rest of the cabinets so it won't stand out later that the project was done is phases.

Here's the before:






Here's the almost finished after:




Big difference!!!!!

Seamless sink...

There is a new sink on the market that has been called "revolutionary." The Affluence Seamless Sink is making waves in the kitchen and bath industry. It won the prestigious Best of Competition at KBIS (Kitchen and Bath Industry Show) 2009.

People are talking about it because there is no seam around the drain. Typical sinks have an unsightly seam around the drain fitting. This spot is notorious for catching all sorts of debris and breeding germs.





The new Affluence Seamless Sink eliminates the problem area. It makes for a much more streamlined look and is much more attractive as well as sanitary. Just look at the difference.




There are also more problems the Seamless Sink addresses. The strainer basket fits in both sides of a two bowl sink. It fits in the drain and the garbage disposal. Installation of the drain and disposal is reduced by 20-60 minutes and is very easy. There is a video on the Affluence website that shows the install complete in 90 seconds.

If you are remodeling your kitchen, this is one product you definitely need to consider. It will make cleaning much easier. Once it catches on with designers and homeowners, it will be a very hot product.
