Whether you are looking to install a few up grades to your existing kitchen or a complete kitchen remodeling, kitchen home improvement should take into consideration the size of your existing kitchen, your needs, and the size of the family as well as the age of the house. A large family with children needs a spacious kitchen with enough space for a large built-in kitchen island with seating. A built in kitchen island can offer you more counter space in a limited area. An older house may not be able to take additional enhancements, although you can still upgrade the kitchen to fit in with your needs. Old fashioned country kitchens are always in style, so if you're looking for a kitchen makeover that lends warmth to your Oakland, CA area home, go in for a custom kitchen remodel that will give you a farm house style kitchen within your budget.
The kitchen island is quickly finding a space as a must have in a modern kitchen. In a small kitchen, an island can give you that much needed extra space, and can double as a casual dining area for the family. A large kitchen can have its spacious expanse broken down by installing a kitchen island in the middle. Built- in kitchen islands with seating can quickly turn into conversation areas when friends drop over. Designs can range from rectangular, oval and square granite topped islands, and rolling island designs that can be installed when your kitchen doesn't allow for a large island. Your built-in kitchen island can be finished with pilasters, and can be fitted with appliances to make cooking a pleasure. Choose from traditionally French country, contemporary and other styles to blend your island with the rest of your décor. While your island can be matched with the rest of your kitchen, using contrasting materials and textures can give the space a dramatic look.
Simply by installing a new cabinet or counter tops, bringing in an island, opening up a few windows and adding coordinated appliances, you can give your kitchen an entirely new look. A kitchen remodel is one of the highest ROI investments you can make in your home with most people recouping more than 90 % of the cost of renovation in resale value. Since the kitchen is such a visible part of your Oakland, CA area home, investing in its appearance and functionality offers greater value for money than other home improvements.
I had a leak in my shower and had the shower vavle replaced but now I need to replace all the tile and wall board. Since I am replacing the wall and tile, I would like to replace it with tile and stone or something new that is not just plain white.

I'm looking for someone who can give me an estimate for garage remodeling/renovation--including doing work on the walls, roof, and doors.
