"We had a great experience working with Top Bros construction and remodeling. They fully removed our tile and wood flooring and installed LVP that we had provided. They also installed new trim and baseboards throughout, which look great. They were timely and efficient. We are very happy with the outcome!"

"We are in the middle of a first floor remodel, which I think is more relevant than a review done at the end of the project when everything is new and shiny, because we are really in the thick of it right now. We are living totally upstairs and can t use our first floor at all because of the kitchen remodel and taking down walls, moving a bathroom, etc. Yet I can honestly say, Alex and his crew are phenomenal. They are here 7-5 M-F and have worked quite a few Saturdays to keep our project moving. They are super knowledgeable, easy to be around, honest, conscientious and neat. Alex is always available and checks in with us in person and on the phone frequently. My only regret is that I haven t let Alex make all of our design decisions from the start. He says he s not a designer, but he flips house on the side and the houses he flips are GORGEOUS. When he shows us pictures of his work as examples we find ourselves saying- make our house look exactly like that! He s like Chip and Joanna Gaines rolled into one with a contemporary eye, but he can work with any style. He really knows his stuff inside and out from demolition to framing, installation, design, you name it! We ve hired other companies before, and interviewed quite a few for this project, but Quintessential takes the cake. Best decision ever!!!"

"We are so impressed with the whole team at Regency. They were very professional and knowledgeable from designing our kitchen through the remodel. We liked that they had their own crew of tradesman who were all highly skilled in their area. Any questions or concerns we had were addressed right away and answered/fixed. Everyone who came to our house was respectful and showed up on time. Plus, the project stayed within the budget and timeline which was great."

"Titans was absolutely amazing. From start to finish we had no complaints. After interviewing several companies, we knew Titans was the one we wanted to use from the first meeting. They completely remodeled our kitchen and bathroom and the quality was phenomenal. The customer service was also first class, always willing to help and go above and beyond the call of duty. Would highly recommend this company. We didn’t just find a wonderful contractor, but we gained a life long friend."

FAQs for kitchen remodel projects in Lake Bluff, 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.
