"The cabinets and countertops are beautiful and match sample materials perfectly. Dave Warren and whole team were great. Dave did a great job helping me with the cabinet design, making sure measurements were accurate, and creatively dealing with some existing kitchen layout challenges. I highly recommend him and Kitchen Concepts!"

"Matt had done a great job on my kitchen remodel last year, so when I had an unexpected plumbing failure and major flooding on my lower level that included the master bedroom, office, and the only full bath I called Matt right away. He was at the door before the flood mitigation crew was done clearing out my belongings, and was able to fit the key components of this job into his schedule, working evenings and weekends to get my house livable as soon as possible. While the basement took nearly a week to dry with industrial fans, etc. Matt and I met to choose materials and make decisions on changes I wanted to make. The bottom 10" of all the drywall had been cut away, all hardwood flooring and the bathroom vinyl flooring torn up. I took this opportunity to make some changes such as moving the vanity further away from the toilet, changing from a long double-sink to a smaller single vanity, and closing in an extra door so I had more wall space. As with my kitchen remodel, Matt offered advice on materials, and finishes, but let me take the lead in how I wanted my project to look. He always finds the right balance between sharing his experience and advice without being bossy or taking over my decisions. He was great on working with the specific requirements of my insurance company, and kept me well within the budget of my insurance payout even with the changes and considerable upgrades (tile floor, tub surround, moving the plumbing, etc) The sealing and repair work on the foundation was outside of the scope of the insured damage but was discovered when the walls where cut out. Even with that extra work, my total cost was minimal because the covered repairs had stayed well under budget. In the bedrooms the extensive drywall repair -- replacing the bottom 10 inches that had been removed, the removal of the old wainscoting, and the filling in a door -- are all completely invisible. Matt's team who worked on roughing in, and on the plaster and some finishing work were reliable, courteous, and did all they could to minimize the disruption on this weeks-long project. Every single day Matt showed up -- sometimes doing work and sometimes just checking in on his team. But he was on site every day. I especially like that he treats his team respectfully and mentors them. I have more projects in mind for my house and will definitely call on Matt again. I've given his name to several friends. Note: The hardwood floors were replaced by a different contractor who had done the floors originally, but Matt did do the tile floor in the bathroom. <br />"

"Eric, Art, &amp; team have been an absolute pleasure to work with. They did an entire kitchen remodel for us that included removing a wall and we are so happy with the result. If we would have known how great they were to work with, we would have tackled this project years sooner. Our go to guys for any future projects!"

"Val really listened to my request and gave me options that worked within my budget limit. Also, both Val and Moses responded to any concerns with immediate attention. My kitchen remodel was executed in a timely manner and I am very happy with the result. I can tell that they take pride in their work and it shows in the end result. I would have no problem working with them again."

"This is the second project that we have hired JAW Construction for and we are very happy with how our remodel turned out. As this was a major kitchen, dining and living room remodel, which meant we were not going to be able to be in those rooms during the construction, John and I worked on the timeline to ensure it went as smoothly as possible. Before the project started, Mark from Amcraft Cabinets came out and measured and talked with us to determine how best to use the space. We came up with several cool options including a pull out spice rack and a lift for my mixer. Once the project began, John, Brian, the electricians Clint, Christian and Tyler and the plumber Mike were always on time, friendly, always available for questions and cleaned up after themselves. John estimated that the project would take six weeks and it ended up taking five weeks! While it was not fun to be without a kitchen, we are so happy with how it turned out, it made it all worth it. Everyone that has seen our remodeled areas or pictures of them are very impressed. I highly recommend hiring JAW Construction and we are already planning our next project with John."

"We're selling a beautiful home in a historic neighborhood, and our real estate agent suggested we make some repairs and improvements to increase the sale value. I solicited bids from 5 contractors, and Amadou from Lo's Contracting stood out as the right choice from our first meeting. He was friendly and punctual, and worked with us to understand our goals (return on investment during a home sale) and put together a detailed and organized scope of work. The job included a light kitchen remodel (painted cabinets, granite counter top, new fixtures and appliances), light bathroom remodel, interior paint and touch up, exterior siding repairs and touch up, and about a million other little details. His prices were competitive against scrappier, disorganized contractors, and the work started the same week we signed. His crew did a great job, the communication was solid, and he resolved the one problem we had (a bulge in a new marmoleum floor) quickly and without question. I truly can't recommend Amadou and Lo's contracting enough."

"First of all let me say…Job well done! We absolutely love the finished product. Kristi’s ability to perfectly capture our vision was delightful. Dillon and David really brought the vision to life. My wife and I cannot say enough good things IYH. Every member of the team has just been so super responsive and timely every step of this process. Specifically, we have had remodels where the contractors and subcontractors would only respond to me and leave my wife out of the loop or be unresponsive. Not at all IYH's approach. This was literally the best remodel experience we have ever had. We will absolutely work with them again."

FAQs for kitchen remodel projects in Portland, OR

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.
