Stoughton is a city on the Yahara River with a strong Norwegian heritage. Madison Elite Cabinets helps Stoughton homeowners update kitchens, baths and living spaces, whether the house is a century old or only a few years old.
Stoughton has Victorian-era homes. These houses often have tall ceilings, deep window sills and trim that is hard to find today. Remodeling them calls for care. New cabinets should respect the old lines without copying them badly.
We can build cabinets with trim and door profiles that echo the house. Inset doors, beaded panels and period-style hardware suit many older kitchens. Or we can go for simple shaker doors in a color that sits quietly in the room. Both approaches work if the proportions are right.
Floors that slope, walls that lean and chimneys that jut into the kitchen are common. We scribe cabinets to those shapes, so there are no gaps. Our post on cabinets for older homes lists other surprises, such as hidden pipes and old wiring.
If your family has Norwegian roots, you may own treasured plates, textiles or folk art. A hutch or a built-in cabinet can display them. Glass doors and interior lights show off treasured dishes. Built-in cabinets are made for this kind of display.
Holiday meals call for big prep space and a good flow. Think about a large island or a baking station with a marble or stone top. Kitchen cabinets with deep drawers for rolling pins, mixers and roasting pans make big meals easier. A tall pantry stores bulk items.
The Madison area gets about 52 inches of snow a year. A mudroom or back entry with cabinets and a bench handles boots and coats. In the garage, garage cabinets keep tools and salt away from your car. Our guide on road salt and garage storage lists the best materials.
If your old cabinets are solid wood, restoring them can be better than replacing them. Refinishing strips old finish and restores the grain. Painting gives a fresh color while keeping the boxes. Compare them in refinishing versus painting.
Homes built before 1978 may contain lead-based paint. Federal rules set lead-safe work practices for paid renovation in those homes. Tell us the age of your house when you book, so we can plan the work with that in mind. It also helps to tell us about past water damage or old wiring.
Indoor work can happen in any month, which makes winter a good time to plan a kitchen. Garage and outdoor storage are easier to install when the weather is dry. We can map a calendar that fits your holidays, so you are not cooking in a work zone at Thanksgiving.
When relatives come to town, the kitchen becomes the center of the house. Plan a staging counter near the dining room for serving dishes. Add a drawer for linens and a tall cabinet for the roaster and big pots. Extra seating at an island lets guests stay close without crowding the cook.
Stoughton has manufacturers, a municipal utility and downtown shops. Commercial cabinets suit break rooms, shop counters and storage areas.
