"I got several proposals from different companies to address my basement flooding and foundation issues. Caleb, with Classic Home Advisors, was the best from the very beginning. He understood the issue and explained to me a few options available to me to address the issues with my basement flooding. The proposal was clear and indicated exactly what and how the work was going to be performed. It took 1 week from start to finish and throughout the execution of the project, I was kept informed of their progress. More important than everything, I already can tell that the repairs to my basement were successful. We have had 2 main rain events since they finished the work and the basement is dry. The foundation repairs looks solid. Iâ m extremely happy with the final outcome of my basement project. Classic Home Advisors did an outstanding job. I have no reservations in recommending them for any of your water proofing projects, or for that matter, any home improvement projects."

"I selected Armour over other contractors bids for my basement remodel and I am very happy that chose them. During the bidding process they answered all of my questions quickly and thoroughly, their proposal was thorough and clear, and they were happy to discuss my ideas, thoughts and concerns. The crew that did the work was fantastic. Those guys are pros. The scope of work included all new framing and drywall (up to code, unlike before they came in), replacing that damn stucco ceiling with new drywall, upgrading the bathroom and kitchenette, new flooring, new basement door and replacing the ancient basement window, plus upgrades to the interior basement stairs and bathroom exhaust fans. Everything passed inspection and I am a happy customer. I would hire Armour again in a heartbeat. Many thanks to Rob, Christina, Rudolfo and everyone who worked on the project."

"When I started down the path of remodeling my 2 outdated bathrooms, I had no idea what to expect. My two main criteria were fair price and good workmanship. Abode Construction delivered this and more! Scott provides top notch work, respectful and capable crew, quality customer care, and advice, all for a competitive price. His team, from the estimate to changes for the project through completion of the bathrooms, make the client feel valued. Did everything go as planned? Absolutely not. Some events were unavoidable (e.g. supply delays) but some could have been avoided. However, Scott made sure that we were whole at the end of the day and made good on his 100% guaranteed satisfaction. I now have two updated, modern bathrooms that we all LOVE! I will be using Abode Construction for future projects and highly recommend them to others."

Your galley kitchen needs adequate clearance around any island installation to maintain functionality. Most galley kitchens lack sufficient width for traditional islands, as these layouts prioritize efficiency in smaller spaces.
If your kitchen has an unusual width, consult with a kitchen designer who can evaluate your specific dimensions and recommend appropriate solutions. For narrower spaces, consider alternatives like rolling carts or narrow work tables that provide additional surface area without permanently restricting movement.
Kitchen remodels require six to 10 weeks for completion, though timelines vary based on project scope and material availability. Simple updates like cabinet refinishing and countertop replacement might finish within a few weeks, while comprehensive renovations involving structural changes often extend beyond two months.
Planning stages add approximately four weeks before construction begins. Maintaining clear communication with your contractor and ordering materials early helps prevent unnecessary delays.
Common errors include insufficient clearance between opposing countertops, inadequate lighting that creates shadowy work areas, and poor storage planning that leaves countertops cluttered. Some homeowners select oversized appliances that overwhelm the space or invest in expensive features that don't address fundamental workflow issues.
Careful planning, accurate measurements, and consultation with experienced professionals help avoid these pitfalls and ensure your renovation successfully addresses your kitchen's specific challenges.
Whether expansion makes sense depends on your home's layout, your budget, and your long-term plans. Combining a galley kitchen with neighboring spaces creates more open, flexible layouts that many buyers prefer. However, removing walls involves substantial costs, particularly if they contain plumbing, electrical systems, or structural elements.
Sometimes, optimizing your existing galley layout through better storage solutions and lighting proves more cost-effective than expansion. Consult with a contractor to evaluate specific costs for your situation.
Effective galley kitchen lighting combines multiple sources to eliminate shadows and create visual spaciousness. Overhead fixtures provide general illumination, while under-cabinet lighting illuminates work surfaces directly. Consider recessed ceiling fixtures that don't protrude into limited headspace.
Lighting with dimming capabilities allows adjustment for different activities. Reflective surfaces like glass tile backsplashes or glossy cabinet finishes help bounce light throughout the space, reducing the corridor effect common in galley layouts.
