Remodeling a small apartment kitchen

Remodeling a small apartment kitchen This campus kitchen was a real eye sore. The owner of the house wanted a complete re-do of the space for as little money as possible. ( DON'T WE ALL?) I recommended using luan sheeting for the flooring instead of individual squares shown here in the picture. Also I suggested using decent grade cabinets to withstand the wear and tear of everyday living in a college setting.

Remodeling a small apartment kitchen Of course the fun part for us is the demolition of just about anything. Here we had the old metal cabinets which we neglected to take pictures of before we removed them to the street for pick-up. Anyway, we kept some of the plumbing parts that seemed to be in good enough shape to reuse on the new sink.
