Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do when I'm planning a kitchen remodel?

There are many choices, no matter if you're renovating an existing space, or building a dream kitchen.

Before you start, take some time to look online for inspiration. Seek inspiration by looking at pictures of kitchens. Make notes about design ideas. You can then use pen and paper to pinpoint exactly where each element should go.

Now think of ways to improve upon these spaces. What can you do to improve these spaces? What would you change? If you want to get creative, why not ask someone who knows what she's talking about?

Once you've figured out what you want to accomplish, it's time to start. Start with the basics. Get rid of all unnecessary clutter. Dispose of appliances you aren't using often. Replace old fixtures by newer ones.

Next, find tight areas in your kitchen. This could mean looking for places that don't have enough storage or countertop space. Consider how you can make the most of these spots. You might be able to turn them into wine cellars or pantries.

Lighting is also important. Do you have a place that would benefit from brighter lighting? A wall sconce might brighten up dark corners.

Once you have compiled your list of improvements, the fun begins: implementing them.

Don't worry if it's not easy at first. Just keep working until you've got it all figured out. Enjoy using your project every day.

What is a timeless kitchen backsplash design?

A subway tile backsplash is timeless. For your kitchen, however, we recommend a full-height backsplash. This would allow you to run the countertop as your backsplash all the way up to your upper cabinets. This creates the illusion you have a larger kitchen.

Should cabinets be lighter or darker than walls?

There are no guidelines for this. This will be a personal decision and will vary depending on the dimensions, shape, and design of your kitchen. If your kitchen is small, dark cabinets may make it seem smaller and cramped. You can brighten up the space by using lighter cabinets to make it seem larger.

A large kitchen can be made more intimate by using dark cabinets. Lighter cabinets will allow the space to feel larger and open.

It is up to the homeowner to choose the right cabinet colour and design for their kitchen. If you're still unsure, consult a professional designer who can help you make the best decision for your space.

What place should pots and saucepans be in the kitchen?

Pots, pans and other small items should be stored above the stove in a cupboard. This makes them easily accessible when you need them and keeps your kitchen counters looking clean and uncluttered. You might also want to consider a pot rack that will help you keep your pots & pans organized and in easy reach.

How do you remodel a kitchen in your home?

Plan your kitchen remodeling. Decide what you would like to do and how much.
Locate a contractor. Ask for bids from multiple contractors. Then choose the one that you are most comfortable with.
Demolition. This is the best part! Take out all the cabinets, countertops, appliances.
Installation. Installation.
Finishing touches. Your kitchen remodel is complete when you add finishing touches such as new hardware or paint.

How To

How to select a kitchen renovation contractor

These tips can help you make the right choice when hiring a Kitchen Remodel contractor.

Ask around and get feedback from your friends about their experiences with contractors. It's a great way for contractors to receive honest feedback. Ask them about their quality of work, professionalism, cleanliness, punctuality, and punctuality. Ask them about their experiences with contractors. If they had problems with the contractor, how did they solve them?
Request quotes from several companies. Be prepared to provide a detailed description of your project and explain why you want to hire someone else. It's a good idea to tell them that your search is for someone who has experience in kitchen renovations. Also, you can include information about the space, such as the dimensions and the materials used. You should tell them exactly what finish you desire (i.e., countertops and cabinets, backsplash, flooring). Don't forget to mention anything specific that you would like done during the project. You might want to install new appliances. Do you prefer a particular type of cabinetry or style? Is there a unique feature like a wine refrigerator or built-in microwave oven that you would like included?
Find out whether the company has insurance and worker's compensation coverage. Look online to determine if the contractor has any trade associations. It is best to work with a company who is a part of a well-respected organization.
Meet with the contractor to discuss your specific project. Ask them about their qualifications, experience, and methods. Find out their approach to your project and the timeline they have in mind.
Get references from former clients. Don't take a contractor's word for it. Ask for references. Go back through his list of references and call the people he recommends. Let them know that you would like to talk to them about their positive experiences with this contractor.
Look at reviews left by past customers on sites like Yelp, Angie's List, and Houzz. These sites are popular for homeowners who want to leave feedback after they've completed projects. If you see positive reviews, it is likely that you will get a high-quality job.
To plan your kitchen remodel, you might consider hiring a professional kitchen designer. An experienced designer will have a better understanding of what looks best in your particular kitchen. A skilled designer will also know the latest trends in kitchens.
