Although their old kitchen was ok, it lacked warmth and good styling. These homeowners wanted a kitchen that expressed their personal tastes. Wood Wise was called in to help design and make the changes. KraftMaid cherry cabinets and granite countertops give a fresh look to this light-filled space. The slate tile backsplash and stainless steel hood over the gas cooktop add warmth.     

Making a choice on what kind of hood to grace the cooktop is an important decision when remodeling a kitchen. Our designer, Kathy Walker, helps our homeowners choose from the many options. From traditional ones that are made like the cabinets to contemporary stainless steel designs, the range hood can add a great style statement to the finished room.  Here are some examples from Wood Wise kitchens:  

Enjoying the beautiful view was the goal for these homeowners when they turned to Wood Wise for help with a screen porch and deck. With a great design and careful attention to detail the homeowners got that and more. The vaulted ceiling, skylight, stone floor and fireplace all add up to the perfect place to relax.                          

This tired kitchen had an inefficient work space and poor lighting along with just being unattractive. The homeowners wanted more light, better food prep areas, and space for family and friends to gather. Wood Wise designed and built this updated kitchen that features new cabinets, granite countertops, and a long island with plenty of space for everyone.

Side entrances to homes can become a drop-off point for all the stuff of life: shoes, coats, sports equipment, etc. Providing an attractive and orderly side entryway was the goal of Wood Wise for these two homes. With plenty of cabinets and easy access for all family members, staying organized is made beautiful.  

One big benefit of remodeling? Entertaining becomes more enjoyable. Having a well-designed space becomes a reflection of a person’s life. As guests and family gather together, the kitchen often becomes the center of activity. Some homeowners are opting for a beverage bar for their guests’ easy access. Here are some beautiful examples from Wood Wise projects:
