Gray anything in a home would be a reason not to buy it. Especially things like floors and cabinets. It’s depressing and cold.

Keep it traditional & you won’t go wrong !!

Who gives a bleep. The important thing is that what makes you happy. Besides, following trends isn’t trendy anymore.

Avoid grouted tile in a kitchen! Even if the grout is sealed, it will eventually soak up kitchen grease and will be a constant maintenance problem. I gave up and conceded that brown grout looks OK.

interesing video!

If gray painted walls are out, why have you been using it in your projects?

Trends come and go. Buy what you love. ❤️

I just did my new kitchen in off white with black hardware and black farmhouse sink and taps. I did quartz counter and backsplash and it looks fabulous. I can always change out the hardware and sink if I get tired of it. I live in the country and so it is perfect to me.

I feel like Sting of the Police is giving me home decorating advice.

Any color, style, material or product will be outdated in a couple of years. Live with your gray walls or white kitchen and don’t listen to all that crap. Any renovation to get rid of your outdated decor will also be outdated in three to five years.

White quartz is out. It is not a warm color. It is blinding white. Warm stone patterns are in. The longer you live with your choices, the more likely they will return in a new way in the future. Unless you are selling, it doesn’t matter what’s in because it will be out very soon.

So happy GREY is out. Hated it

All valuable comments. Don't rush your planning process.

"Builder beige" is still the safest color for the walls of a house you are selling. Open shelves collect airborne grease and dust, so you'll have to wash anything that you want to use. I've seen black and white bathrooms, too, and they're boring. One or more black bathroom walls make it feel like a cave.

Note: If a family member or guests utilize a wheelchair or walker, it is best to utilize commercial grade flooring for lvp or carpet. FYI

I redid my house a couple years ago and I did put in white kitchen cabinets with oil rubbed bronze hardware., Grayish countertops and white subway tile with light gray grout. I like it. People have commented that they like it also. Doesn’t matter, it’s my house :-) at first I thought I wanted a bright flashy tile, but I changed my mind and went with 3 x 12 sub tiles instead.

I have a visceral negative reaction to gray flooring. I always have. I redid the floors in my house back in 2022 and even finding flooring that was not gray at that point was very difficult. Luckily, I found some. I know many people that put gray flooring in their house and every single one of them have told me that they hate it now. Nothing screams flipper house than seeing a house listing with gray floors.

I have hickory kittchen cabinets with Shaker panels. I never plan to replece them. Above the cabinets are open and display my pottery. Is dust really an issue? Use a device that catches dust. I don't have an exhaust fan above my stove top in the island. It would have cost MORE than the stovetop and the oven. Paint is a whole lot cheaper than the exhausting unit. Never even had to do that after 25 years. Unless you're planning to sell your house in the near future, live with what YOU like.

I have to tell you, the color concrete gray looks like absolute crap! Also, those gray plank floors are horrific! It looks like your standing in some ones basement. Cool and ugly.

Designers make their money pushing the next "trend" and anything you put in is already out of style according to them. Few people have the time or money to keep up with the latest trend, changing it out every couple years. Who has tens of thousands to do so? I just finished my kitchen by myself, doing all the work, and went with white cabinets & black hardware and a pale accent color on the walls. My floors are hardwood and I refinished them with traditional medium oak color and gives the room warmth. It is classic and will never go out of style IMHO. Hardware is relatively easy to change, so ~$1000 and I can change it if/when I sell. I also find white, while it shows dirt easier, actually makes you keep it cleaner in the long run. You notice and clean it up immediately.

After watching the video I get some ideals how to give my kitchen cabinets a new look without costing an arm or leg 😝 Thanks and hope you have more subscribers

I bought a house that was flipped two years ago. It has greyish floors, grey walls, ugly poured concrete countertops, identical to a jail floor to the floor of a janitors closet, But it does have a horrible granite bathroom countertop the flipper put in. A barn door but it’s good because it’s to the laundry room and it’s a tight space so it acts like a pocket door. White cabinets with ugly brushed nickel pulls. I would love to have some open cabinets to let some light in. People don’t need a bunch of crap anyways. The guy also opened up the house so there was no wall between front room, kitchen and living-room then he framed out the place where a wall was with rustic stained lumber to give the opening a beam feel. That was great!. And lastly awful big grey tiles in the shower and floor. Yuck. Slowly getting rid of everything.

I get you think no backsplash looks cheap, but I currently don't have one and it causes no problem. Even behind the stove I hardly ever to never splash the wall. So why add that expense? Washable paint solves the problem.

You seem to have lots of experience and make valid points about how so many flips or rebuilds look alike. The grey flooring is a good example of this. Thanks for all the insight.

“Look cheap” is in the eye of the beholder. Real oak wood cabinets can be better than the pressboard modern look crap sold in the big box stores.

We have been shopping for a steel door with two sidelights to fit a standard rough in opening about 64” wide. The least expensive $1200, but more likely $1500 with minor upgrades. The most expensive is the outrageous quote of $33,850 ! We now expect to pay $4,500 to $7,000 for a good quality entry with the glass we like.

90% of this video on some dude's face is useless.

Thank you thank you. Now I like a white kitchen, but no black hardware or granite. I've walked out of too many barn doors gray floors and all gray walls. $$$ to change.

Quarter round looks awful to me

Small kitchens are a real challenge...

I love those backsplashes that match the countertop. For my upcoming remodel I've picked out marble that will be used for both. I've never liked subway tiles, they're just too ubiquitous and boring; there's nothing unique or interesting about them at all. They're super popular though, so obviously my opinion is in the minority. I'm remodeling for myself though, not to sell, so I'm going to put in what I like. To each their own!

When my mother remodeled her kitchen in the 90s, she had her new cabinets (honey oak cathedral and square-raised) custom-made by the cabinet maker friend of the family who'd worked on our previous houses. The good news is that all these years on, they're still in excellent condition. The bad news is that all these years on, they're still in excellent condition. 🙃 🙃

I thought you were Sting in that thumbnail.

"Millennial gray" needs to go away. Also barn doors.

Great advice! Dirty houses are less desirable than clean houses. To the point where some selling agents will do stuff like clean the windows and floors. People just don’t want to pay top dollar for something that’s going to take them multiple weekends to deep clean. Some cities give away free wood chips!

Bumped into this one. Really well done video. You did say "there is a tool" for centering holes at 2:14. Assuming you mean a jig of some kind, but links to stuff like this are a good idea. Keep it up!

Did they like the yellow door?

I agree about white kitchen cabinets. There are a lot of colors to put in there. I like unique spaces and a mix of textures and color combinations. Let the color wheel and the light be your friend

As a child in the 1950, our house had real oak flooring. I got a splinter in my foot while walking on it. A painful infection followed. I will never have real wood floors in my house.

Grey floors were terrible from the get go. It looks dead.

Avoid trends. Problem solved.

Rustic terracotta tiles are a winner

Grey wood does existing in real life, just because it doesn’t exist in America doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Grey ghost gum. Etc

Thanks for sharing. Where did you find the storage facility deal? On or off market?

I love the granite you showed in the video as the "upgraded" type (the countertops at 8:52 are stunning), and I really wanted granite in my new kitchen, but I couldn't find any that I liked locally so I went with marble. I also absolutely love brass, in particular satin or brushed brass (polished not so much, as I much prefer more matte finishes than shiny in general). I also much prefer a gold color over silver. I'm doing my entire kitchen with satin brass hardware and I think it's gorgeous. I'm remodeling my house for me, as I don't plan to sell any time soon or possibly ever, so I'm putting in things that I like.

Great video and totally agree with all 5 things not to do. Paint is definitely your friend 😊
