"Needed my kitchen remodeled. Completely gutted my kitchen. Installed new cabinets, sink, appliances and flooring. Carl and his crew were efficient, professional and did high quality work. One thing that was very important to me was making sure during the remodel that dust and mess was limited. His crew was excellent in this area. Left my home clean every day they worked. Highly recommend this company !!!!!!!!!"

"Gary and his team are professional, kind, and experienced! This is the second time we have hired the Davinci team for a major remodel-the first being a three season conversion to a first floor, full handicapped accessible bath and laundry. Their attention to detail, ease of communication & dedication are absolutely top notch. Moreover-the people who make up Gary’s company are so genuine and talented. Truly enjoyed having their energy and presence in our home. They even were able to begin our project early, and finished in a really reasonable timeline. Gary is our first call for future renovations from here on out. Thank you Gary, Bill, Josh, Jon, and John! -Mary Ellen & Sheila"

"Jason, Jude, and their team did an exceptional job on my kitchen remodel. When my circa-1951 cabinets started literally falling apart, I knew it was time for an overhaul and immediately knew I wanted to hire MQC because I had seen their work recently as my sister had hired them to remodel her kitchen last summer. Jason and Jude came to my house to measure the space and come up with a new layout and when we met up again a couple weeks later I was thrilled with the design. The whole kitchen was stripped down to the studs and every challenge that a 75 year old kitchen presented was handled with professionalism and quality solutions with both safety and aesthetics in mind. I was able to choose exactly the finishes I wanted and the project came in pretty much right on budget (aside from some unforeseen electrical issues). Every subcontractor was friendly and courteous. 8 weeks later I had a brand new, absolutely gorgeous kitchen that I am super proud to show off! Highly recommend!"

"Storm damaged 2 very large trees threatening the house. Dan and his crew professonally removed the trees even though multiple large and heavy branches were overhanging the roof. He knew exactly what to do , what equipment was require and how to do the work safely and efficiently. The cost was very reasonable and the yard was spottless when he was finished. I would happily hire him again. "

FAQs for kitchen remodel projects in Rochester, NY

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.
