Moving the sink or range means moving supply, drain and vent. A drain needs its fall, so relocating a sink across the room is a floor-system question, not a cosmetic one.
Freeze-thaw cycling is the governing condition. Water that gets into masonry, grout or a roof detail expands when it freezes and widens the gap it entered through.
Ventilation gets skipped and should not. A sealed modern kitchen with a high-CFM hood and no make-up air can backdraft a water heater or fireplace.
What the job includes
- Layout and work-triangle planning
- Cabinet refacing or replacement
- Countertop templating and install
- Plumbing and electrical relocation
- Range hood and make-up air
- Flooring, tile and backsplash
