Kitchen Remodeling in Somerton, Philadelphia
This project is a full kitchen remodeling project in Somerton, Philadelphia completed by Showcase Remodels. For homeowners considering kitchen remodeling in Philadelphia, this renovation shows what happens when a cramped, closed-off first floor is transformed into one bright, open living space.
A Growing Family, a Shrinking Kitchen
Maria and her family of five – including three small children and a newborn – had outgrown their Somerton home. The first floor was closed off by load-bearing walls that separated the kitchen from the living and dining areas. Cooking, feeding kids, and hosting family all happened in tight, disconnected rooms that made daily life harder than it needed to be.
The kitchen itself was too cramped for the family to share. HVAC vents and plumbing ran through the walls that needed to come down, which meant the infrastructure had to be completely rerouted before any finish work could begin. The first floor felt like a series of small rooms instead of one connected home.
Showcase Remodels took on the full renovation – removing load-bearing walls, rerouting mechanical systems, and installing a custom structural beam to open the entire first floor into one flowing space. This kitchen remodeling project in Philadelphia required the team to work around the family’s schedule, with project manager Santo keeping everything on track so a household with a newborn could get through construction as quickly as possible.
Project Features
Marble Island With Gold Veining
Custom Structural Beam With Trim Detail
Where load-bearing walls once divided the first floor, a custom wood beam now spans the open layout. The detailed trim work turns what could have been a plain structural element into an architectural feature that defines the space.
White Shaker Cabinetry With Stainless Range Hood
Floor-to-ceiling white shaker cabinets line the kitchen walls, paired with a stainless steel range hood and marble backsplash. The bright, clean palette makes the space feel twice its original size and gives the family storage they never had before.
What the Homeowner Said
“We had an absolutely amazing experience with Showcase Remodels. They completed a full kitchen and first-floor renovation in our home, including removing load-bearing walls, rerouting HVAC vents and plumbing, and installing a new beam (check out the trim detail on the beam!). The craftsmanship and attention to detail were outstanding.
Santo was incredible—he was there from start to finish and treated our renovation as if it were his own home.
We have three small children (including a newborn at the time!), so living through construction could have been extremely stressful—but Showcase made it as easy as possible. Santo made sure everything stayed on schedule so the team was in and out efficiently.
Nolan and the guys working day in and day out truly went above and beyond our expectations. They paid attention to the little things that really make a difference and never cut corners. The crew kept the space clean, organized, and respectful of our home.
We couldn’t be happier with the final result and highly recommend Showcase Remodels to anyone looking for high-quality work and professionalism! I love my new kitchen!!”
