A kitchen remodel in Ancaster, ON
The finished remodel includes custom cabinets that I made. The frameless cabinets were made from paint grade maple plywood and should last forever. Doors from maple plywood stained dark brown or left natural. All drawers use full extension sliders.
Countertop is poured Biomix 8000 High Resistance concrete with colour added to the top layer. A frame was built and wire reinforcements suspended at the bottom third level. A foam cutout was placed where the sink is. My wife and I then spent a day mixing, pouring and levelling the concrete. When cured, the concrete was sealed.
The 1960's style bulkheads were removed and the stove was moved a couple of feet to the right, making the entire layout much more usable. The vent is a 700 cfm unit that sounds a bit like a jet engine, but boy does it suck.
Overall the reno worked out very well. I'll definitely use concrete again in the future.
