Centralia Remodel
While remodeling the bathrooms and kitchen on this project the client realized the fireplace
needed to be addressed as well, which turned out to be a huge focal point.

AFTER: Bookshelves removed, light fixture added on top of fluted accent tile. Main wall 12x24 tile, new fireplace insert, and custom wood hearth.
AFTER: Custom floating wood hearth returns to the wall on the side.
AFTER: Coordinating colored schluter used on outside corner of tile.
AFTER: View of new fireplace from entry.
The kitchen was the clients least favorite room and the update made it the favorite place to be in the house.
BEFORE: Dated granite counterops, old white stovetop, and existing color of painted cabinets.
AFTER: Countertops, Pental quartz Ijen Azul, new stovetop, sinks and faucets. New fresh paint color on existing cabinets. Plus full wall of tile in place of dated small backsplash.
BEFORE: Old white appliances, paneled refrigerator, and outdated appliance garage under microwave.
AFTER: Island in accented paint color, Benjamin Moore Whale Gray. Reworked refridgerator wall to add more counter space and appliances changed out to new without paneling.
BEFORE: Most disliked part of the old kitchen, rope trim detail, plate rack over sink, and dated 4" granite backsplash.
AFTER: New custom wood floating shelves over sink, simplified farmhouse sink, black stainless faucet and cabinet hardware.
AFTER: Open area from removed appliance garage.
AFTER: Another shot of the Pental Quartz Ijen Azul counterop.

The master bath started the inspiration for this remodel.
A goal of the client was to bring the outdoors in using materials and fixtures that have an organic feel.
BEFORE: Old tile tub deck with sunk in jacuzzi tub.
AFTER: This free standing tub takes the place of the dated tub deck, and has a more open and airy feel.
BEFORE: This wall has storage cabinet not visible here, vanity and seldom used lower make-up vanity.
AFTER: New furniture styled cabinetry with natural wood finish, quartz countertops and backsplash, new central light fixture and sconce. Another way to bring in the outdoors was to add a window and bench where old make-up vanity was.
BEFORE: Old 12x12 ceramic dated tile was throughout the bathroom.
AFTER: New 12x24 porcelin tile with random rock pattern. This tile turned out amazing and really brought the outdoors in as the client desired.
BEFORE: 2nd vanity with old tile countertop and dated cabinets, mirror and light fixture.
AFTER: 2nd vanity with new quartz, rectangle sink, faucet, mirror and light fixture for a more streamlined look.
BEFORE: Walk-in shower between vanity and tub deck.
