welcome from owners Dakota and Emily Stewart We are a dynamic duo with a passion for home remodeling, design, and art. Our journey began 7 years ago when Dakota, inspired by his father's remodeling company, decided to embark on his own entrepreneurial path. Dakota's love for construction and remodeling started at a young age. He was fortunate to have his father as a mentor, who taught him everything he needed to know about the industry, from the basics to the intricate details. With his experience, Dakota is not afraid to take on any remodeling project. From building houses from the ground up to existing spaces, there's nothing in the remodeling field that he's scared to face. With Dakota behind your back, anything is possible. Emily,, brings her artistic flair and design expertise to our business. Her passion for art began at the tender age of 7, where her talent for murals and design was evident. Over the years, Emily has honed her skills with her art being showcased in museums.
"DO NOT HIRE THIS CONTRACTOR! This guy has defaulted his own contract several times then threatens to sue us for defamation for bad reviews iv given him! We were told it would take 2 weeks to complete all the work we paid to have done, ITS GOING ON 4 MONTHS! He took the deposit of $11k then 2 days later asked for $6k more, he could not afford the LVP flooring. That was the first time he defaulted. He has more excuses than any contractor iv ever heard and it's all because he cant control his finances! He has also never even looked at our house physically. He has subcontractors come look at the jobs needing done, that's fine but why are we paying this guy if he does none of the work himself? He has no employees he pays the cheapest people to do the work and pockets your money. This project started in beginning of April the job is still not done today and it's June 14th! I is been an absolute nightmare working with this conartist. All his reviews are paid for or forced by contract!"

Rick was easy to get a hold of and communication was always smooth. Clarity and reviews of project details were done regularly. We had to do some tricky things to install a washer and dryer, and his team was always open to other options which helped us to keep our costs within budget.

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.
