Kitchen Remodel · Pasadena, CA
Dark walnut cabinets, a marble countertop that runs up the wall as the backsplash, stainless appliances and custom pull out storage. A Pasadena kitchen that works as well as it looks.
Finished The homeowners chose Juda Builders for a total kitchen remodel. They wanted a clean, modern look. Their plan was dark walnut cabinets with marble countertops that go all the way up the wall as a matching backsplash.
That combination looks simple, but it asks a lot of the people building it. The marble has to be cut and set so the veins line up, and the cabinets have to fit the room closely. We planned the job around those two details.
The dark cabinets have a flat, slim profile with simple handles. Against them, the pale marble stands out, with gold and gray veins running through it. The counter and the backsplash use the same stone, so the wall looks like part of the countertop.
The kitchen also has a stainless gas range with a range hood, a stainless dishwasher and refrigerator, a black undermount sink with a gold tone faucet, recessed lights, and wood look plank flooring.
When a countertop stone also covers the wall, you can see its pattern across a large area. The veins in this marble are gold and gray, and they can look odd if they stop at a seam or shift behind the stove.
The homeowner told us that lining up the veins behind the stove and around the window takes real skill. They said the installers got it right. In general, this kind of work starts with a plan for how the slabs will sit before any cutting, so the pattern flows across the seams.
The cabinets are the main color in the room, and they are also where the work shows day to day. The homeowner mentioned custom pull out organizers inside the pantry units, and said they save a lot of space. Pull outs bring items to you, so you don't have to reach to the back of a deep shelf.
If storage is a top priority in your kitchen, tell us early. It affects the cabinet layout.
A kitchen remodel touches many trades, and the order matters. In general, it starts with the plan: the layout, the cabinets, the counters and where the appliances go. Then comes demolition, followed by plumbing and electrical changes. After that the flooring, cabinets and counters go in, and the appliances are hooked up last.
The homeowner said the plumbing, flooring and appliance hookups all happened on time, with the supervisor keeping the crew on a tight schedule. The exact scope and order depend on your kitchen, and we confirm them with you in writing. This project is part of our kitchen remodeling service.

Yes. Many homeowners run the countertop material up the wall for a seamless look. It means more stone, so it affects the price, and the veining has to be planned so it lines up. This project does it with marble.
The slabs are laid out before they are cut, so the pattern continues across seams and around obstacles like a stove or a window. Ask to see the layout plan before the stone is cut.
It is beautiful, but natural marble can stain and etch, so it needs sealing and some care around acidic things like lemon juice and wine. If you want the look with less upkeep, ask us about other stone options.
