A Two-Tone Kitchen Remodel in Englewood, CO

This Englewood home wanted a kitchen with some personality. The old layout was serviceable but dated, and the owners were ready for something that felt designed rather than builder-standard.

We paired crisp white shaker perimeter cabinets with a warm walnut island, topped in white quartz with a waterfall edge and bar seating. The contrast between the white cabinetry and the natural wood island is what carries the room.

The showstopper is the floor: a black-and-white checkerboard tile that gives the space a timeless, slightly playful feel. A hexagon marble backsplash, custom vent hood, gas cooktop, built-in wall ovens, and glass pendants round it out.

It is a kitchen that photographs beautifully and works even better, with clear zones for cooking, prep, and gathering at the island.

Questions About This Project

Do you remodel kitchens in Englewood?

Yes. Englewood is a short drive from our shop and we know its housing stock well, from older bungalows to updated ranches and two-stories.

Is a checkerboard floor a lot of upkeep?

No more than any tile floor. Porcelain tile in a checkerboard pattern is durable and easy to clean, and the pattern hides everyday wear better than a single solid color.

Do you handle permits and inspections?

Yes. We pull and manage all permits and inspections with the local building department for your project.

"From initial interview through design, demolition, construction, installation, through to final cleanup, Jeff and his crew were professional, competent, honest and flexible. Jeff's commitment to quality work and customer satisfaction goes beyond lip service and is put into practice that's reflected in the completed project. Thank you CPR."

Randall K.

"Jeff is the best! He did a full remodel on our upstairs bathroom and it looks beautiful. From the initial estimate to the end of the project he and his team were professional and easy to work with. Jeff is so honest, ethical, and true to his word. His pricing is very fair, he’s meticulous about the work and truly cares about quality. He was easy to reach at any time and always responsive. His crew totally gutted our bathroom and did a total renovation. We’re 100% happy with the result. We even worked with his designer (no extra fee) who helped us choose various things, like tile, faucets, etc. She was so helpful, and like Jeff, always available/responsive to us."

Susan M.

"Jeff and his team did an outstanding job on our bathroom remodel. Mike worked long hours to get it done on the tight deadline we had because of guests arriving. The work turned out to be more extensive than planned because of unforeseen water damage, and everyone took this is stride and made sure the project was still done right–and on time! Jeff was considerate of our budget and guided me to make good decisions on materials, taking labor costs into account as well. Their designer, Mary Sue, was so professional & friendly and right on top of every decision that needed to be made. 100% recommend Smither the Fixer. What a great experience!"

Andrea L.

"Jeff and his team did a fantastic job finishing our basement! They were communicative and easy to work with throughout the entire process. We are thrilled with the end result and will definitely call Jeff for future projects!"

Megan B.

"I have used Smither the Fixer on a number of occasions. Jeff and his team are professional, they have skills in a number of area, and they always complete the job on time, and within budget. Jeff guarantees his work to be done as expected, he comes back and checks on the job, gives his team direction and ensures quality work. On top of that he and his team are good people who care about the customer and the work that they are performing."
