Remodeling Resources: Kitchen Remodeling

If there's one space in the home that's central to just about every occasion, it's the kitchen. It's the heart of the home where families gather to cook, eat, entertain, catch up, and even finish off homework.

If you've been dreaming about renovating your kitchen for some time, you probably already know that it's not exactly a cheap endeavor. Nor does your dream kitchen come to life overnight.

Long gone are the days of the outdated, stuffy kitchen that featured the classic wall hatch through which you could serve food and peep a ''hello'' to your guests while entertaining!

When it comes to updating the look of your kitchen, one popular option is cabinet refacing, which involves covering the existing cabinet frames and doors with new veneers, laminates, or wood, while keeping the original layout and structure of the cabinets in place.

Sometimes, your kitchen just needs a little somethin'-somethin', but it's not always easy to put your finger on what exactly that is. Maybe your cabinets need a refresh, your countertops need updating, or your kitchen hardware and appliances look old and tired.

For most homeowners considering a kitchen remodeling project, their primary, and sometimes only goal is to improve the look of their kitchen cabinets. And that's understandable. Your kitchen cabinets bring life, color, character, and incredible home value to your property.

The very first thing a person sees when they walk into your kitchen is your cabinetry. The style and colors you choose make and leave a lasting impression on the overall aesthetic of your kitchen. That's why it's so important to choose wisely.

In today's day and age, the cost of kitchen remodeling is a huge consideration when planning a project of this scope. For many homeowners, it's the most important consideration.

In 2022, a kitchen remodel remains one of the home improvements offering the best ROI. You could enjoy as much as 70% of your investment back when you sell your home with this improvement. If you're not selling your home any time soon, a new open-plan kitchen adds another kind of value.

If you have the budget for it, a chef's kitchen is the ultimate dream for foodies who love to experiment with new dishes and relish in entertaining/feeding others.
