gimz63251073 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2010 My kitchen layout plan. 1. 1X Tall cabinet to pipes as well as store pails, brooms, mops, washing stuff and etc. 2. 2 X Large drawers for pots, pans, extra plates, extra glasses and bowls, etc 3. 1 X storage area to house the rice cooker, microwave (non-built in), kettle, etc. 4. 3 drawers for cutlery, commonly used spices, miscellaneous small kitchen items, etc. The rest are pretty standard. Not doing top cabinets. Colour of floor would be spraying grey with black freckles. Laminate for cabinets would be light grey Countertop to be stainless steel (probably will take matt look, have to see sample first) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gimz63251073 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2010 hey gimz, how much are you paying for your stainless steel counter top? hmm carpenter uncle didnt quote me seperately. His quote is as follows: Tall cabinet - $450 Storage area on top - $90 All cabinets with stainless steel top (with backsplash) - $1,525 Note that the stainless steel top is actually a piece of wood wrapped up in stainless steel. Uncle's says his quote is based on thicker and better stainless steel, though i wonder how thick is his thick...hmmm Soft closing hinges - $2 each. Soft closing drawer runners - $30+ for normal ones. Hope the helps... i didnt go around searching for carpenters, as too many things to deal with already. So i took the easy way out of taking friend's recommendations who had their kitchen done by him.

lilithfiend 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2010 oh i see..so its like a stainless steel laminate..hmm interesting. so the counter top is about 9 feet right? Which means your price PFR is about $169 for the cabinet + counter top. do post up pics when you have them! very curious to see how it turns out.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gimz63251073 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2010 it seems like wrapping over wood is the way they do it. i had visited 1 commercial kitchen equipment shop and asked 3 contractors. All told me is done this way. One contractor is my friend who is quite experienced in commercial kitchen equipment, but too bad his pricing is ex. i think its $1.3k for countertop with backsplash and built in sink for 8ft. u mean there are other ways of doing the stainless steel countertop? hmmm....

Just keep holding the 20%, consider as a punishment to the painter Very good idea, match-ing concept with the wall texture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
