What makes kitchen island installation different in Central San Diego?
Older San Diego, North Park, and South Park galley kitchens often gain a small island or a peninsula to add counter and storage. The crews we send build with full-overlay doors, a quartz top, and an overhang sized for two stools. When the wall to the family room is being opened, the island becomes the visual anchor between the two rooms and is sized to the new footprint.
