Chicago kitchen remodeling

Take the wall out

Take the kitchen wall out to recover light, sightlines and circulation after confirming its load and supporting the new opening correctly.

Walls, beams and layout on one of our Chicago jobs

What decides it

The first question is what runs through the wall and what rests on it. Framing direction, utilities and support below determine whether the opening is simple or needs a larger structural plan.

Why this is worth doing properly

The wrong layout makes new finishes expensive camouflage. We draw the aisles, appliance swings, plumbing routes and structural changes first, while every inch can still be corrected without reordering a cabinet.

What you get from us

  • 01

    Solve the layout before ordering

    Aisles, appliance doors, the distance from sink to range and clearance behind the stools are drawn to scale first. Correcting the layout after cabinets arrive is no longer a design change.

  • 02

    Specify appliances before cabinets

    Every appliance comes with exact opening, ventilation and clearance requirements. Reading them before the cabinet order prevents permanent gaps, blocked doors and improvised fillers.

  • 03

    One crew throughout

    The same crew carries the job from demolition through final trim. Separately licensed plumbing, electrical and gas contractors work within the same coordinated schedule.

  • 04

    Nothing hidden without approval

    If demolition reveals structural load, a blocked drain route or old wiring, you receive photographs and a written price before the condition is covered.
