Before
After
The original kitchen was a closed-off L-shaped layout with a small island, dated speckled countertops, limited storage, and only a cased opening to the living room. A load-bearing wall separated the kitchen from the rest of the main floor, making the space feel cramped and isolated. The existing plumbing and electrical systems were original to the 1990s home and needed complete replacement.
We removed the load-bearing wall and installed a structural LVL beam to open the kitchen to the dining area. The layout was completely redesigned around a 9-foot island with seating for four, a dedicated prep zone, and a cleanup zone with an undermount sink. Custom maple shaker cabinets with soft-close hardware were installed floor to ceiling, maximizing storage. All plumbing and electrical were brought to code, including dedicated circuits for new appliances.
The finished kitchen features 40% more counter space, double the cabinet storage, and a seamless open floor plan that connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas. The homeowners report that the kitchen is now the center of their daily life and hosting — exactly the transformation they envisioned.

A full kitchen gut in a Boise home with a vaulted ceiling and a distinctive arched window — walls opened for wiring and finish work, tile floor demoed to the subfloor, and a modern greige shaker kitchen built in with a calacatta quartz waterfall island, a Bosch stainless gas range, and a black undermount sink on the island.

Eagle
Iron Crest replaced the kitchen island in an Eagle home with a new 8-foot by 52-inch storage island: black shaker cabinetry with a bank of drawers and a built-in microwave drawer on the working side, shallow 12-inch cabinets on the back, a matte black quartz countertop with a 12-inch overhang, and a re-centered row of three pendant lights. The rest of the kitchen stayed in place.
