Project Feature: Savage Modern Kitchen Refresh

We’ve remodeled our fair share of kitchens here at Shaeffer Design-Build, but it never gets old to watch each transformation take shape. There’s just something special about helping homeowners take an outdated space and breathe new life into it. On that note, we’re excited to share the details of this kitchen remodel we recently completed in Savage, Minnesota!

We had so much fun helping these homeowners update their kitchen. Our team installed brand-new custom cabinetry featuring a beautiful stained finish and contemporary hardware. New flooring, tile backsplash, and eye-catching light fixtures tie the design together and give the kitchen a modern twist. With plenty of storage and new appliances, the homeowners are sure to love their remodeled kitchen for years to come!

Project Feature: Elko Basement Transformation

Today, we’re sharing a sneak peek of a recent basement transformation we completed in Elko, Minnesota. The homeowners reached out to our team to help them turn their unfinished lower level into a functional living space.

The unfinished space provided the perfect blank slate to bring the homeowners’ vision to life. We started by covering the insulation and exposed ceiling with drywall and installing durable plank flooring. Once that was done, we got started on the final design.

The completed basement features a fireplace flanked by built-in cabinetry and a wet bar, a bathroom, and a custom barn door opening into flex space. Whether hanging out as a family or entertaining guests, the homeowners are sure to enjoy their lower level for years to come!

2020 Year in Review

Can you believe 2021 is only a few months away? This past year has been difficult for so many; we’re sure plenty of folks are ready to see 2020 and its challenges in the rearview mirror.

Although the year had its ups and downs, our team was fortunate to work steadily still. Our priority was, and remains, serving our clients while doing everything in our power to keep them and our crew safe.

One unexpected result of 2020s lockdowns is a renewed interest in remodeling. Many of our clients have been working, schooling, and spending almost all their free time at home. It’s no wonder that homeowners are motivated to invest in and update their spaces!

Thank you to every client who worked with us this past year. Your support means so much to us, and we are grateful for every single project. Scroll below for a look at some of our projects from 2020, and we wish you all a happy and healthy 2021!
