My past experiences with contractors has been horrid, but I've learned, and thought I'd ask here. So....
Any recommendations for contractor for a kitchen remodel? It's a small job, but a complete redo (I don't think any plumbing will have to be moved). Naturally, I want people who would only do things to code, with permits.

Packard Cabinetry at the corner of 5th Av. and Church St.
Actually, some drywall and ceiling/lighting work will have to be done as well (the electric is there, so nothing much electrical - just running existing wires), in addition to a small banquette and linoleum. Could Packard to that too?
I do hate walking into one of those places if they can't do it all; I'm thinking one-stop shopping.

Susan, you should call and ask Packard. I would surmise that they have sub-contractors for drywall areas, electrical who are licensed electricians to comply with the law. There are always electrical issues, new lighting, additional outlets and so forth in a new kitchen or remodel. Surely they can recommend linoleum. (Usher's carpet and flooring on Rt. 25 in Hvl. is highly recommended by moi.)
By the way, linoleum is a product mixed from linseed oil, limestone, and other natural ingredients. It was commonly used beginning in the 19 the century and was largely replaced by vinyl flooring in the mid 20th century.
You can still buy linoleum, but it is rather expensive ($7-10 sq. ft. ).
You no doubt mean vinyl flooring, either sheet, tile, or the lovely new luxury vinyl flooring.
Probably. I had a fiberglass backed, loose-lay vinyl once, and it was very thick and easy on my back. I suspect real lino would be to harsh for me.
I have to say that I'm considering having a pro paint the existing cabinets, so recommendations for someone who would do so would also be appreciated. (I once tried to repaint kitchen cabinets....it wasn't pretty.) :0
Well thank you. But I'm just taking a serious look at one, after backing out of some others. I'm just trying to get a handle on the total initial cost. I'm sure some will think it's premature. But I look at as many variables as possible before coming to such a big decision.
And this, despite recommending elsewhere that renting now is a better idea than buying, since I think a crash is coming again. But when you think you've found it, well....it should be done.
And clearly, I change my mind as I gather more information (ie: complete redo to painting cabinets). lol
