Wakefield, the Bronx
Kitchen remodeling in the Bronx
Kitchen remodeling across the Bronx. With a basement below, the layout is usually a real question.
Waste is the constraint in every kitchen, and in this borough the answer is more often yes than it is anywhere else in the city.
What a basement underneath makes possible
In a two family house with a basement, waste has somewhere to run and a sink can usually move properly rather than a few inches. A layout change that a co op board would refuse outright is frequently buildable here, and it is worth asking about before settling for the kitchen you already have.
Wondering whether the sink can move at all?
Call to talk through your kitchenCabinetry
Older houses here are rarely square. Where a run meets a bowed wall we scribe a filler to the actual wall so the gap does not taper, which is the detail that separates a fitted kitchen from a placed one.
The days without a kitchen
Longer than people expect and mostly at the end, because a stone worktop cannot be templated until the cabinets are set. We tell you where the gap falls so you can plan around it.

Whether services move, the cabinetry, the worktop, and appliances that bring their own power and ventilation requirements.
Questions people ask
Can I move the sink?
More often than in an apartment, because a basement below usually gives the waste somewhere to go. It is the first thing we check at the visit.
Can you keep the existing cabinets?
Where the carcasses are sound it is a real saving, and doors and worktops can be changed on their own. What decides it is whether a run will survive being disturbed.
