Install cabinets and countertops
Install new cabinets and countertops, and your new appliances such as the refrigerator, oven and dishwasher. Install the backsplash after the countertops are in place and then erect your lighting fixtures, including under-cabinet lights or pendants.
Thoroughly clean the entire kitchen and dispose of any remaining debris.
