Remove countertop, fur down and valance over the sink
Brian and Catherine want granite countertops, and they want to remove a fur down that serves no clear purpose other than to display overhead décor.
So, we’re removing the dated laminate countertop and tearing down that fur down, along with the valance over the sink.

Install Granite Countertops and Faucet
Next, we set the island slab. Stone Interiors, the granite installers, cut out the opening for Catherine’s cooktop and did the same for the sink.

Brian’s business came in handy for this renovation because he created a “digital backsplash,” a custom, vinyl backsplash that no one else has.
We also added a new faucet from Delta’s Allentown Kitchen Collection.

Add Hardware and Light Fixtures
We outfitted Brian and Catherine’s kitchen with Rok Hardware’s knobs and hinges.
And remember those unflattering fluorescent lights?
They’re gone — replaced with these stunning fixtures from Linea Lighting.
I have a similar kitchen with narrow passageways n no island. This picture shows me it can be added
Glad to hear it, Carolyn!

Thank you!

Hi, Chantal,
We used Sherwin Williams Agreeable Gray for this project.
Thanks for your question!
This episode has inspired me to make similar changes to our kitchen. What paint sprayer do you recommend? I am ready to brighten up by painting cabinets, adding trim, etc. Love the show! Thank you, Christine
Hi, Christine,
We used Homeright’s Finish Max HVLP sprayer for this project.
