At Mountaineer Kitchens & Baths, we take pride in turning outdated kitchens into beautiful, functional spaces designed for everyday living. Our recent kitchen remodel for the Wright family in Kearneysville, WV, was an extensive transformation that blended modern aesthetics with improved functionality. With custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and upgraded lighting, this kitchen now serves as a stunning centerpiece of the home.
A Complete Kitchen Overhaul
The Wright kitchen remodel was designed to create an open, practical, and stylish space. Here’s how we brought this transformation to life:
Structural and Electrical Upgrades
- Bulkhead Removal: We removed the outdated bulkheads above the cabinets to create a more open and modern design. If any hidden plumbing, electrical, or HVAC components were discovered, we were prepared to relocate them as needed.
- New Hardwood Flooring: The existing granite tile flooring was removed and replaced with a mix of 2 ¼” and 4″ hardwood flooring that seamlessly integrates with the rest of the home. A mitered border at the transition creates a visually appealing design.
- Updated Electrical Work:
- Dedicated circuits for new appliance locations.
- All ceiling recessed lights were converted to energy-efficient LED trims.
- GFCI receptacles installed in all required locations, including under the sink for the motion-activated faucet.
- Rough-ins for LED under-cabinet and in-cabinet lighting, enhancing both functionality and ambiance.
Premium Materials and High-End Features
The Wright kitchen remodel was built with premium materials, ensuring both durability and timeless elegance.
Custom Kraftmaid Cabinetry
- Design & Finish: The Wrights selected Kraftmaid Vantage cabinets in a combination of Island/Harbor and Canvas finishes for a two-tone modern aesthetic.
- Construction: All-plywood construction with soft-close doors and drawers ensures durability and ease of use.
- Custom Details: A valance over the sink area adds a unique design feature, and custom shelving in the walk-in pantry provides additional storage.
Elegant Quartz Countertops
- Material: Alleanza Quartz in Statuary Extra was chosen for its timeless, luxurious appeal.
- Edge Profile: Waterfall edges for a seamless, contemporary look.
- Full-Height Backsplash: The quartz backsplash extends from the countertop to the upper cabinets, creating a sleek, modern design.
- Sink & Faucet:
- Kohler Whitehaven Apron Front Sink (Model K-6489) in white.
- Moen Weymouth U by Moen Smart Faucet in Spot-Resistant Stainless, featuring motion-sense technology for touchless convenience.
- Moen EXL100C Garbage Disposal with built-in lighting.
Finishing Touches for a Perfect Look
Every detail was carefully executed to ensure a polished, high-end finish.
- Paint & Trim Work:
- Walls painted with Sherwin-Williams Super Paint in a satin sheen.
- Ceilings finished with Sherwin-Williams Masterhide Flat White for a clean, bright look.
- Trim and doors painted in semi-gloss white to match the home’s existing finishes.
- Lighting Enhancements:
- LED recessed trims installed in the ceiling for bright, efficient lighting.
- Flush-mounted island and sink fixtures were carefully placed for both aesthetics and functionality.
- Dimmable LED in-cabinet lighting added for a touch of elegance.
- Hardware & Accessories:
- High-end cabinet hardware in 6” and 3” pulls for a modern yet functional finish.
