I love what you did here, nice job! And I like what you said about not just following trends. That’s so true. They change quickly so its best to do what you’re comfortable living with everyday. We’re planning our home to be built and have so much to consider. Your videos have been helpful to us thanks 😊

This guy is absolutely great -- so articulate and what I call "thinking about the right things" rather than thinking about the wrong things. "Don't try to turn a house into something it's not" such great advice!

About to completely gut our tiny kitchen and learned so much about space utilization! You make great points and often it’s not a lack of space, but a lack of flow both with the walking path and visually.

You hit a cord right off the bat. Popcorn ceilings. I have them in my home and hate them, they are impossible to clean. However I live in a mobile home so replacement is not an option. How easy is it to "scrape" that off? Many DIY videos show wetting it, but in a mobile the dry wall is extremely thin and don't think that's an option. Thanks.
@RemodelWithRobert Жыл бұрын
I do not recommend trying to remove popcorn ceilings without wetting them. It needs to be done slowly and gradually so the texture can absorb the moisture and then it will peel right off. If done properly, you shouldnt affect the drywall board much at all.

So what do you use to prevent splatter when cooking? Is there a popup vent/splatter guard?

A superintendent that I worked with told me to put glass or high quality plexiglass especially behind the stove. I personally prefer NO grouting so I am getting a solid material for countertops and backsplash. If I do something custom over my stove I will be putting up glass or plexiglass on that part of the backsplash. Just a thought. People may not like it especially if they have a big kitchen. I have a 16x9 galley kitchen so the glass will not stand out since I will cover all of that backsplash on that wall.

Thanks! This video was very helpful to me. I have pulled my kitchen cabinets from my very small kitchen and will be able to use your tips to help me expand the space without reinventing the wheel. The small changes will make a huge impact in my home!

I would love if you talked about size of upper cabinets. Most common here is 12” and 15” is what I am looking to install which is custom or semi custom in my area. If there pros and cons if your experience for the different size? Also, for easy cleaning maintenance, dust and dirt, what kind of floor boards and crown is good for that issue? Also what is the lifespan a 1/2” vs 3/4” cabinet boxes. Is it worth the extra costs? I’m disabled so doing deep cleaning is something I have to hire someone. Also, what kind of fan would you recommend? I have a 1100sq ft house and my kitchen is small but is not an open floor plan. My kitchen is apx 16x9 and has no way to open up the kitchen unless I was going to do extra building to shift the load wall. That was something I didn’t have the money to do. Thank you for your time. New sub.👍

Very informative video. Thank you! 😀 2-Part question- 1) There was a vent in the soffit above the cabinets over the cooktop so there must have been ductwork in that soffit. What did you do when you eliminated it along with the cabinets? 2) I have a soffit above my microwave with the venting function in it, over the range. The soffit continues to the end of the wall where it vents to the exterior. Can I eliminate the soffit? How would I vent to the exterior then? 🤷🏻♀️ Thank you for your help! 🙏🏻

where is the hood?
@RemodelWithRobert3 жыл бұрын
Good question and something I should have discussed in the video. I do not currently have a hood installed. Although it's not a problem for me with my cooking and cleaning habits, it should generally go right above the stove top. I generally create ventilation when cooking, with a fan and two open screened doors but if I chose to add a vent again it would go back in the ceiling.

So how is cleaning off the dust from the items on the shelves? If you don’t use something for a while, you will have to wash it before you use it.
@RemodelWithRobert3 жыл бұрын
I am a pretty meticulous person about cleaning and I dont have a lot on the shelves so it generally is kept clean, but yes you are right that the shelves are more susceptible to dust than cabinets.

Nice job on your kitchen. A bit too wordy but good explanation. Filming the kitchen without having yourself in there was cool but when you DO put yourself in the video,,, cut with the flying hands, if you can??? Extremely distracting. So many people do that, so I'm not judging. Just offering a suggestion.
