Kitchen Remodel
Remodeling your kitchen is a large undertaking that takes expert planning. Unlike designing a kitchen for a new home construction, remodeling requires a solid understanding of the existing electrical and plumbing components, as well as a precise footprint of the kitchen. When choosing a cabinet company, you want a designer who can not only design a beautiful kitchen, but can ensure your new kitchen fits these components like a glove. If new cabinets are being installed around existing tile flooring, for example, the new kitchen must fit precisely within that tile footprint.
At Stellar Kitchen and Bath, we truly are remodeling experts. In addition to taking accurate measurements, our designers will offer guidance on what can and cannot be done with your cabinet, countertop, and flooring vision. We will pay close attention to all the important elements and offer alternate design suggestions, when needed.

Critical Remodeling Factors
Evaluate Kitchen Layout
The first step of the remodel process is the most important - understanding the space. An experienced kitchen designer will evaluate and understand what is behind and underneath the current cabinets before creating a new design. This includes the location of plumbing pipes and electrical as well as the footprint of the current flooring (especially if flooring isn't changing). If plumbing or electrical needs to be moved to fit the new kitchen design, this needs to be planned during this design phase. Once the old cabinets are removed (typically several days before the new ones arrive), any plumbing, electrical or drywall work can be completed in preparation for cabinet installation. We specialize in remodels to avoid surprises and make this process as seamless as possible.
Point of No Return
Once your old cabinets are removed, there is no turning back. If the new cabinets are not ordered correctly, you could be faced with flooring gaps or electrical/plumbing placement issues that could cause unexpected delays. An experienced cabinet pro will ensure issues like this are minimized by appropriate planning during the design phase. By choosing a company like Stellar Kitchen & Bath that has both cabinet knowledge and remodel knowledge, customers can save both time and money on their remodel project.
Moment of Truth
Once cabinets and countertops are completed, appliances can then be installed. This is often when you learn how well your cabinet designer planned your kitchen. Built in appliances such as double ovens and microwaves require custom cutouts and specific electrical locations. The cabinet designer is responsible for ensuring cabinets are made to the exact appliance specifications, as outlined in the appliance manual. Dishwasher and range openings must also be planned correctly to ensure a smooth fit.
