Abandoned kitchen transformation (part 1) #diy #renovation #renovationlife

What happens here

Proceed to the kitchen area to remove all cabinets and countertops. Begin by detaching cabinet doors and drawers. Then, use a pry bar to separate cabinet boxes from the walls and floor. Disconnect any plumbing lines (water supply and drain lines) from the sink, ensuring the main water supply is turned off beforehand. Use a wrench for plumbing connections. Once plumbing is disconnected, carefully lift and remove the countertop, which may include the sink. Finally, remove any upper cabinets and backsplash material.

Goal: Remove all kitchen fixtures, cabinets, and plumbing connections
