Kitchens: The Busiest Place in the House!

July 7, 2014

 

It’s no secret that your kitchen and kitchen cabinetry take a beating considering it is the busiest place the house. Schrapper’s Fine Cabinetry and Design meets and surpasses the challenge to make custom cabinetry that holds up under high use.

Doors and drawers are slammed shut, chairs are scraped across floors, and countertops become cutting boards in most households. What to do to protect and save your new kitchen, so as not to incur another remodel any time soon?

Schrapper’s clients in Jupiter, and surrounding areas, know that the quality of materials paired with the workmanship that is delivered time and time again, will withstand the toughest toddler or pre-teen!

Better Choices – Longer Life
Starting from the ground up; flooring has changed considerably over the last 10 years. Newer scratch-resistant tiles are now available. The barrage of testing, including the "Hess Rake" and various ASTM tests, helps the consumer make a knowledgeable decision. These tests assess for chipping, scratching and scrub ability. Products come with spec sheets, prepared to answer all your questions.

Cabinetry has also undergone improvements, from the more closed grain woods, durable finishes, stronger hinges and soft-close options, as well as, hardware that is as beautiful as it is functional.

Installation of "smarter" countertops, such as sealed granite and manmade organic based materials, has upped the ante in beautiful countertops that don’t show cuts and scrapes like the laminates of old. The variety of patterned granites, and marble, is also a blessing helping camouflage when incidents do occur.

Words You Might Never Hear Again!
The remarkable soft-close doors and drawers that have become almost de rigeur, have changed the way parents interact with their kids. You may never hear the words, "Stop slamming the cupboard!" again.
