Delightful New Kitchen

Our team has been working on this kitchen renovation since late winter and we’re thrilled it’s completed! We created a more spacious feel by adding a sliding door (better access to the backyard) and knocked down a wall to create a more open and expansive space.  The colors and design elements came together nicely. What do you think?

Expansive Second-Floor Home Addition

Our team at McDonald Contracting took this one-story home from good to great! By adding on an entirely new floor, we were able to give the homeowners more space for family time as well as more bedrooms for privacy. Prior to the renovation, this was a 2-bedroom and 1 bath home shared by 4 people and 2 adorable dogs.  Each of the kids now has their own room and the parents now of a spacious new master bedroom, bathroom and walk-in closet.  The laundry is now on the second floor, making for easier laundry days!

Gorgeous Kitchen Addition

This kitchen is what design dreams are made of! From the huge island, that comfortably accommodates 6 people, to the huge windows that look out onto a pond to the added wet bar this kitchen is divine in every sense of the way.

This project started with a gut remodel and an addition on the homeowners first floor; adding an additional 600 sq feet, a new kitchen, new deck and a finished basement.  We designed the kitchen to complement it’s beautiful outdoor surroundings, using large windows in every corner and keeping it open and bright. In the entryway room, we added an array of cubbies to create a useful and beautiful space for the family.

We caught up the homeowner, Kate, and here is what she had to say about working with our team –

“Ed and James were great to work with! We also had a great experience with Brian and Kenny from McDonald Electric. They are very responsive. We lived in the house during the construction and everyone managed! Ed worked with us to minimize any additional costs and stuck to his budget. We LOVE our new kitchen, deck, mudroom! They transformed our house into what we hope will serve our family for many years to come. There were several times that something was installed incorrectly and after we communicated that to Ed and his team, they fixed it. We are happy with the final product!” – Kate
