Carolyn and I headed out to investigate doing the kitchen remodel ourselves. Lucky for us, one of our first stops was at Superior Cabinets in Tukwila. We met Steve and discussed with him our kitchen remodel desires. Steve listened intently to what we liked in the current kitchen and what we didn't like. I had made a drawing of the current kitchen layout with measurements and Steve said from that and our discussions, he would draw up 2 plans - one for the kitchen as is with a few amenities and another with major upgrades. He said he would fax us the drawings in a few days. We left with a good feeling and restored confidence this project would get off the ground.
Around the corner from Superior Cabinets is an iFloor.com store. We stopped in to take a look at the flooring options and picked up a few free samples. One of the catches to the kitchen remodel is the need to replace the worn and tired vinyl floor. I have always wanted the hardwood entry and kitchen to flow together - removing the carpet 'bridge' that gets the heaviest traffic in the house. We met with Dante and he gave us good advice on the flooring options and there was no pressure to buy. We had two options rolling and we ended the day of rollercoaster emotions on a higher note.
