Scope of Work
What We
Deliver
Investment
$45,000 – $120,000+
Timeline
6–10 Weeks
Custom Cabinetry
Inset or full-overlay cabinets built to specification in our New Jersey workshop. We don't import box-store cabinets — every door, drawer, and frame is crafted to your exact dimensions and finish.
Stone & Quartz Countertops
We own our own slab yard and fabricate countertops in-house. Template to installation in under 10 days — not the 6-to-8-week lead times you'll find elsewhere. Marble, quartzite, quartz, and granite.
Layout Redesign
We move walls, relocate plumbing stacks, and reconfigure floor plans to maximise function, light, and flow. All structural and plumbing changes are permitted and engineered.
Appliance Integration
Column refrigerators, professional ranges, and built-in coffee systems with flush-mount panels, concealed ventilation, and dedicated circuits — installed by our licensed electricians.
Lighting Design
Layered lighting plans: ambient, task, and accent. LED recessed, under-cabinet strips, and pendant fixtures — designed, supplied, and wired by our in-house electricians.
Backsplash & Tile Work
Handmade Zellige, subway, natural stone, and large-format porcelain — hand-set by our trade-certified tile installers. Herringbone, stacked, and custom pattern layouts.
Recent Work
Kitchen Remodel Projects
Princeton Walnut and Zellige Kitchen
Forty years of outdated material removed from a Princeton colonial and replaced with hand-selected walnut cabinetry, travertine slab counters, a handmade Zellige backsplash, and a new skylight that tripled the natural light. Seven weeks on the clock.
Pennington Open-Plan Kitchen
Structural walls removed, a nine-foot limestone island added, and a Pennington family home transformed from compartmentalised to continuous. Light oak cabinetry, honed limestone counters throughout, and a 48-inch professional range where a doorway used to be. Two days ahead of schedule.
Cranbury Farmhouse Kitchen
The load-bearing wall between this Cranbury kitchen and its dining room came down first. What followed: painted white shaker cabinetry to ceiling height, a white oak island, a 30-inch fireclay farmhouse sink, and five-inch white oak floors throughout. Bright, considered, and built to last.
Skillman Craftsman Kitchen
A 1990s galley with tile countertops and no real character. Eight weeks later, a Skillman craftsman kitchen anchored by a reclaimed Pennsylvania barn beam, honed travertine slab counters, a six-burner professional range, and hand-thrown ceramic pendants. The galley is gone.
Princeton Colonial Kitchen Renovation
This Princeton colonial had not seen a renovation since 1994. We removed the load-bearing wall, opened the plan entirely, installed a ten-foot Calacatta Gold quartzite island with seating for five, and outfitted the kitchen with Wolf, SubZero, and Miele. Two days ahead of schedule.
