A backsplash is a key element in any kitchen, providing both functionality and aesthetic appeal. Choosing a solid slab backsplash can elevate your kitchen to new heights of elegance and ease. Unlike traditional tile backsplashes, solid slab backsplashes offer a smooth, continuous surface without grout lines. This not only makes cleaning simpler but also creates a more modern and luxurious look.
When planning a kitchen or bath remodel, choosing the right cabinet style is a critical decision. The cabinets set the tone for the room and impact both functionality and aesthetics. Two popular styles to consider are overlay and inset cabinets. Understanding their differences and advantages can help you make the best choice for your home.
Trends may come and go, but there is one area in the home that often sees the most transformation: the kitchen. From glossy and streamlined in the 1930s to the iconic candy-colored kitchens from the 1950s, kitchen palettes have changed drastically over the years. If you’re old enough to remember the 1970s, knotty pine paneling and linoleum floors come to mind. If you were a child of the ‘90s, you might recall an open floor plan with shabby chic decor. With the millennium came the rise of reality television, particularly with home design shows. Due to the popularity of these shows, homeowners took a real interest in trends and design elements. Vintage charm took center stage over the last decade as well as stainless steel, low-profile appliances, and light and bright neutrals. As we look ahead in kitchen design we’re starting to see designers and homeowners return to warm wood tones rather than the crisp look of whites and creams. Are warm wood tones making a comeback? It’s trending in that direction.

The kitchen is the heart of the home, and its layout plays a crucial role in optimizing functionality, aesthetics, and overall efficiency. Whether you’re designing a new kitchen or renovating an existing one, finding the perfect floor plan is essential. In this guide, we’ll explore Kitchen Layouts 101 to help you make informed decisions and create a space that not only meets your needs but also enhances your cooking and dining experience.
While sprawling kitchens are a top priority for homeowners looking to remodel, sometimes a large footprint just isn’t possible. And bigger doesn’t necessarily always mean better. Sometimes a small kitchen can get the job done beautifully. Often clients come to us with a kitchen remodel idea for their small space, and our experts at J&J Construction design with the intent of making their kitchen appear larger and more open, while maximizing every square foot of space. Sometimes it takes an outside perspective to determine the best layout for your family, depending on your space constraints and needs. There are many strategies you can implement in order to achieve the look of a larger kitchen including tall cabinets, smart color selections, and storage and organization solutions.
Kitchen renovations are the most sought after home projects. Not only is a kitchen the heart of any home, but the return on investment is fantastic. No matter what kitchen trends come and go, one style will remain constant: white cabinets. White cabinets are not only timeless and classic, but they serve as a neutral palette. Homeowners gravitate toward white kitchen cabinets because they instantly brighten up the space and make it feel airy and clean. If you’re one of the many families with white kitchen cabinets, or are thinking of remodeling to include them, consider how you’ll incorporate them into your overall kitchen aesthetic.
There is nothing more exciting than a beautiful kitchen renovation. Homeowners spend the majority of their time in this room, and they know that an updated kitchen has a high return on investment. When clients come to us with ideas for their dream kitchen, they often share photos of a favorite paint color, trendy cabinet color and style, or an island that wows. While those ideas are great to have, thinking about function is even more important than design style and color choices. This is one of the reasons hiring a professional for a large-scale project like this is so important.
