Frequently Asked Questions

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

There are many choices whether you want to remodel an existing space and/or design a dream new kitchen.

Spend some time looking for inspiration online before you start. Find inspiration from photos of kitchens. Note down design ideas. With a pen, paper and a pencil, draw out where each element will be located.

Now, think about how you can improve upon these spaces. What could be improved? What would you add? Get creative by asking someone who knows the subject.

Once you've figured out what you want to accomplish, it's time to start. Start with the basics. Get rid of any extra clutter. Remove appliances that aren't used often. Replace worn-out fixtures by newer versions

Next, look for areas in your kitchen that are tight. This can be as simple as looking for areas that are too small to store or have no countertops. These are the places you should maximize. Maybe you can turn them into pantries or wine cellars.

Make sure to think about lighting. Is there a particular spot that could use more light? Perhaps a wall sconce would help brighten up a dark corner.

After you have made your list of improvements it is time to start the fun part: implementing them.

You don't have to know everything right away. You can just keep going until you have it all figured. You will never be satisfied unless you love using it every day.

What countertops look best with white kitchen cabinetry?

If you have a white kitchen, you can make your countertop stand out. Quartz countertops are the latest trend in kitchen design. In terms of what colours of quartz countertops would go well with your white kitchens, our top suggestions are as follows:

Different shades available in concrete grey
Bold Granite patterns
Veiny marble-like designs
Bright and striking colors like ocean blue or sunflower yellow are examples of these bright colours

Can a stove/refrigerator and a refrigerator be side-by-side?

If there is enough room for both appliances, they can be placed side-by-side. It is not a good idea in kitchen design. It can create wasted space and make the kitchen cramped. It is better to put the stove/refrigerator in different places in the kitchen. This creates a more efficient workflow, and the kitchen feels larger.

What's a realistic budget for kitchen remodeling in Metro Vancouver

$50,000 is a realistic budget for a kitchen remodel in Metro Vancouver. This would cover new appliances, countertops, cabinets, flooring, and lighting.

What are the qualities of an ideal cooking environment?

A large kitchen should provide ample storage space for all your cooking and cleaning needs. A well-designed kitchen also has easy access to natural light and ventilation.
