Is your kitchen in need of a Renovision?

How we go about our work...

Our job is to listen to your needs, generate ideas to solve problems and help you weigh the pros and cons of each major decision. We do that with any budget range and that is just one way we are set apart from others in this field.

 

 
 Cathy's Reno Tips  
 
I enjoy doing this segment of my E-Newsletter since I do come across several situations worthy of mentioning. I am a firm believer in the 6 P's......Proper Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance. Perhaps some of my solutions may help your projects go smoother.
 
"A Glassy Alternative" 
 
Imagine an exciting alternative to ceramic tile.....
Vitrium Glass tiles are durable, color fast, scratch resistent and simple to install. These tiles are textured from behind the tile, not on the surface, making them more durable and easy to maintain.
 
Come visit Renovisions Showroom to see the beautiful array of colors of Vitrium

Dryer Duct Design
 
 
 The shorter the duct run, the better the dryer will perform.  Clothes will dry faster, and you'll use less energy. Use 4"diameter duct, and don't reduce it to anything smaller. For flexible lines, use laminated aluminum duct. The typical maximum allowable duct run for dryers is 25 ft; anything longer than that requires a booster fan.

Add An Island 

To "Beef-Up" The Kitchen 


 Ask most homeowners and they'll tell you that there's just not enough counterspace in their kitchen & islands are a popular solution! According to the National Kitchen & Bath Association, over  50 percent of kitchens created include islands.
 
Eight Steps to a Safe
Kitchen...........
 Safety is priority number one when it comes to designing your new kitchen. More building codes cover the kitchen than any other room in the house. That's because so many accidents occur there.
The National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA) suggests the following steps when designing for safety:
 
  1.  Use proper lighting.
  2.  Use slip-resistant flooring. 
  3.  Keep a fire extinguisher handy. 
  4.  Keep electrical switches, plugs and lighting fixtures away from water sources and wet hands. Building codes require that every electrical receptacle be grounded and protected with ground-fault circuit interrupters, which shut off the room's electric current if there is a power surge or if moisture is present. 
  5. Consider appliance lock-out options. Many of today's appliances, particularly ranges, ovens and dishwashers, allow you to "lock out" little hands so no one can use them when you're not in the room.
  6. Install faucets with anti-scald devices that prevent water temperature from rising to dangerous levels, or buy pressure-balanced valves that equalize hot and cold water.
  7. Find a safe cooktop. Avoid being scalded by steam from boiling pot by staggering burners on your cooktop.
  8. Use the space safely. Think about how traffic will flow through the kitchen and make sure no one will interfere with your space when cooking. Locate microwaves 24" to 48" above the floor to avoid reaching to retrieve food. Slide-out trays and bins in base cabinets make storage items more accessible so you don't have to bend. And lastly, avoid sharp corners on the ends of countertops, especially islands and peninsulas, by having them rounded.

 

To dramatically open the area, the design skills of Renovisions, created a uniquely shaped custom radius island. The piece showcases stunning two-tier contrasting-quartz countertops, which warm up the room.
 
 
Function & Flair....
 
A recent kitchen "Renovision"  as seen in the latest issue of Signature Kitchens & Baths Magazine
 

 Other functional features include deep drawers, a recessed Fisher & Paykel dish drawer, prep sink, pullout trash bin, custom wine rack, and cabinetry to store bar supplies. The Victorian-style cherry cabinets with beaded details blend impeccably with the homeowner's antique furniture. Furthering the airy aesthetic, dazzling glass mullion doors along the entire length of the kitchen sink wall reflect the beautiful collectibles the homeowner now proudly displays. After a long day's work, the client now can come home to relax and feel like the king of his newly built castle!
