From water damage to wow
After water damage caused the shower floor to sink, this 1997 West Linn home underwent a thoughtful kitchen and bathroom remodel. The updates addressed structural issues, modernized the kitchen for potential resale, and replaced family room carpet with hardwoods to create a cohesive flow. The homeowners prioritized quality materials while staying mindful of costs.
