"I am very pleased with the work done by Asko and his team. I have hired EAH Custom Construction for two different projects: 1) They built a custom door for my laundry closet because standard doors did not fit in that space and it did not have a door frame. The only options were a barn door or the two leaf custom door that Asko built. 2) The floor tiling in the guest bathroom needed to be redone. I needed a plumber and a tiling company, and EAH does both. Asko even recommended the tile. His team was very respectful and professional."

"I hired ABC Home Expert to remodel my entire first floor, and I’m very happy with how everything turned out. We spent around $63,000 including materials and cabinets, and the results really transformed our home. The project included remodeling a small guest bathroom and laundry area, replacing all the flooring in the living room, dining room, and kitchen, updating the kitchen cabinets and countertops, and painting the entire kitchen. They also added can lights, which made a big difference in how bright and welcoming the space feels. One thing I really appreciated was the support I received from their team throughout the process. Before starting, they worked on four different design options to make sure we found the perfect fit for our needs and style. They were professional, patient, and always available to answer questions or make adjustments when needed. Overall, it was a smooth experience, it took a little more than two months. I am glad it is over and I can enjoy my home. I would definitely recommend ABC Home Expert to anyone planning a home remodel."

FAQs for kitchen remodel projects in Evanston, IL

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.
