"When we viewed the damage to our kitchen floor, walls, and cabinets from leaky pipes under the sink, our hearts sank. How could we handle such a large project? Because we are in our late 80’s, we called our sons about the matter and one of them said he’d call Angie’s List because he had gotten good help from you folks himself. The name Eric Vanderlip showed up on the screen as a highly rated contractor and he lived close to us. A quick call brought him out the following day. He told us because of COVID, getting materials and workers to do the work would be difficult, but that he was willing to take on the job. So began the restoration of our kitchen. We noticed Eric going out of his way at every turn to make it as easy as possible for us. Often he brought samples for us to check out, so we wouldn’t need to shop and perhaps expose ourselves to the COVID virus. How good it is to see our kitchen back in place, looking even better than before. We recommend Eric Vanderlip highly to our friends and family. In fact, we have Eric returning this summer for another job. Thank you, Angie’s List for providing good workers for a much needed service."

"Dennis Harmon has some pretty amazing people that work for/with him. The outside of our home looks pretty amazing with the updated work they did on it...Thank you George and your partner for making the outside look beautiful. Hannah thank you for the wonderful paint job you did on painting the outside exactly how I wanted it. The remodel work in the Master Bathroom was done by Tally & Rick and they did the most amazing work! So precise and detailed.... my husband and I love what they did and are really impressed. We are looking forward to having our kitchen remodeled when the cabinets come in...so looking forward to working with Harmon & Harmon on all of our projects. We highly recommend Harmon & Harmon!!

"We were looking for someone to remodel our kitchen in Kent and honestly didn’t know where to start. A friend from work mentioned Fusion Builders and said to ask for Daniel. I gave him a call and he came by the next day to take a look. From the first meeting, Daniel was super professional and easy to talk to—he gave us ideas we hadn’t even considered, like opening up the wall to the dining area for more light. The whole process went smoothly; his crew showed up on time every day, kept the area clean, and finished earlier than we expected. Now our kitchen looks completely different—bright, modern, and way more functional. We’ve already had family over and everyone keeps asking who did it. We’re really glad we found Daniel through that recommendation, and we’ll definitely call him again for our bathroom next!"

"Joel did amazing job!! He was on time everyday and worked steadily until the project was done. I had my entire downstairs floor replaced! Joel decreased my stress considerably because of his knowledge and calming manner. This was the best experience I’ve had with home projects and I contribute that to Joel. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again for my next project."

FAQs for kitchen remodel projects in Yelm, WA

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.
