We’re a local kitchen remodeling contractor, specializing in custom renovation, including layout change, space enhancement, functionality addition & overall style upgrade. In this way, a food preparation area is made more user-friendly and spacious by installing new appliances, fittings, accessories, and by redesigning the existing island with stone countertops. This is how a home kitchen gets a complete makeover, after lying in neglect for years.
In any food preparation area, it is the storage cabinetry design & installation which is the key, without which the kitchen is incomplete and looks unorganized. Kitchen cabinets are quintessential for storing all the items in a concealed manner, thus effectively decluttering the space. In order to design stylish cabinets, you must hire the services of a licensed San Jose kitchen remodel contractor like us, as we can help design as well as install stylish looking wooden cabinets on the walls and under the countertop. Storage kitchen cabinets can be either made of hardwood, plywood or glass with wooden frames. If you’re looking for a premium finish and have the budget, go for hardwood cabinets. Else, choose plywood, as it is a cost-effective option. Our professionals can help select from a variety of kitchen storage cabinet designs that perfectly blend with your home interiors and surroundings. In fact, we also help carve out new space from within the existing area, and install cabinets for increasing the overall storage space. In this way, your kitchen looks neat, spacious, organized and clutter-free.
If your food preparation area has become worn-out after years of continuous service, it’s time to think of a full kitchen layout design change. In this way, you can get more space to move around freely and install new appliances that can make your work easy. Kitchen appliances like a modern barbeque oven, a dishwasher, a refrigerator, a stove with an exhaust mechanism, wash basin & sinks, etc. all add to the overall functionality. But, when you plan to change the existing layout, it is usually thinking about getting access to extra space for comfortable cooking, washing, storing and dining. An L-shaped or a Peninsula style layout can obviously create more space than a traditional island design that is in a rectangular or square shape. If you have ample space, then go for a rectangular island, else think about changing it to an L-shaped design. This is how we at Goodman Home Remodeling are transforming old kitchens into fully functional and spacious working areas.

For any kitchen remodel big or small, it is imperative to choose the right kitchen fittings & accessories that make food preparation easy. First, you need to look out for old, outdated and worn-out fittings that need immediate replacement. Thereafter, go for selecting premium quality kitchen accessories that not only looks stylish, yet lasts long. It is not necessary that stylish looking kitchen fittings would cost more. We can help choose from a variety of brands that perfectly fits your requirement and which beautifully blends with the interior decor and style of your house. In this way, your home kitchen is all set to host your friends, guests and colleagues.
The selection of quality kitchen accessories holds the key because, if you go for installing sub-standard items at cheap prices, they would not last long, and you have to think about another kitchen remodel in a short time. Therefore, always go for premium fittings that are a ‘value-for-money’ proposition. Kitchen that have become 8-10 years old, must opt for a full remodel plan, wherein install only quality tapware, faucets, wash basin, sinks, backsplash & tiles that can easily last for another 15-20 years, without requiring any kind of replacement. So, you can consult with one of our kitchen remodel experts and select only the premium-quality materials that are hard-wearing, yet stylish.
Yes, you would require a local government permit for a kitchen renovation, if you perform any kind of structural changes or modification to the overall layout, by adding new plumbing lines, tearing down walls & partitions. Else, only clinical changes do not require a permit.
In most cases, given standard flooring heights, you will install the storage cabinets before the floor covering. Floor covering, or finish flooring, is the surface that you see and walk on.
