Jan Worstell lived in her home for ten years and had never liked the countertops or flooring since day one. She wanted a complete refresh throughout the whole house, bringing her dream vision to life by creating a coastal feel in every room.
Good news spread to Jan about Thomas Kitchen and Bath from her neighbors at Del Webb, and she headed to our showroom to meet with designer Amy Garcia. “Amy was just wonderful!” Jan exclaimed.
The first thing Jan did was pick out the cabinetry she loved. She knew she wanted a beautiful range hood, which she quickly zeroed in on, but the rest was left up to Amy. After seeing the initial design renderings, Jan immediately fell in love with everything Amy presented. Jan mentioned how one specific item would be the inspiration for a room, and then everything else would fall into place. For example, a piece of artwork would inspire the bathroom, tile in the guest bathroom, or cabinet color in the kitchen.
Along with the new Coastal-inspired finishes, the kitchen layout was reworked to be more functional. “Amy thought of things I would never have thought of,” Jan said. For example, in the kitchen, she transformed an awkward angle into a more practical design and found a new location for the pantry to make room for a handy beverage statin near the dining area. She also recommended lowering a raised bar to create visual flow into the open floor plan, perfect for entertaining.
Soon after presenting the design ideas, Thomas Kitchen and Bath began the remodel, tackling all four rooms back-to-back: kitchen, primary bathroom, guest bathroom, and laundry room. “I was only doing [a renovation] once, so we did everything at the same time!” Jan commented.
All four rooms were gutted and rebuilt from floor to ceiling. Even pushing through supply chain issues, Thomas Kitchen and Bath still stayed within our estimated timeline for finishing each room. Jan noted how easy to work with and how professional our contractors were.
A few of her favorite new additions included the kitchen’s beverage station and cabinet colors, the fun pattern Amy chose for the guest bath, and the vessel sink in the bathroom. She gave one final comment about our team, “I highly recommend them to anyone who needs their kitchen or bath remodeled. You will be very happy with the results.”
