Please reply with anyone you've worked with and was happy with their results in the following areas of work:Framer carpenter (I need a wall cut out to create a counter top bar between kitchen & dining room)Kitchen/Bath Cabinets (refinished on one wall & new ones installed on the other)Tile (shower surround and kitchen back splash)Granite Counter top installationPainter (paint full 2 br/bth condo, all walls & ceilings, framework, & possibly fireplace and cabinets)I appreciate your help in advance!

I also did the kitchen - cabinets, floors, paint, fan, countertops, appliances, backsplash.  

I remember looking at a beautifully renovated  duplex on Zillow in Atlanta the other day, with backsplash, new appliances, flooring, etc. but the area was iffy!

I put in granite tops, pullout faucets, porcelain backsplashes, and microwave hoods, plus dishwashers in the 2BRs.  

Wash back splash and walls in the bugs area of interest with 409 or some other cleaner - bugs hate the smell of disinfectant.

Change the counter and backsplash with granite.

PPS - Based on what I am seeing in the comps photos I received, I am planning to install "B" level granite (probably Santa Cecilia) while reusing the existing drop in sink, porcelain tile or "stone-look" LVT floors, tile backsplash, and (hopefully) relatively inexpensive "semi-custom" cabinets (to make the most of the available space in a small kitchen where there is no possibility to expand the room).If anyone has advice about good value semi-custom cabinets, please share it with me!

I’ve found HD laminate with white subway tile backsplash looks great is easy to clean & affordable

*new roof*interior and exterior paint*new flooring*updated electrical system*opened up doorway between dinning room and living room*all new kitchen (cabinets, stainless steal appliances, granite countertops)*trendy board and batten window shuttersThe top selling points were the beautifully tiled bathrooms and kitchen backsplash.

For the sub-median houses, we feel that a backsplash is a relatively inexpensive add that makes the finished product stand out in the neighborhood.
