6 Common Kitchen Problems Solutions



When it comes to a small kitchen, there are a number of issues that can be particularly hard to address. If a kitchen remodel is in your future plans, you might want to consider a few potential solutions, such as changing your kitchen layout, opening up or removing walls, installing new flooring, replacing kitchen cabinets or upgrading lighting and electrical. To get the best results, hiring a professional is almost always necessary. 

But how do you know where to put your time and energy? Which upgrades to your kitchen will you most enjoy? Which kitchen projects are most likely to improve efficiency? Take a look at six of the most frequent kitchen issues and some remodeling solutions.

Common Challenges

1. An Outdated Kitchen

Most individuals prefer a modern kitchen in their home. Even in classic or vintage homes, homeowners want new fixtures, appliances and design concepts. Worn-out cabinets and dated fixtures and finishes can all detract from the pleasure of cooking. They can also reduce the home’s value. Some of the best kitchen renovations include new fixtures and finishes to update a kitchen’s look.

2. Lack of Counter Space

Kitchen design is about functionality and workflow, not just looks. Counter space is essential in any kitchen for cooking, cleaning, organization and task completion. In addition to enlarging existing counters, professional kitchen renovators can add a kitchen island for extra storage and utility. 

3. Old Floors

Kitchen floors endure a huge amount of abuse over time. Renovating your kitchen floors will not only improve aesthetic value, they also make it a safer and more comfortable place to work.

4. Electrical Hazards

Kitchen renovation often includes a lot of electrical work. If you are not working with a remodeler, hire an electrical contractor to handle all of these upgrades. They will inspect your kitchen’s electrical system, including light fixtures, to ensure that it is safe and integrated properly with the rest of your electrical system.

5. Lack of Storage

Many homeowners complain about a lack of storage space in their kitchens. Your kitchen experience improves when you increase its capacity to store key belongings in an organized way. Professional kitchen storage solutions are among the most satisfying and practical home improvements.

6. Poor Ventilation

Since kitchens produce a lot of moisture and odors, ensure the space is well-ventilated. Include an exhaust fan with high suction power within the kitchen. Clean the vent regularly and replace air filters periodically. Bring an HVAC specialist in to check all your ventilation, making sure it is properly sealed and insulated.
