“Having built three houses and remodeled five or six, clear communication and prompt follow-up are key to a successful project. Kraft demonstrated these qualities right from the start. During the project, they were careful to protect the rest of the condo from dust and dirt (while working on the kitchen). Their subs were all professional and on time. The quality of work was excellent. I would highly recommend them.”
Portland Waterfront Kitchen Remodel
2025 | Portland, Oregon
This homeowner purchased the Portland South Waterfront Condo, a property Kraft remodeled back in 2020. While the new homeowner appreciated the overall footprint of the previous remodel, several design elements didn’t meet his personal kitchen needs. As an avid cook, he wanted to upgrade the existing apartment-sized appliances and improve the functionality of cabinets and the countertop space to support his chef skills and daily use.
We readdressed the kitchen back wall, updating the range and sink and refreshing the overall aesthetic. A stunning black Ann Saks accent tile provides a dramatic focal point and complements the sophisticated waterfall edge island countertop. We removed a built-in island wine fridge and installed a microwave drawer and additional storage without disrupting the prominent stone edge detail. Other changes included the integration of a reverse osmosis water system and transitioning from an induction to a gas heat source.
This condo project required careful deconstruction and precise craftsmanship to integrate the improvements alongside areas that remained untouched. Customized details transformed this kitchen from an infrequently used space to a place that suits culinary exploration.
