Spring Cleaning
Spring is finally here! As we begin to stash away those boots and winter coats, we begin thinking about spring cleaning. Spring cleaning means, to many of us, a time to clean the windows and baseboards. Get into the corners where cobwebs have grown over the winter. Air out the house. Change the filters in the furnace. There are countless ways we prepare our homes in celebration of the end of winter. But, I don’t know how many people think about cleaning out and purging outdated food from their pantries, refrigerators and freezers. That is another step to consider when getting rid of those boots that haven’t been worn over the past three winters. As we add food to our freezer, it seems the older purchases get shoved to the back or the bottom. It may be time to clean out the food that has expired or accumulated too much freezer burn to be identifiable. Below is a link to a chart that provides the shelf life of countless food items. Hope that this will be helpful as you work through your spring cleaning.

Express Custom Kitchens in NARI Remodeled Homes Tour
Schloegel Design Remodel is proud to be showcasing our Express Custom Kitchens concept for the first time on the NARI Remodeled Homes tour. Come see how we magically transformed this 25-year old kitchen into a beautiful new “living room” in less than three weeks. See how our designer, in working with the homeowners, fashioned a new kitchen that showcases a combination of glazed and stained cabinetry, Portofino granite counter tops, Tuscan Walnut backsplash tile with bronze metal accents, under- cabinet and overhead lighting, stainless steel under-mount kitchen sink and faucet, distressed hardwood floors and stainless steel appliances. The clock is ticking!

Historical Hyde Park Renovation Safe Lead Paint Removal
We began working on the historical Hyde Park renovation a few weeks ago. Since the building was erected in 1921, we followed safe lead practices as required by the EPA which included the isolation of the entire building, removal and proper disposal of all debris. Upon the completion of demolition, the building was verified as lead-free and ready to be toured. The attached pictures show the first floor kitchen and hall bathroom. This bathroom is the same one that was pictured in our blog posting of February 7. You can see up into the second floor hall bathroom from the first floor! This is a great project and watching it come together will be lots of fun. Keep tuned!

Bathroom Makeover Before
Bathroom Makeover After, Beautiful!
Wow what a dramatic bathroom makeover from Schloegel’s One Week Bath! The old pink tile and pedestal sink came out in this bedroom bath and was replaced with classic white subway tile and a furniture style cabinet with Carrera marble top. We chose a pomegranate color for the walls that truly makes a dramatic statement. How elegant and easy — just one week!
