A Chef-Inspired Kitchen Remodel

For some homeowners, cooking is a means to an end. They cook to feed themselves and their families. For others, however, cooking is a passion, a way of life. It’s not a want or even a need, but a necessity. For these people, life would not be the same without cooking. These are the people who need all the bells and whistles in their kitchen. At Progressive Builders, our clients often ask us for gourmet kitchen remodeling ideas, so we’ve come up with a few of the must-haves in a chef-inspired kitchen.

1. Splurge on a six-burner stove. A gourmet home chef multi-tasks while cooking. In fact, at any given moment, they might be cooking their appetizers, main dish, side dishes and desserts. Thus, a six-burner stove will fulfill the needs of someone who likes—or needs—to cook their whole meal at once. The designers at Progressive Builders can assist homeowners in choosing a stove that best works for their preferences.
2. Create countertop space. For someone who cooks big—big meals, with many courses, for lots of people—countertop space is an absolute must-have. Having room to prep, chop and store food is important when creating signature dishes. Progressive Builders knows how to work extra countertop space into existing kitchen remodeling ideas. We can either repurpose existing space or create room for an island or small add-on. With the right design, anything is possible.
3. Install island(s). Kitchen islands are versatile and add a sense of convenience to the chef’s kitchen. Homeowners can install a regular, run-of-the-mill island, which will add extra countertop space, or they can opt for a luxury island, designed specifically with the homeowner’s kitchen remodeling ideas in mind. Building the sink, stove top, dishwasher, wine fridge or just extra cabinet space into the island makes it useful and Plus, one side of the island can be reserved for seating, allowing guests to sit and chat with the chef while he or she prepares dinner.

At Progressive Builders, our designers have ample experience designing kitchens of all shapes and sizes. From gourmet chef’s kitchens to budget-friendly renovations, we have the experience necessary to bring all homeowners’ kitchen remodeling ideas to life.
