The Smart Way to Approach a Kitchen Remodel



Homeowners spend more on kitchen renovation projects than any other home improvement. Upgrading your kitchen is rarely a bad decision because a large percentage of your initial costs can easily be recouped from the value added to your home.

Maximizing the value of your kitchen remodel is all about approaching the project smartly. According to the Remodeling Impact Report by the National Association of Realtors®, on average, homeowners can recover more than 60% of their initial investment from a kitchen remodel. To achieve this, simply follow these tips from DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Southern Lakes.

Always Start With a Plan

A good plan begins with finding the right professional kitchen remodelers. Finding a contractor that you can trust and who will help you from start to finish is essential. Planning begins the moment you decide to remodel your kitchen. Our experts recommend gathering ideas and inspiration six months before the project is slated to take place.

Start by knowing what you have to work with. This means studying your existing kitchen and the space you have. This can put certain limitations on the features you add to your remodel. For example, it might not make sense to get a large refrigerator if your kitchen has a small floor area. However, these limits are not set in stone and a professional remodeler can often help you find ways to work around these challenges.

Don’t Change the Plumbing

You can save a lot of money by keeping the same plumbing footprint when remodeling a kitchen. It’s easy to get carried away when you’re planning out where certain features will go and which appliances you want, but moving the pipes around will increase your overall costs and make your remodel take longer. 

Lighting Is Powerful

The right amount of lighting can make a small kitchen appear larger than it actually is. It can also affect how cluttered a certain area looks or how clean the space appears. That’s why it’s important to choose your lighting fixtures carefully. Consult with your designer on how to plan for lighting to make the most out of your kitchen remodel.
