Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best order to remodel a kitchen?

  • Plumbing and electrical rough-ins
  • Drywalling
  • Painting
  • Kitchen cabinet installation
  • Flooring installation
  • Countertop installation
  • Backsplash installation
  • Appliances


How do you organise an open-concept cooking space?

To organize an open space, it is important to establish a clear workflow. This means having all appliances close together. This will make cleaning much simpler. It is a good idea to keep your cooking utensils in close proximity so that they are easy to reach. Keep food storage close by the point of use. It will be easier to grab what you want and place it away.


Where do I start when planning a kitchen?

There are many options, whether you are renovating an existing space or creating a new dream kitchen.

Spend some time online looking for inspiration before you start. Look for photos of kitchens that inspire you. Note down design ideas. Then sit down with a pen and paper and figure out exactly where you'd like to put each element.

Think about what you could do to improve these spaces. What could be improved? What would be your contribution? Ask someone who is an expert in your field to help you get creative.

Once you know what you want to achieve, it's now time to start. Start with the basics. Remove all extra clutter. Don't keep appliances that aren’t being used frequently. Replace worn-out fixtures with new ones.

Next, take a look at areas of your kitchen that are too small. This means finding places where there isn't room for storage or countertops. You can think of ways to maximize these spaces. You might be able to turn them into wine cellars or pantries.

Lighting is important. Is there a spot that could benefit from a brighter light? Perhaps a wall sconce would help brighten up a dark corner.

After you've made your improvements list, it's time to implement them!

Do not worry if your knowledge isn't perfect at first. Just keep working until you've got it all figured out. And remember, no project will be complete unless you enjoy using it daily.


Statistics

  • According to Burgin, some hinges have this feature built-in, but it's an add-on cost for other models of about $5 retail, adding up to $350 to $500 for an entire kitchen, depending on size. (hgtv.com)
  • Experts also recommend setting aside 20 percent of your budget for surprises, including unpleasant demolition discoveries. One is water damage, the electricity that is not up to code, or other budget-spiking gotchas. (hgtv.com)
  • Keep 10 to 25 percent of List 2, depending on the budget. (familyhandyman.com)
  • In the Pacific region (Alaska, California, Washington, and Oregon), according to Remodeling Magazine, that same midrange central kitchen remodel jumps to $72,513, and a major upscale kitchen remodels jumps up $11,823 from the national average to $143,333. (hgtv.com)
  • It's a fantastic thing about most home improvement projects: no matter the job. It often seems like the last 20% is the most difficult. (familyhandyman.com)

How To

How do I choose a kitchen contractor?

These tips will help you make an informed decision when selecting a Kitchen Remodel Contractor.

  1. Ask your friends to share their experiences with different contractors. This is a great way of getting honest feedback from people who have worked with contractors. Ask about their work ethic, professionalism, cleanliness and punctuality. Ask them if they have had any issues with the contractor. If they had problems with the contractor, how did they solve them?
  2. Request quotes from several companies. Give a detailed description of the project and explain why it is important to you to hire someone else. Let them know that you're looking to hire someone who can handle kitchen remodels. You can also include details about the size of the room, the type of materials used, etc. You should tell them exactly what finish you desire (i.e., countertops and cabinets, backsplash, flooring). Do not forget to tell them any special requests you have for the project. If you are looking for new appliances, this is a good example. Do you desire a particular style or type of cabinetry Is there a unique feature like a wine refrigerator or built-in microwave oven that you would like included?
  3. Find out whether the company has insurance and worker's compensation coverage. Check online to see if the contractor belongs to any trade associations. It is always best to choose a company that is a member of a respected organization.
  4. To discuss your project, schedule a meeting with the contractor. Ask them about their qualifications, experience, and methods. Find out how they would approach your project and what kind of timeline they envision.
  5. Get references from former clients. Don't take a contractor's word for it. Ask for references. Call the people he recommends by going through his references. Tell them that you want to hear about your positive experience working with this contractor.
  6. See past customers' reviews 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 there are positive reviews, you can be assured you will get a great job.
  7. Hire a kitchen designer to help you plan your kitchen remodel. A skilled designer will be able to tell you what your kitchen should look like. The latest trends in kitchen design will be mastered by the designer.
