Is your kitchen in need of an upgrade? As one of the most important areas in the home, it’s no surprise that kitchen remodels are consistently one of the top renovation choices for owners looking to revitalize their space. If you’re ready to build your dream kitchen but are unsure of where to start, below are a few easy areas to consider that will help you transform your space in no time!
Before Getting Started
Before jumping into the thick of a remodel, it’s important to consider your overall objective with the changes you’ll be making, as well as your budget and timeline. Are you looking to fix up a few minor issues, or overhaul the space? While both minor and major renovations will help add value to your property as a whole, having a clear picture in mind makes deciding where to start easier both from a design and a budget standpoint. Once you know how you’d like to proceed as well as your overall budget, working with a contractor will make planning the remodel breeze!
Common updates include:
Replacing Old/Damaged Cabinetry
Over time, cabinetry can begin to show its age and affect the aesthetic of your kitchen and/or dining area. Replacing dinging shelves with custom pieces can go a long way towards revitalizing your space, and will provide long term payoff when installed correctly.
Changing Out Older Appliances
Still using the same oven that came with your home all those years ago? Has it been ages since you swapped out the fridge or gave your kitchen a refresh? Updating to more modern appliances will not only give your space a face lift, but could also save you a considerable amount in energy bills each year.
Flooring
With all the foot traffic kitchens see on a daily basis, your flooring can take quite the beating. Installing new floors is an instant way to breathe new life into the room while also increasing the value of your property in the future should you plan to sell.
Open Things Up
One of the most common reasons homeowners choose to remodel their kitchen is the fact that older houses often have a small, closed off layout. This can be cumbersome when it comes to food preparation, family time, and entertaining. An open concept remodel allows you to have plenty of space for everyone to enjoy, and can often seamlessly blend multiple rooms with a stylish flair.
