Kitchen Remodeling in Charlestown, Boston MA
Most kitchens don't need gutting. Refinished cabinets and fresh surfaces get you most of the way for a fraction of the cost.
How this plays out in Charlestown
Interior work in Charlestown is shaped by what the buildings are. Federal and Greek Revival rowhouses from the 1800s, brick and clapboard, plus converted Navy Yard buildings and a band of triple-deckers toward Sullivan Square. Owner-occupants in the historic district who are used to a process, plus Navy Yard condo associations.
The way we work it
Most kitchens don't need gutting. Refinished cabinets and fresh surfaces get you most of the way for a fraction of the cost.
Most kitchens we're called for don't need gutting. Cabinet boxes are usually sound, the layout is fixed by the plumbing, and what's actually dated is the finish. Refinished doors, new hardware, fresh walls and trim gets you most of the way at a fraction of the cost.
Where these jobs go wrong
Spending the budget on cabinetry and running out before the walls, ceiling and trim get done. The new cabinets then sit against tired surfaces and the room still reads dated.
