Kitchen Remodeling in Tumwater

Looking for a kitchen remodeling contractor in Tumwater? Greg Myers Construction is based in Rainier, about 16 miles away, and Tumwater is part of Greg's regular service area. He handles kitchen remodels, new islands, cabinets, tile and opened-up layouts.

Out here on the South Sound prairies a lot of the work is on acreage — barns, shops, barndominiums and new homes on open ground, where the gravelly soil drains well but the wind comes across with nothing to stop it. That is why the order of the work, and who is running it, matter as much as the cabinets you pick.

One customer called Greg “a man of integrity.” Another wrote that he “does excellent work.”

What's included

Kitchen Remodeling we do in Tumwater

  • 01

    Layout and wall changes

    Opening a closed kitchen to the living area, moving a doorway, or taking out a wall with a properly sized beam so the new layout works.

  • 02

    Islands and seating

    A new island sized for prep space and stools, with outlets and pendant lights planned in, like the island in Greg's lodge-style kitchen.

  • 03

    Cabinets and countertops

    Cabinets set level and square even on an old, uneven floor, with countertops, sink and hardware fitted to match.

  • 04

    Tile backsplash and flooring

    Backsplash tile, plus kitchen floors that stand up to traffic and spills, including slate and other natural tile.

  • 05

    Plumbing, electrical and lighting

    Relocating the sink, adding a dishwasher, new appliance circuits, and under-cabinet, recessed and pendant lighting.

  • 06

    Range hood venting and appliances

    A range hood ducted to the outside, which matters in a damp climate, and every appliance set and connected before we leave.

Kitchen Remodeling around Tumwater

Greg works all over Tumwater — near Pioneer Park, Olympic Flight Museum and Mount Molly and out by Trosper Lake — and throughout Thurston County.

Tumwater sits at Tumwater Falls on the Deschutes River, just south of Olympia along I-5. Tumwater is about 16 miles northwest of our base in Rainier, well inside our 100-mile service area.

Western Washington buildings fight water more than anything — months of rain, moss on the roof, rot wherever wood stays wet, and soils that hold moisture. A building lasts when it sits on a proper foundation with drainage around it, is wrapped and flashed right, and is built to dry out.

How it works

How your Tumwater kitchen remodel job works

  1. 1

    Free on-site estimate

    Greg looks at the kitchen, how you cook and how the room connects to the rest of the house, then gives you a free estimate.

  2. 2

    Design and selections

    We settle the layout, cabinet plan, counters, tile and lighting, and order the slow-to-arrive items before demolition starts.

  3. 3

    Demo and rough-in

    The old kitchen comes out, then framing changes, plumbing, wiring and venting go in and get inspected while the walls are open.

  4. 4

    Install, finish and walkthrough

    Cabinets, counters, tile, floors, trim and appliances go in, then we clean up and go over every detail with you.

Questions

Kitchen Remodeling in Tumwater: FAQs

Do you do kitchen remodeling in Tumwater, WA?

Yes. Tumwater is about 16 miles northwest of our base in Rainier, well inside our 100-mile service area. Greg handles kitchen remodels, new islands, cabinets, tile and opened-up layouts there, and the estimate is free.

Do I need a permit for kitchen remodeling in Tumwater?

It depends on the project. When one is needed, Greg pulls the permit from the City of Tumwater's building department and builds to whatever the permit and inspection require.

How long will we be without a kitchen?

That depends on the scope, and Greg gives you a timeline with the estimate. Ordering cabinets, counters and fixtures before demolition keeps the gap as short as possible. Many households set up a microwave, coffee maker and fridge in another room for the middle stretch.

Does a kitchen in Western Washington need anything special?

Ventilation is the big one. With the house closed up through long wet winters, cooking moisture has nowhere to go unless the range hood vents outdoors, and it ends up as mildew on window frames and inside cabinets. We also check for old leaks under the sink and dishwasher, which are common in older homes and easy to fix once the cabinets are out.

Can you remove a wall to open up the kitchen?

Usually, yes. A load-bearing wall gets a beam sized for the span with posts carried down to solid support, and the work goes through permit. Greg checks the wall for plumbing, wiring and ductwork at the estimate so there are no surprises.

Can a kitchen remodel be part of an addition?

Yes, and it is a common pairing. Greg specializes in both additions and kitchen remodels, so a bump-out that gives a cramped kitchen more room, or a whole new kitchen inside a larger addition, is planned and built as one project.
