“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 we remodeled in 2020. While he appreciated the space and quality of craftsmanship, several design elements didn’t meet his personal kitchen needs. As an avid cook, he wanted to upgrade the existing apartment-style appliances and improve overall functionality to support his chef skills and daily use.
Our previous work on the condo provided valuable knowledge to address the remodel both effectively and efficiently. 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 without disrupting the prominent stone edge detail. Additional functional changes included the integration of a reverse osmosis water filter and transitioning from an induction to a gas heat source.
This condo project required meticulous deconstruction and precise craftsmanship to address the desired improvements while maintaining a cohesive design. From intricate tile cuts and seamless outlet placement to enhanced storage and improved lighting, custom details transform this kitchen from an infrequently used space to a place that suits culinary exploration.
