It was an honor to be chosen to design, demo and install a new kitchen and fireplace surround for this project. We removed walls, extended the kitchen area, created an island space and took the top cabinets to the ceiling. Hard to believe that the after/before pictures are of the same home. Add in Cambria countertops/ full height backsplash, undercabinet lighting and plenty of accessories to complete the new look. Adding the new fireplace surround was just the icing on the cake!

This will be part 4 of a 4-part series. Wall panels: What a challenge! We were asked to build wall panel surrounds throughout the house with a 2 ½” reveal on the sides, the only caveat: mitered corners - around posts, inset, over ceilings and down stairwell walls. Everything had to line up perfectly for this look to work. Nailed it! Beauty and elegance on full display. Still the same Happy DBA Customer in Edwardsville IL!

This will be part 3 of a 4-part Series. Vanities: In the master bath we continued the current theme that was throughout the main area. A floating vanity with an elegant look of all drawers. The remaining bathrooms had their own unique style and colors. Cambria vanity tops have a perfect accent for these rooms. Still the same Happy DBA Customer in Edwardsville IL!

This will be part 2 of a 4 part series. Continuing with the current theme, today’s post includes the wet bar and basement bar areas. The combination of rift white oak and painted cabinets, along with Cambria countertops is simply stunning. Still the same Happy DBA Customer in Edwardsville IL!

This will be part 1 of a 4 part series. One of the largest single projects we have ever designed and built, and we are so honored to be trusted to make the homeowners’ cabinet dreams come true. It all starts with the kitchen and dry bar. Rift white oak surround cabinets go to 10’ high with painted cabinets designed inside. The vent hood goes to 12’ high. The varying colors and style are simply stunning! Cambria quartz countertops and backsplash with undercabinet lighting truly compliment the look. In this design, every detail mattered and we were up to the challenge! A big thank you to Kevin Thoele for taking these jaw dropping photos! Another happy DBA Customer in Edwardsville IL!

Helping customers find more room in a tight kitchen design is one of the more satisfying projects to work on. For this week’s project, we demoed the existing kitchen, removed the soffit, ran new undercabinet and in cabinet lighting and installed our newly built kitchen cabinets to the ceiling. The lighted glass display cabinets add a touch of class to this beautiful new kitchen. Cambria Quartz Brittanicca Gold Warm countertops and backsplash complete the project.

“Fits like a glove”! An old saying from way back that truly captures today’s post. This is what we love to do – take a space and design cabinets that fit perfectly for width, depth and height, even on a vaulted ceiling. Add to the fact that it perfectly reflects the ambiance of the surrounding area and our job is complete! Another Happy DBA

So, let's say you have already invested in new countertops and backsplash, but still want a new kitchen look. No problem. We were asked to build all new shaker doors and drawer fronts, add new hardware and soft close hinges, and respray the existing cabinet boxes to freshen everything up. Mission accomplished. It truly enhanced the beauty of the existing countertops and backsplash! Another Happy DBA Customer in Breese IL! Call us for all of your woodworking needs.
