The cabinets were install enough to take a counter measure (see enclosed picture)
The home owner chose Cambria counters in Ashford color. The cabinet isntallation continued the balance of the week with the electrician coming Friday Nov 20, to install the puck lights inside and under the cabinet for task and accent lighting.

Day by Day progress of a kitchen remodel
October 2009
This 1984 home needed a kitchen update. The laminate cabinets with oak wood pulls were out of style, the appliances needed replacing and the laminate counter tops had seen better days.
Solution to the problem: The Walline's of Dellwood, MN. worked with Val Stuessi, CKD of Crystal Kitchen Center. The existing kitchen layout was not that bad, Val tweaked a few areas to make the kitchen layout fit with their present life style (E.G: Added a buffet on the dining room side, removed the unused desk and added a second pantry, widen the isle space for two people to cook together in their new kitchen.) Appliances stayed in approximately the same location, a warming drawer was added. The existing soffits and recess can lights and oak wood floors are remaining
The contemporary look gave away to a more transitional look of antique white painted cabinetry on the perimeter and mushroom painted cabinets for the island. Cambria counter tops in Ashford color. Appliances are Jennair range, Subzero refrigerator, Asko dishwasher and Dacor warming drawer.
October 28, 2009
First day of tear out: Clients have removed all food and kitchen supplies, luck for them they have a full bar in the basement to be set up as their temporary kitchen.
The plumber removed the sink and dishwasher
the Electrician removed all electrical wiring needed to move the appliances out of the kitchen
The carpenter removed the appliances, counter tops and cabinets and was finished by 2:00pm
October 29, 2009
Electrical walk thru with CKC project manager and the Walline's. Placement of the lights, switches and outlets are discussed with the homeowner to have them in the most usable places.
