Day by Day Kitchen Remodel Timeline
(Note: We added an extra day to our normal 7-day process to accommodate the owner-request add-ons)
Here’s how we did it:
Day 1 – Demo Day! On this first day, we set up plastic walls to protect the home from dust, protected the path from the entry door to the kitchen with building paper, and then went to town removing the appliances, countertop, backsplash, plumbing fixtures and cabinet doors and drawers. We also reinforced the plywood sub-tops with steel straps to support the new granite counters. Toward the end of the day we created the template for the new countertops, which take a few days to fabricate off-site.
Day 2 – The cabinets and drawers at the cooktop were modified to accommodate the larger cooktop.
Day 3 – Since all the walls and the ceilings had been protected, our painters began preparing and priming the cabinets in the kitchen. Using a high-grade, oil-based primer, every inch of the kitchen cabinets were caulked, sanded and primed. This is the first (and perhaps most critical) step of creating a durable paint finish.
Day 4 – The painters then began refinishing the kitchen cabinets in this Modesto home. Two coats of Kelly-Moore Dura-poxy paint in Black Oak were applied to the thoroughly sanded and primed cabinets. This same priming and painting process was used on the doors and drawers, which are painted off-site in a climate-controlled paint booth for the highest possible quality.
Day 5 – The kitchenCRATE team was on site to install the beautiful Blanco Precis single bowl sink in Metallic Gray. Once the sink was installed, the countertop installation team arrived to install the Bedrosians River White granite countertops with a mitered edge.
Day 6 – The tile backsplash artisans were on site to install the Bedrosians Grace Sabbia 4″ x 12″ glossy ceramic tiles on the backsplash. This was grouted using Laticrete Sterling Silver grout.
Day 7 – Lastly, the kitchenCRATE team installed the homeowner’s appliances. The transformation then hit the home stretch with the installation of the freshly-painted cabinet doors and drawers. The final day of the project included an array of “touch-up” items: all outlets and switches were replaced, the Kohler Simplice faucet with a vibrant stainless finish was installed and the entire project was cleaned, top-to-bottom.
