This kitchen is in a group home for troubled teens in Fair Oaks, CA. This house has 10 bedrooms, so imagine how mealtimes are in this kitchen!

There was a significant leak under the sink that caused major dry rot. Since the floor needed to be repaired underneath the island anyway, we decided to rip out the entire island and install one that would work for people who live there.

Because of the high traffic, it was also decided to cover up the wood floors with a laminate floor that could withstand multiple people walking on it throughout the day.

The granite 4' x12' slab was custom made to match the current cabinetry that was already there, including additional storage underneath. Also included were new counter tops on both sides of the stove.

The staff and kids gave the entire space a fresh coat of paint, which included new decor as well.

Since the installation of this giant island, the prep, meals, and even parties are so much easier to navigate because there is so much more space to move around.
