Even if you are not much of a chef, a home kitchen remodeling can still give you a beautiful kitchen that quickly becomes the center of your Bakersfield, CA area home. After all, kitchens these days are not dark, gloomy places restricted to activities connected to the preparation of food. Modern kitchens are doubling as family rooms, where children do their homework, and indulge in other family friendly activities, like art work and games that the entire family can enjoy. It is also turning into an entertainment center where your friends can gather to catch up on your lives over a mug of coffee.
Kitchen islands are becoming the most requested kitchen remodel features in American homes. If your existing kitchen plan does not include a built- in kitchen island, it absolutely must be included in your kitchen home improvement plans. A smaller kitchen can benefit from the extra counter space that can also double as an informal dining area. A small kitchen can also be made to look more spacious by tearing down a wall, and installing the kitchen island as a point of demarcation between the kitchen and the other areas. Generally, kitchen islands are constructed in color co ordination with the rest of the kitchen, although a completely unrelated color or style can work to create a bold look. Sizes can be rectangular, square, circular or oval, and you can even have rolling islands for areas where there is no space for a large island.
With the staggering range of kitchen sinks and faucets, counter top and cabinet materials, sizes and shapes of kitchen islands, all available at various price ranges, you'll find it easy to have a cheap kitchen remodel that gives you a great looking kitchen within your budget. If you have the luxury of a hefty budget, you can install custom fittings, cabinets and counter tops to give you a custom kitchen that's one of a kind. For instance, if you would like to completely tear down your old laminate covered kitchen and replace with an old fashion farm house look, a country kitchen remodel will give you a beautiful farm house style kitchen that's practical too.
I would like to convert a 2 car garage into a living room. This would include removing the garage door and adding a window and siding. Also, we would like to add a shower to the existing 1/2 bathroom. (we would need to extend the bathroom into the garage area by 4 feet to make room for the stand up shower)

I am interested in adding on to my home while in the middle of our rebuilding. My current home is 1632 sf. What I would like to do is add on to my kitchen and master bed room, both are in the back of the the home but on both levels (the home is a two story). Approx add on is 342 sf or a 9w x 23l. Can you please give me an estimated cost for labor, materials and if this includes plumbing and electrical. Thanking you in advance for your cooperation.
