Another fun kitchen

Just another fun kitchen remodel we finished a few months back

There where lots of electrical demons on this one. I had to call my electrician to fix all the bad wiring so we could stay on schedule.

-11 ungrounded j. boxes just in the kitchen attic

-Hot nuetrals

-can lights wired with 22 gauge speaker wire.....the wire was hot to the touch, I'm surprised the house didnt burn down

- uncapped live circuits just laying in the attic.



This house was seriously due for a remodel.........check out the pics:


The mess




Kitchen before:






All framed...load bearing walls removed, new plumbing, wiring, mechanical

After (almost done)








Some utensil dividers we made for them just for the heck of it with the extra material we had laying around





Nice thing to have for a blind space cabinet (almost finished with the install in this pic)

Holly 1985 to 2008, what a difference!!

On a side note: That is a little can light crazy there!!

I have been accused of too much light, where I say would you rather the alternative? They can always use the dimmer.
