Kitchen Remodel in Lancaster, Ohio
Down to the Studs and Rebuilt With New Cabinets, a Farmhouse Sink & Quartz Countertops
The homeowners wanted a brand-new kitchen without moving a single wall. The kitchen was already stripped to the studs, so we kept the layout and put in new cabinets, a farmhouse sink, quartz countertops, and a tile backsplash.

Same Layout, Brand-New Kitchen
This Lancaster, Ohio homeowner had already taken the kitchen down to the studs. Old cabinets, old counters, old backsplash, all gone. What they needed was someone to put a real kitchen back in.
The layout stayed right where it was. Keeping the sink, range, and fridge in their original spots kept the plumbing and electrical simple, and it kept the money on the things you see and use every day: the cabinets, counters, sink, and tile.
Rebuilding From the Studs
With the kitchen down to bare framing, the first job was closing it back up right. New drywall went on the walls and ceiling, the seams were taped and finished, and recessed lights went in overhead.
Water supply lines and wiring were set where the new sink and outlets would land, and the subfloor was patched along the old cabinet run so the new base cabinets had solid footing.
New Cabinets & a Custom Range Hood
White shaker cabinets went in with black bar pulls, including tall pantry cabinets on both sides of the fridge for real storage.
Over the range, a custom wood hood with a white shiplap surround gives the kitchen a focal point and ties the warm wood tone to the white cabinets.
Farmhouse Sink & Quartz Countertops
The quartz countertops went on the same footprint as the old counters. A deep white farmhouse sink was set into the run, with a black pull-down faucet over it.
Because a farmhouse sink shows its front panel, the sink cabinet and the sink were planned together so the fit is clean.
Subway Tile Backsplash
A white subway tile backsplash runs from the quartz up to the upper cabinets, wraps the window and the outlets, and stops clean under the range hood.
Gray grout gives the tile some definition against the white cabinets and countertops.

Why Keeping the Layout Saves Money
Moving a sink or a range means opening up floors and walls for new plumbing, gas, or wiring. Keep the layout and your budget goes into the parts of the kitchen you actually see and use: the cabinets, counters, sink, and tile.
If your current layout works and it’s the cabinets, counters, and finishes that feel tired, a remodel like this gets you a completely new kitchen without the cost of relocating everything.

Kitchen Remodel FAQs
It depends on the size of the kitchen, the cabinets you pick, the countertop material, and how much work the walls and floors need. Keeping the original layout, like on this job, holds down plumbing and electrical work. The only way to get a real number is a walk-through of your kitchen. Estimates are free.
No. This kitchen kept the same layout and ended up completely different: new cabinets, a farmhouse sink, quartz countertops, and a tile backsplash. If the layout works for you, rebuilding around it is usually the smarter spend.
Yes. The homeowner on this project had already taken the kitchen down to bare framing. We picked it up from there and put the kitchen back together, from the walls and ceiling to the finished backsplash.
Usually not without changes. A farmhouse sink has an exposed front panel, so the sink base cabinet has to be sized or cut to fit it. We plan the sink and the cabinet together so the fit is right before anything gets installed.
White subway tile with gray grout, set from the quartz countertop up to the upper cabinets and around the window and outlets. Subway tile is a good fit for a white shaker kitchen because it stays clean-looking and easy to wipe down.
It depends on the scope and on lead times for cabinets and countertops, which can run a few weeks. We’ll give you a realistic schedule at the estimate so you know what to plan around.
