"Benton Inc. redid two of our bathrooms, demoing each bathroom down the studs and redoing the sanitary and intake lines, putting in new subflooring, walls, tiling, tub/shower fixtures, electrical, etc. The communication with Benton was the best I have had with a contractor. They talked through every detail, documented choices for materials and ensured my wife and me were making selections on time. They were very transparent about budget, how material selections would impact the overall cost. Any questions we had were answered in a timely manner. The quality of the work was fantastic and my family is very happy with our new bathrooms. Excellent price, great quality and fantastic communication throughout the process. I will be using Benton Inc again for any future remodeling needs at my property."

Managed Renovations engages with our clients using a couple different business models depending on their needs, preferences, and level of desired participation in some of the required tasks involved with most projects. Some of our clients choose to use our unique construction management services business model to build their project that is distinctive from the typical fixed-price general contractor (GC) approach to construction. For those clients we provide fee-based construction management consulting services to schedule, manage (on-site), and review all the work that our clients choose to have us handle for the project. We connect and contract our clients with our seasoned collection of licensed and insured tradesmen and subcontractors (and our own in-house carpenters) that will provide each of their fixed price costs. Alternatively, some of our clients prefer to have their project built using a typical fixed-price general contractor (GC) approach to construction.
"We recently had our kitchen remodeled by Managed Renovations. The experienceâ from start to finishâ was nothing short of amazing and the finished kitchen is spectacular, exceeding our expectations. The Managed Renovations team, Michael and Natalie, and their subcontractorsâ carpenters, electricians, plumbers, and floor installersâ displayed a level of professionalism, craftsmanship, and attention to detail that was extraordinary. They turned a small, poorly designed 1970s kitchen into a large, beautiful, functional space that is now the heart of our home. Although the project involved demolishing walls and removing the existing cabinets, appliances, and flooring (and replacing them with new cabinets, appliances, and flooring), they accomplished this with minimal disruption to our lives, always leaving our home and the work area clean at the end of the day. Managed Renovations communicated with us throughout, (we could also track every aspect of the project online), making sure we were comfortable with every decision. Their recommendations, whether about design elements or vendors, were always â spot on.â There were no surprises. They delivered what they promised when it was promised, completing our kitchen on time and without any unanticipated costs. Managed Renovations' dedication to excellence and customer satisfaction is truly unmatched. If youâ re looking for a general contractor who will deliver outstanding results, look no further than Managed Renovations."

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.
