Conversations with Roger Koenig, Kitchen Tune-Up

BY TERRI FERRAGUT | PHOTOGRAPHY BY KITCHEN TUNE-UP

Although your desire is mightily strong, you are not alone if you procrastinate the updating of your tired-out kitchen. With today’s hectic lifestyles, you might not want to deal with the time involved, the cost or the inconvenience that can be involved when tackling home projects. It might seem overwhelming considering your busy lifestyle and, perhaps, resources. Inspired Home asked Roger Koenig, owner of locally owned, Kitchen Tune-Up Fargo-Moorhead, for his thoughts on this exact subject.

IH: I really like my original wood kitchen cabinets, but after years of family use, they look lifeless and worn. They really need to have a fresh, renewed look.

RK: If you like the color and style of your existing cabinets, renew them with our Tune-Up service. Wood cabinets and other wood surfaces need regular care to look and function new. Our exclusive process restores and repairs the original finish. We touch up areas that are worn, scratched or have greasy build-up. Adding new knobs and pulls offer a quick and affordable update. Most Tune-Ups are complete in one day and you’ll have your kitchen looking and feeling like new.

IH:My kitchen cabinetry is structurally in very good shape. What can I do to revamp and update the over-all style and design of my cabinets?

RK: We offer several options for this scenario at different price points — cabinet painting, cabinet redooring and cabinet refacing.

Kitchen Tune-Up offers 5 ways to update your cabinetry. Choose from reconditioning or cabinet painting to redooring, refacing or new custom cabinetry. Pictured are two complete kitchen remodels including custom cabinetry, flooring, tile, and countertops.

In North Dakota, we don’t slow down when it’s 30 below.

Our electricity has to be tough and dependable. Like us.

That’s why we combine the diverse strengths of our region’s renewable resources with our steadfast supply of North Dakota lignite coal – to ensure reliable power even when the wind isn’t blowing and the sun isn’t shining.

No, we don’t slow down when things freeze up.

Because we’re all in on all-of-the-above energy.

CABINET PAINTING This is an option if you like the style of your current cabinets but want to change the color. If you are looking for a solution that will last 2-5 years (depending on the use of your kitchen), this might be the right option. If you are looking for a more durable and longer-lasting change, consider our redooring and refacing services to get all new doors and drawer fronts.

CABINET REDOORING We’ll replace your cabinet doors and drawer fronts with new ones in your choice of style, color-matched to blend with your existing cabinet boxes. It’s a quick and easy way to update your kitchen and a popular choice for painted cabinets.

CABINET REFACING This popular service allows you to completely transform the look of your kitchen without the mess and expense of a total renovation. Like redooring, we’ll use your original cabinet boxes but update your doors and drawer fronts with new ones in your choice of style and color, complete with matching veneer.

IH:I am done with my old cabinets. What if I want my old cabinets out and a brand-new kitchen?

RK: We can help by designing a new kitchen and providing custom cabinets that will function well for your family and lifestyle. We also provide custom cabinetry for bathrooms, laundry rooms, pantries, home offices, home entertainment areas and more.

IH: My countertops need help! Can you do that, too?

RK: Yes, we offer a Granite Tune-Up service. We’ll clean, seal and polish your granite countertops to help protect your investment. The process can be completed in only a few hours with no mess or odor. If you are looking for new countertops or tile backsplashes, we offer a full selection of products including granite, marble, quartz, solid-surface, laminate and many more.

Cabinet Refacing – After

Kitchen Tune-Up respects their clients time and busy schedules. Many cabinet refacing projects can be completed in less than one week. A completely “new” space is created without disturbing existing countertops, flooring, backsplash or appliances.

In this cabinet refacing project, a fresh new kitchen space emerged. One thing Koenig's clients say about their completed projects is, "we wish we would have done it sooner."

IH: My life is crazy busy with family and work. I need to get organized! Can you help me?

RK: Yes, we can help you get organized with roll-out trays, custom closets, cabinet organization and more. Knowing that your life is busy, we don’t want to be in your home any longer than necessary. We respect your home and your time, and always return calls within 24 hours. Give us a call and let us help you with your project whether it’s a quick update or a full remodel.
