Things to consider when remodeling your kitchen
- What don't you like about your current kitchen?
- Create a "wish list" for your new kitchen and then number the items in order of importance.
- What items (ie: cabinetry, flooring) do you want to put the most money into?
- If necessary, what items are you willing to save money on?
- How much can you realistically afford to spend? Setting a budget before hand will make the process easier for you and could save you money in the end.
- Not sure exactly what style you want? Start saving pictures from magazines to start honing in on your design style.
- Is the kitchen the beginning point for remodeling other rooms in your home?
- Are there time constraints for the work? If the project absolutely has to be finished by a certain date, please let us know first thing so that we may help you in meeting the deadline.
- What qualities are you looking for in your kitchen designer?
- Are you working with an interior designer as well?
- If you plan on making big changes to your kitchen, what functions or activities do you want to plan for in this space? (ie: adding a fireplace, desk area or adding a table instead of the current breakfast bar)
- How will your family change over the next few years? Will you become "empty nesters" or new parents?
- Do you plan on doing any of the work yourself?
- Do you do a lot of entertaining? If you do, it's true...everyone does always flock to the kitchen!
- Are there major structural changes to consider, such a moving a wall or window?
