How long does it take to design a kitchen?

30, 40, 50, sometimes 60 hours of work is necessary to plan a kitchen. A lot of people watch HGTV and think it takes half an hour to plan and a week to produce.

And what about the actual remodel?

Our typical kitchen remodel is four to six weeks. We usually get them done between four and five, but it’s always better to build in extra time. I won't tell you three weeks and have it takes four or five. So we’re conservative in our estimates.

What about a bathroom?

If someone says, “Oh, we can build your bathroom in one day,” it’s simply not true. You can’t even get a permit or inspection in one day. Usually it takes seven to 10 business days for a bathroom. If it’s a tile job, it’s probably going to be a little more.

How messy is this going to get?

Site protection is very important to us. Protecting your property is a top priority. We have several different materials we use to cover different floor types—a carpeting protection material, a hardwood floor protection material, a tile and linoleum protection material that’s permanent for the duration of the job. It’s not something you put down and lift up every day. After that, we put up runners and plastic, and we hang zipper doors in front if we have to get in or out. We also do our best to maintain and control dust in the property. We’re very conscious of that.

What about securing my home?We have a lock box system on all the doors, so I usually get a couple sets of keys—I keep one and on

We have a lock box system on all the doors, so I usually get a couple sets of keys—I keep one and one goes in the box. I have agreements with all my tradesmen that if somebody loses a key, they re-key everything. It just adds that extra level of protection. And the box is there, so the house is always accessible.

David Cook: From Restaurants to Remodeling

By James Florence, Diamond Certified Resource

VALLEJO — Despite having an innate predilection for building, David Cook spent the bulk of his early career working in the restaurant business. Eventually, however, he decided to take a chance and pursue his professional passion. “I’ve always loved working with my hands and building things…let’s just say I had the best treehouse on the block when I was a kid,” he laughs. “Later, I ended up in the restaurant business, where I got stuck f...
