The Vision: Modernizing the Heart of the Home

This project centered on a homeowner looking to transform a dated, inefficient layout into a high-performance living space. At Restoration Elite, we approached this update through our "Single Resource" lens, ensuring that every design choice prioritized both immediate beauty and long-term durability.

Phase 1: Strategic Planning and Demolition

Unlike a standard remodel, our elite process begins with a deep-dive inspection of the existing infrastructure.

  • Infrastructure Audit: Before any new finishes were selected, we verified the integrity of the plumbing and electrical lines to ensure the home could support modern, high-efficiency appliances.
  • Controlled Demolition: Our team utilized industrial dust-containment systems to protect the rest of the home, removing old cabinetry and fixtures without compromising the surrounding living areas.

Phase 2: The Kitchen Transformation

We reimagined the kitchen as a social hub that balances aesthetics with rugged functionality.

  1. Custom Cabinetry: We installed soft-close, furniture-grade cabinetry that maximized vertical storage and cleared counter clutter.
  2. Premium Surfaces: The installation of heat-resistant quartz countertops provided a timeless look that requires minimal maintenance for the homeowner.
  3. Task Lighting: A layered lighting plan was implemented, featuring under-cabinet LEDs and statement pendant lights to create a warm, approachable atmosphere.

Phase 3: The Spa-Inspired Bath Update

The bathroom was redesigned to serve as a private retreat, focusing on precision tiling and high-end fixture integration.

  • Custom Glass & Tile: We replaced a standard tub unit with a walk-in shower featuring custom floor-to-ceiling tiling and a frameless glass enclosure.
  • High-Performance Fixtures: Brushed nickel rainfall showerheads and dual-flush toilets were installed to provide a luxury experience while reducing water consumption.
  • Precision Finishing: Every joint was sealed with high-grade, mold-resistant silicone to ensure the new space remains pristine for years to come.

Final Result: Increased Value and Daily Comfort

By centralizing the project management within our ecosystem, the homeowner avoided the typical delays of juggling separate trades. The result was a seamless transition from a "Project" to a "Home." The property saw an immediate 15% increase in estimated market value, proving that quality upgrades handled with elite attention to detail are the best investment a homeowner can make.
