You can get an even beam with the puck lights, just depends on the bulb angle. 120 degrees makes it pretty uniform.

Here is the kitchen from our Brampton house, it's no Bill, but we where selling and kept it under 20k. The kitchen was 24x10 I think?
It was huge, I miss it lol. I did everything on my own, but had dad come and help do the top cabinets.
It was a lot of work. We did not change the appliances or the floor, or lights or remove any walls lol.
I think total cost for everything came in at $18,XXX

I had Bill dreams but my wife squashed all the cool ideas, rightfully so. We just needed something fresh and clean for the sale.

this little mofo right here is badass. hot water tap in the garage

plz do. i'm researching under cabinet lighting right now and i'm not sure if i want to just get a kit or even go as far as running an extra outlet to the bottom and then to a switch on the wall.

i've actually put a bit of thought into this lighting thing, new fridge will have that middle drawer which i'll fill with snacks for the kid. I also come home late at night and the place is dark making me trip and almost break my neck so i've been thinking about putting the upper bottom cabinet LED's on one switch, and the floor cabinet lights at the bottom on another switch so i can leave that on and not break my face, or the kid can see where she's going if she goes downstairs in the middle of the night for a drink or something.

also, i don't like it when you can see the lighting, so i'm asking the cabinet makers (cabinets have been measured and are building right now) to add a 2" lip/skirt to tuck the lights up into it so you don't see it.

this looks terrible.



trying to pull this off so i can just leave the bottom floor lights on.

I like the toe kick lights, although they're a little ricey for me. Those puck lights for the under cabs are the completely wrong ones, they look like fucking spot lights, lol! This is why you want a wide beam angle.

^you're right, i don't like the puck lights on the uppers, i would basically have the same thing as the toe kick lights on the uppers.

You can basically put anything behind a light valence.. LED light strip, puck lights, whatever. It hides everything.

Valence looks really nice and spending $$$ on the kitchen is never a bad thing.

oh no the hardwood you see there is the first row for the living room. he said that he's going to make a transition piece to the tile so there's no bump there, should come out clean but let's see.

you know what's cray tho, later on in the year we are planning to replace all the hardwood in the living room all the way to the front door, maybe to darker haven't decided. get rid of popcorn celing and put pot lights and paint. continue that hardwood for the stairs, new railing, and continue all that hardwood into the master, hallway and two rooms. paint the top floor, and update both upstairs washrooms (just new tile, mirrors, paint, vanity, tub and shitter). the powder room i'll update myself with a new vanity, mirror paint and shitter and then i've renovated this entire fucking house in 5 years. oh getting the roof done too this year, windows are new enough they can wait. \:\|

Yo that's sick. It's going to feel like a new place when done. We did a whole house reno minus the kitchen. Was a pain in the ass but so worth it at the end.

Kind of. I only wanted the basement done and replace all carpet with hardwood. Wife wanted the master bath redone. Also my daughters bathroom, but that was just going to be replace counter top and new tiles. That turned into a gut job and everything was new except for the tub as we liked the original one lol

All in all we were 20% over budget lmfao as we didn't want to cheap out on certain things and regret later on. I'll just say that I had no idea how much material could cost on certain things like the glass for the shower cray cray
