To help simplify the noise, the vast majority of kitchens can be categorized into 2 types: custom and semi-custom/prefabricated (aka. think Home Depot or Lowe’s). As mentioned before, Canaan falls into the custom category, but why? Well, let’s stop and think about the “why” for a second. You’re a unique person, and your list of kitchen needs and their order of importance is most likely unique to you as well. So why would you try and make a cookie-cutter, kitchen fit in your home? You wouldn’t (or at least, you shouldn’t!).

Keep in mind that, as houses age, they naturally settle. This means that once perfectly straight walls may begin to warp, or a previously quiet floor might start making an unfamiliar noise. While this may seem like cause for concern, it’s actually just part of a home’s natural aging process. However, when it comes time to renovate, it’s vital to be aware of these peculiarities so that they can be accommodated for and offset as much as possible.
