Buffalo conditions
What kitchen projects in Buffalo actually take
Much of Buffalo's older housing stock still runs undersized electrical service, so a real kitchen scope here budgets for a panel or circuit upgrade before the first induction range or double oven goes in. Kitchens hold their resale value well in Buffalo, and a clean mid-range scope usually beats an over-built one on return.
