The Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

Posted in Sams-Arthur: Kitchen/Family Room Remodel by mooshupork on September 15, 2009

Well, it was our last week with our contractor and crew!  The floors received their final finish and coat, and the painters came back to touch up a few areas.  The glass was installed in the cabinet doors and our lighting fixtures are mounted and working.  Our architect and contractor, Jeff and John, met us in the kitchen to give us back our keys and our house.  They actually had a ribbon across the kitchen entry!  We love the finished product, and just wanted to also give credit to Tobin Weaver, architect, who worked with Jeff on the original design.  We love the repeating wide doorways, and the attention to period details.

The cabinets turned out gorgeous as well.  We are very happy that we opted to get the soft close feature for the kitchen drawers.  The access to the backyard is much easier, and we have enjoyed our outdoor fireplace, which we can also see from our new den.  We have spent more time out there in the past week, than we did all summer!  Of course, there are the updates that we can’t see, like the new electrical and plumbing.  It is nice have to have an up-to-code electrical panel – it feels a little safer than the old panel that kept shorting out.

We had an amazing renovation experience, due to the vision, organization and communication of Urban Design Build.  We even finished on the scheduled day!  We still have a small punch list, but those are already scheduled to be addressed.  Thank you  Jeff, John, Tobin, the UDBC crew and subcontractors for making this project such a positive experience for family!

    I love how you have finished your kitchen. The design is very classic and well done. Where did you find your cabinetry? Thanks!

    OMG I love your kitchen. I want to do the same thing. I have a smaller galley kitchen and I want the same tile, countertop, refrigerator, cabinet latches everything like yours! The only different I’m going to do is use marmoleum and it’s going to be RED.
