"NIGHTMARE!! Buyer beware!! Do not use Bath Planet St. Charles, MO or Peoria, IL same owner. Believe me, I’m doing you a favor and saving you time and money. Where do I even start? First of all, they will say anything to get you to sign the paperwork. And I mean anything, including guaranteeing it to be done by a certain date if you sign today. We were not going to get it done this early but due to my upcoming hip replacement and their guarantee that it would be done before that surgery date, we signed. UGH! Well, mistakes started right away, including getting our phone number wrong and even though we called the office several times to correct, told everyone person that came out, they continued to get it wrong. I thought, it’s ok people makes mistakes but little did I know it was just the beginning. Starting with the guys leaving my gate open and my dog getting out and having to pay $85 to get her from animal control. She was missing for hours!!!! Now I have to say, they felt bad and tried looking for her and due to me not able to drive, gave me a ride to animal control to pick her up and even offered to pay half. So I thought ok, this is a mess but they are trying to make it right. Little did I know this was just the beginning. From making a mess, breaking a yard sign, the worker having long arguments with their significant other on the phone while working (awkward) they began their work promising to be done in two days. Well, first day looked promising although the guy told me that what I was told about covering the tile behind my toilet was not going to happen. I was bothered and when I said I cancelled my drywall guy, he offered to do it for me “on the side” while the toilet was out. He seemed to want to help and said he would take care of it. Against my better judgement I agreed. I also found out that first day that this guy had a family emergency and that he would have to finish the next day because he would be gone the rest of the week. Ok understandable. The second day, I get a text that some parts are not in. After no one coming by 1pm, I started to get concerned so I called the office and I asked what time the parts will be coming in. The woman stated that the parts probably wouldn’t be until later. I asked if the guy doesn’t get done, could they guarantee someone else to come out the next day to finish. She stated absolutely not, we cannot guarantee and she stated they do not guarantee it done by my surgery. I was not happy and made it known and she started arguing with me. So the guy texts that he will be there and it will be done. He gets here like 430-500pm doesn’t leave until 930pm. And didn’t finish the shower and did a terrible job on the drywall. Oh, the shower worked but there were no shelves, the floor pan had no texture and one of the shower heads was installed in the middle of the wall. Yes the middle!!! I was furious. It was not done and my bathroom looked horrible!! Of course, the project manager was nice and listened and kept promising to make it right. It took weeks and several no shows and me and my husband calling and calling (and the whole time I’m recovering from TOTAL HIP REPLACEMENT) until finally a different guy came out and finished the shower but he would not touch the drywall. So it took a month of dealing with them to get it done AND I had to hire another guy to correct the drywall. When we asked for a small discount to cover drywall correction expense and the fact they were not finished with install by promised date, we were told, “no. The shower worked, didn’t it?” Seriously?!! I wasn’t promised that the water would be coming out of the shower (in the middle of the wall) I was promised that they would be done before my surgery or at least installed correctly! So if you like being strung along, hearing false promises, no return phone calls, unprofessional behavior from staff to installers, leaving your house messier than when they came in, breaking your yard stuff, losing your dog, then these are the guys for you."

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.
