At True Builders, one of our favorite projects to do is a kitchen remodel. It’s a room where our customers spend a lot of time cooking, entertaining, and hanging out with the family. It also helps give homes a facelift and can be a great return on investment for the homeowner. So when the Geers in Brandon, FL, called us asking to consult on their new kitchen remodeling project, we jumped at the chance to help them plan out the kitchen they’d always dreamed of.

Learn more about the project and check out some photos below in this kitchen remodeling project case study.


Creating an Open-Concept Kitchen Design & Plan

One of the first things we noticed about the Geers’ existing kitchen was that it seemed closed off to the rest of the home. We worked to create an open-concept kitchen design and plan that would remove some walls and really open up their existing space to give them more room within the main area. Open-concept kitchens allow for everyone to be involved in whatever is going on throughout the rest of the home.

At True Builders, we have an on-site showroom where the Geers were able to come visit and pick out the exact materials they wanted for their new kitchen.

We also opted to install some nice, brighter flooring in the kitchen, living room, and dining room. Using the same flooring throughout created a more cohesive feel and made the entire area feel lighter. Our team also repainted the area with a light grey color to go along with the new features of the kitchen.


Tearing Down Existing Walls to Make Room for New Cabinets & Granite Countertops

The Lakeland homeowner had some wood flooring that had to be taken up due to water leaking underneath it, so we removed the flooring in order to remove all excess and sitting water. After that, we worked on drying out the rest of the home with about 35 fans and other proper equipment, such as dehumidifiers. This took a few days to ensure the house was completely dry, as we wanted to make sure no moisture was left behind, as that can lead to mold issues.


The next step is to rebuild areas of the home to fix the water damage that occurred.

Once the home is dry, the team will create a plan to fix and rebuild any areas that were affected by the water damage. That will involve floor replacement and taking a look at the faulty toilet water supply line to ensure it doesn’t cause another bad leak. 

It’s recommended to routinely check your toilet water supply lines for any signs of water leakage.


How can you prevent this from happening to your home?

Water damage, whether it’s from a leaky toilet or stormwater, can cause many issues throughout your central Florida home. Being proactive is the best way to keep water from damaging your home, and that involves doing several things such as:

  • Monitor toilet supply lines regularly
  • Check for any areas of roof weakness
  • Examine ceilings for any signs of leaks
  • Keep your gutters clear
  • Ensure trees are trimmed and can’t fall on your house or roof
  • Check your water bill for unexplained increases

In the event water damage does occur, make sure you call a water damage restoration company such as True Builders immediately so we can mitigate any issues that can happen. Ignoring water damage leads to problems like mold damage, which can have negative effects on your health.
