$895
Small updates, big impact—this consultation helps you strategically refresh your kitchen with expert recommendations for high-impact, budget-friendly changes.
Choosing materials and finishes for your kitchen shouldn't feel like a guessing game. You want to get it right—the first time. But with endless options, fluctuating costs, and conflicting advice, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.
That’s where I come in, and show you the way.
With this Kitchen Blueprint, you’ll receive expert recommendations tailored to your style, budget, and real-world feasibility—so you can move forward with total confidence
Want to revive your kitchen without a full remodel?
✔ You want a fresh, updated kitchen—without the commitment of a full-scale remodel.
This service is for homeowners who want to make high-impact upgrades like cabinet refinishing, minor modifications, or material swaps—without gutting their kitchen.
✔ You’re considering cabinet refacing, modifications, or cabinet painting—rather than a full replacement.
If your kitchen layout works but needs a facelift, this Blueprint will help you select the right hard surface updates for a cohesive, timeless look.
✔ You need expert material & finish selections without full-service design.
You don’t need an interior designer handling every detail—you just need someone to guide you in making the right choices quickly and confidently.
✔ You want to avoid costly mistakes and ensure your selections are timeless and practical.
Renovation mistakes are expensive. This consultation helps you choose materials that fit your budget, work together seamlessly, and won’t feel outdated in a few years.
✔ You’re managing this remodel yourself—or working with a GC who needs clear direction.
Whether you’re taking a DIY approach, self-managing trades, or hiring a general contractor, this Blueprint provides expert guidance to keep your project moving smoothly.
✔ You have questions about budget, the order of trades, or construction management.
Even if you’ve never remodeled before or have never hired a trade, this consultation will help you understand what to expect, how to communicate with trades, and what needs to happen (and in what order) to avoid costly delays.
🚫 This is NOT for you if…
-
You need full layouts, floor plans, or cabinetry drawings—this is a selections-based service.
-
You want custom millwork or cabinetry redesigns—this works with your existing layout.
-
You expect ongoing revisions or full-service design support.
-
You’re doing a full new-build kitchen remodel from the ground up—that’s the Kitchen Build Blueprint!
📌 Bottom Line: If you’re making strategic cosmetic upgrades and need expert recommendations—while also having guidance on budgeting, working with trades, and construction timing—this service is for you.
Not Every Kitchen Needs a Gut Job—But It Does Need a Plan.
Without first looking at how your selections—tile, hardware, countertops, cabinetry, lighting, and more—come together with the realities of construction, it’s easy to hit a wall.
Most people focus only on design or only on construction, but a successful remodel requires both to work seamlessly.
The Refresh Package helps you reassess your selections, align them with your space, and ensure they fit within your timeline, budget, and trade coordination—so nothing gets overlooked.

Homeowners are constantly mislead into thinking they only have two choices: live with an outdated space or commit to a full-scale renovation. But there's a third option--the one no one talks about...
The Kitchen Refresh Blueprint is for homeowners who want significant changes without tearing their kitchen down to the studs. It’s not just about swapping out countertops or picking a trendy backsplash; it’s about curating selections—tile, hardware, cabinetry, lighting—that feel like they’ve always belonged. The biggest compliment I receive? That my cosmetic remodels look original to the home, not like an afterthought. Because a refresh isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about design and construction working together to create a seamless, intentional transformation
100+ Kitchens Transformed—Without a Full Remodel.
Hello! I'm Julie...
A curated refresh that blends design and construction seamlessly—ensuring that every selection (tile, hardware, lighting, countertops, cabinet paint) feels like it was meant to be there all along.
The result? A kitchen that looks intentional, high-end, and effortless—not like a patchwork remodel.
This is what I do. I’ve spent 20+ years in the design and construction world, refacing over 100 kitchens (and counting) with one goal: making sure every remodel looks like it belongs—not like it was slapped together in a weekend.
I don’t do cookie-cutter. I don’t do trends that fade fast. I focus on smart, strategic updates that feel timeless—so your home gets the refresh it deserves without the stress (or the gut-job price tag).
If you’re ready for a major transformation without major demolition, let’s talk.
P.S.
But here’s the thing—not every kitchen is a candidate for a refresh. Sometimes, what you really need is a full new build to get the function, flow, and impact you’re after. That’s why I offer both options—so you get the right solution for your space, not just a band-aid fix.
Not sure which one makes sense for you? I’ve got you. Check out my New Build Package to see if starting fresh is the better move.
We work with trusted industry partners but always find the right fit for your project.
