New Ripon Kitchen Remodel Complete!

Transforming an Outdated Space into a Modern Haven

When your kitchen begins to feel outdated, it’s more than just an aesthetic concern—it impacts how the space functions in your daily life. For this family on Davis Street in Ripon, California, their kitchen was ready for a change. With worn materials, limited storage solutions, and a design that no longer matched their needs, they turned to kitchen & bath CRATE to deliver a modern, functional space. This comprehensive Ripon kitchen remodel brought new life to their home, showcasing how the right updates can transform both style and utility.

Let’s explore the key aspects of this remodel, highlighting the cabinetry, countertops, sinks, appliances, fixtures, tile, and paint, which came together to create a beautiful and practical kitchen.

The Challenge: A Dated and Inefficient Space

The original kitchen design featured cabinetry and countertops that had seen better days. The space lacked modern conveniences and did not align with these homeowners’ vision for their home. The lighting was insufficient, storage options were limited, and the overall aesthetic felt stuck in a bygone era.

The goal was clear: to create a sleek, functional kitchen that blended timeless materials with thoughtful design. Kitchen & bath CRATE took on the challenge, delivering a stunning transformation on time, as always.

Cabinets: A Foundation of Functionality and Style

The cabinetry was a cornerstone of this remodel. The original red oak cabinets were retained and revitalized with fresh paint and hardware. Amerock Westerley knobs and drawer pulls in oil-rubbed bronze added a touch of elegance and tied the design together.

Additional modifications included:

Pantry Pull-Outs: Six new pull-out shelves were installed in the pantry, significantly enhancing storage and accessibility.
Trash Pull-Outs: A custom pull-out was added to the cabinetry, seamlessly integrating functionality while maintaining the kitchen’s clean lines.

These updates preserved the integrity of the original wood while elevating the overall design with modern details.

Countertops: Sleek and Durable

No kitchen remodel is complete without a countertop upgrade. For this project, the homeowners chose Bedrosians Classic White Jumbo slabs in a polished finish. These quartz countertops are known for their durability and timeless appeal. The countertops feature a mitered eased edge for a clean, sophisticated look, while their polished surface reflects light to make the space feel brighter and more expansive.

Additionally, the countertop material was extended to create a window sill, ensuring a cohesive design throughout the kitchen.

Sink and Faucet: Where Style Meets Practicality

The sink area was another focal point of this remodel. A Blanco Precis Silgranit undermount sink in Truffle was installed, offering both style and functionality. This spacious single-bowl sink is known for its durability and resistance to stains and scratches.

Paired with the sink is the Kohler Simplice faucet in Vibrant Stainless, featuring a high-arching spout for easy use. A matching soap dispenser was also installed, ensuring that the space remains clean and uncluttered.

Appliances: Upgraded for Modern Living

The appliances were another critical component of this kitchen upgrade. The homeowners opted for a Bosch HII8057U Range and a KMLS311HSS microwave, ensuring their kitchen had the latest technology. These high-performance appliances enhance cooking efficiency while seamlessly integrating into the design.

Fixtures: Attention to Detail

Details make the difference in any remodel, and the fixtures in this kitchen were chosen with care. From the oil-rubbed bronze cabinet hardware to the InSinkErator Badger 5 garbage disposal, every element was selected to balance form and function. The lighting was upgraded with six recessed wafer lights, offering a bright and inviting ambiance.

Tile: A Stylish Backsplash

To complement the quartz countertops, the backsplash features Bedrosians Celine Sage Matte tile in a herringbone pattern. This elegant tile adds texture and visual interest, tying together the overall design. The backsplash grout, TEC Power Grout in Driftwood, ensures durability and a polished finish.

Paint: Setting the Tone

The color palette was carefully chosen to enhance the kitchen’s new look. The cabinetry was painted in Sherwin-Williams Amazing Gray, providing a neutral yet warm backdrop. The walls and ceiling were finished in Sherwin-Williams Greek Villa, a soft white that brightens the space and highlights the details of the remodel.

The Result: A Functional and Beautiful Kitchen

The transformation achieved through this Ripon kitchen remodel is nothing short of remarkable. By combining thoughtful design with high-quality materials, kitchen & bath CRATE delivered a kitchen that not only meets but exceeds the homeowners’ expectations. Key highlights include:

Improved Functionality: The new cabinetry, pantry pull-outs, and appliances create a space that works effortlessly for daily life.
Elevated Aesthetics: The combination of quartz countertops, sage backsplash tile, and oil-rubbed bronze hardware creates a cohesive and timeless design.
Enhanced Lighting: Upgraded lighting ensures the kitchen is as inviting as it is practical.
