Love the white monochromatic kitchen.Tile backsplash is nice with the sheen agaist the matte cabinets. A sink on the island was an excellent choice too! Great job!
Cabinets that go to the ceiling, BRILLIANT. Also, it's a great way to find out if your walls and ceiling are square and plumb. Big sink and not a double-sink or split sink; BRILLIANT. If you can't get a turkey roasting pan in the sink, then you have the wrong sink and configuration. For a rental unit, this is a homerun in so many ways.
They were not square and plumb haha we had to make many adjustments for the uneven ceiling like lower some cabinets cause they were hitting the ceiling but now you can’t tell
@@danrockwell1883 They make sense maybe because I've done some similar work and run into identical problems. There's a really bad one I dropped on your Twitter account the other day. I hope you enjoy it. It helps if some of your friends are really tall!
It all goes together so well, the floors and the tall cabinets, I like the clean lines and how you didn’t trim out above the cabinets. Simpler but goes better with the space and the sink belongs where it is, hate they made the kitchen worker so isolated in design before. This look just makes the flow of conversation so much easier and Electrolux is the best they invented so much and are such a iconic brand. So high end. Looks like you spent way more than that. I built my cabinets from a box and I paid more so high five on that price! I’ll have to check them out next time I need cabinets!
Thanks James! Means a lot coming from you. I’m really fortunate to have found Nelson’s from my buddy Ray. They did mess up a few orders but it was worth it for the price!
@@danrockwell1883 as long as they come through, I ended up waiting over a month on a miss ordered cabinet. Not ideal from my guys... sickk place hope you get to do another someday 🙏🏻
Thanks so much for the dope video...I'm in the early stage of renovating kitchen. You did a great job of showing before and after without all the fluff.
Great advice and it turned out beautiful. I’m actually in the process of renovating my kitchen right now too and ended up here because I’m looking for advice and ideas.
I'm so glad I found this video! I live in Chandler and hope to use some of the same resources you did. My husband and I are avid DIYers (he worked apartment maintenance for several years and knows quite a bit) but feel somewhat out of our depth with a kitchen reno. The guy who lived here before us did a pretty obvious DIY job and it looks pretty janky (some crooked drawers, cabinet boxes not level with the ones next to them, etc.). We were highly considering paying the thousands we were quoted by the pros, but your video gives us hope that we *can* reno the kitchen on a budget. Thanks!
Great job A couple of things I would have done differently would be to put a range hood above the stove and on the backsplash to use a gray-tone material for you to highlight 👏
Yeah I like the backsplash but I don't love it, I should have chose a different one. For the range, I'm still planning on putting in a low profile range under the cabinets but being my kitchen and well house is so small, storage is a key propionate so I don't regret that even though I do think it would look aesthetically better.
Thankyou for introducing this cabinate company this will help bring more valve to the starter homes i will be investing in rather than reusing the old nasty ones the house homes with.
Great video! I’m in love with your kitchen, you did an awesome job!! And, the backsplash, I thought about using the subway title, too! But, looking at your design, I think I might choose a different style, but keep the glossy look! Your backsplash is amazing!!! Plus, you saved a lot on your remodeling and thanks so much on showing how you save on your materials! Hope to see more of your videos!! Thanks again!! 😊
Great choices! We did something similar and the one thing you didn't mention is the value in the drawers on the lower cabinets. The best design choice to be made even though they are slightly higher in price they are worth every penny in actual usable space.
Hell yeah, great location! just be aware that the cabinets come disassembled so you have to build them and they sometimes mess up the orders so have some leeway time in there incase that happens. They get them to you but it did delay us just a bit.
Love your kitchen. Really love the blacksplash. My kitchen is about the same size as yours and my budget is small. Thanks for the great tips. How tall are the ceilings in your kitchen?
Why the dog just staring at the camera man? Haha!!! Im going to do this is my kitchen!!! Love it! But i would have gone with the subway tile. Thats just my preference. Amazing job!
Design, demo (design first maybe you can save some original pieces), plumbing, electrical, order cabinets, flooring, countertops, backsplash, buy appliances. I may have missed something but that’s the rough idea
Great video Dan! How are the cabinets holding up? Decent quality? I’m interested in ordering some cabinets from them but weary about ordering without being able to see them first. Got a sample door but hard to tell from just that. Any regrets?
Great job! So you designed the kitchen with ikea and ordered from a different company. Can you just submit the design you did with ikea and ask the other company to give you a quote based on the design and measurements? And is this the same quality as ikea or better? I am trying to do the same as you with my house because I want to rent it after but I do need to update the kitchen and we just got a 20,000$ quote from a local company and there is NO WAY I spend that money on a kitchen for a house that I will rent out later ... thank you for all the info and again great job!
Yes you can for sure do that. I would hire specific people for the job and do what you can yourself. Dont get a general contractor to do the whole thing. Hire a good cabinet guy, find the cheapest counter top guy, cheapest tile guy and just get 3+ bids for everything!
You just helped me out. Your design works for homes in my area (Michigan) all I would have to do is knock down one way and replace with the island which opens living room and kitchen.
@@danrockwell1883 I heard that 12 is tight,15 should be minimum for comfort. It’s very stressful planning these things because we wanna get it right, but a good challenge. We wanna maximize the space available as well as functionality. Thanks.
Love the video, very helpful and informative. I’m trying to renovate my kitchen now, and the quotes I’m getting to do quartz like this on my 45sqft counters is 3,500 plus! Where did you find your slab and fabricator?
Had to run it under the foundation. I was around 1500. But it’s against code to run gas where I live under foundation so that’s why I chose the sink there. Wanted to keep the gas but you can do electric stove on island
like all Cancers (in the horoscope) it must be beautiful, functional, and with as little money as possible. since I am Cancer myself, I like it. good job brother.
Well the whole house flooring was 4000 installed, so that little sections was maybe 300 and recessed lights were like 20 each for the 3 but wiring and switches on top so maybe $40 each and I helped my contractor buddy install them.
@raycruz.jr (insta) helped me out a lot but I think he's too busy for projects now unfortunately. For flooring and trim these guys helped me a lot, I trust them 60278937226, tell them I sent you
That looks great for under 15k... This is almost exactly what I'm looking for minus lighting, floors, and appliances and I'm getting quotes of 25k plus
Excellent job but couldn't you have used the old cabinets and added trims n painted white to lift up the looks and rearrange the position? Curious. You could have saved a lot of money 💰. The old ones looked good too, I think. Just a thought.
Dishwasher looks good however does it clean the dishes. I would never advise anyone to buy a used dishwasher unless they have used it b4 buying. I don’t know anyone that would allow that.
You missed the mark. There's no vent hood under stove. I personally hate greasy odor during & after cooking. I know any renovation is very expensive. I completely get it. Gotta cut the cost. But in total the renovation looks good. 👍😊

Great looking kitchen. Love the layout.
Great choices! We did something similar and the one thing you didn't mention is the value in the drawers on the lower cabinets. The best design choice to be made even though they are slightly higher in price they are worth every penny in actual usable space.
That is true! Love the drawers, a little bit more for a massive value!
Thank you for the cost breakdown 😊
Job well done.🤗 I love your new Kitcken!❤️
Amazing! Looks great , this stove in Australia is $6K !!Each quartz slab is around $3K !
Wow so expensive!
Love your kitchen is so nice and amazing finishing . Would you be doing more videos of how u remodel everything.
Yes I will be! Glad you liked it 🙏🏼

Love your kitchen. Really love the blacksplash. My kitchen is about the same size as yours and my budget is small. Thanks for the great tips. How tall are the ceilings in your kitchen?
Thanks so much! My ceiling I believe is 8ft or 96inches
Pretty dope design dude loves it!
What a great layout. Whoever is moving in this house is a dream come true. Awesome and what kind of pup do you have he's awesome too.
Thank you! Living here for another 6 months, may sell or rent out
Nice work dude!
Thanks man!
Yeah! Contractor friends! Hotstuff!
Great video! thanks for the insight and resources. Where did you get your black sink?
Why the dog just staring at the camera man? Haha!!! Im going to do this is my kitchen!!! Love it! But i would have gone with the subway tile. Thats just my preference. Amazing job!
Thank you and don't remind me of the small regret haha don't mind the tile but I wish I would have gone with a subway tile.
Love it! Definitely going to use your advice for my fixer-upper i just got 🙌. Do you have advice on what order to do everything?
Design, demo (design first maybe you can save some original pieces), plumbing, electrical, order cabinets, flooring, countertops, backsplash, buy appliances. I may have missed something but that’s the rough idea
Where the heck is the hook for the stove top? (Haven't finished video, first impression)
Dan the man! awesome!
Thank you Lex!
This is fantastic! Good on you mate.
Thanks a lot!
great choice for backsplash > Beautiful

No regrets man. Can’t beat the quality for the price. Holding up good
I never knew about that IKEA function. That’s pretty sweet!
Wow….amazing kitchen ❤
Great job buddy!
Thank you!
Great job. I also live in Phoenix, did you have to get a kitchen remodel Permit? and if so do you need a contractor for that? Thank you!
I didn't but make sure you don't have code enforcement sniffing around the area

You just helped me out. Your design works for homes in my area (Michigan) all I would have to do is knock down one way and replace with the island which opens living room and kitchen.
Great video. I’m thinking of doing something similar at my home. Is the dishwasher on the island?
Yes it is, so you have to run drainage and water to the island which you have anyway if you have a sink on it
@@danrockwell1883 how deep is the island.you need at least 15 inches clearance for your knees when you sit .amirite? Thanks!

Your new kitchen looks great! What is the name of the backsplash and where did you get it!

Aracruz International Granite here in Phoenix
@@danrockwell1883 Thanks so much!
Hi Dan, how did you know exactly where the new water line should come out if you didn't have the island already in place?
Had to run it under the foundation. I was around 1500. But it’s against code to run gas where I live under foundation so that’s why I chose the sink there. Wanted to keep the gas but you can do electric stove on island
Looks great. Can you please provide info on the backsplash?
Sorry I don't remember the design but I do remember that I seen it somewhere horizontal and I decided to make it vertical
@@danrockwell1883 Thank you.
Great job!! Love it
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow awesome job! Love it!❤️
Thank you!!
Beautiful job. Which color did you use on the cabinets
👆⬆️👆
Hi I live it! I have a galley kitchen and this was exactly want I want to do- question are thE cabinets wood?
Love it! Great design!!
Where the cabinets fully assembled? or where they delivered flat packed like IKEA cabinets that must be assembled on site?
We had to put the cabinets together. My friend did it in like 2 hours for all but he's done it several times
like all Cancers (in the horoscope) it must be beautiful, functional, and with as little money as possible. since I am Cancer myself, I like it. good job brother.
Didn’t know that was a trait of cancers, really cool. I can be very frugal haha
Amazing kitchen
Glad you like it
Looks amazing
Thank you
Where did you get floor and recessed lights for 700?? 😱
Well the whole house flooring was 4000 installed, so that little sections was maybe 300 and recessed lights were like 20 each for the 3 but wiring and switches on top so maybe $40 each and I helped my contractor buddy install them.
Thanks for this video!

nice job. where is the backsplash from?
Floor and decor
@@danrockwell1883 Is it tiled? Thanks
How is it so cheap in Arizona? My tiny condo was quoted 40-80K for the exact same style and no island
I was quoted high too but you can’t hire a general contractor. You have to be your own GC and high your own subs and buy your own materials
Great job
Looks amazing buddy. We have the same coffee maker too haha.
Coffee maker gets the job done for a good price 😎
Thanks
Of course!
Excellent job but couldn't you have used the old cabinets and added trims n painted white to lift up the looks and rearrange the position? Curious. You could have saved a lot of money 💰. The old ones looked good too, I think. Just a thought.
Thank you! I don’t think I could have salvaged them and made it look this clean but yeah you definitely want to keep them if at all possible!
What is the size of that island? looks super nice.
Thank you! Off the top of my head it’s 9ft long with an 11 inch overhang
You did an amazing job💕
Nice video do u have your design sketch from the site for your island
what is the name of the backsplash and where did you buy it?
Dang it I'm not sure but I bought it at floor and decor
This is goals 😍
I love it !

Dishwasher looks good however does it clean the dishes. I would never advise anyone to buy a used dishwasher unless they have used it b4 buying. I don’t know anyone that would allow that.
Great point! Only thing I had to buy but I bought another used dishwasher and it works great. This one didn’t, but I sold it for $100
WOW goals!!!!
What tricep exercises do you do
I rarely train them because they over power my shoulders but skull crushers and one arm overhead tricep extensions are my favorites for them

What are the dimensions of your Island?
How is the quality of your cabinets?

What was the final cost...
That’s really good for a full kitchen upgrade and it can a whole lot cheaper if you would have did more things urself
What kind of flooring and how much?
I've got a video dedicated to my flooring but it's fresh oak life proof from Home Depot
You did well
