The new year means new beginnings for many people, including new projects and renovations for their home.  One big request we see is to help homeowners remodel their kitchen area.  Here are 3 tips that you can use when planning to remodel your kitchen this year:

1. Use Contrast Colors on Cabinets

Breathe new life into your kitchen by:

• Using contrast colors or stain on cabinets located on island or hood cabinet​
• Contrast upper and base cabinets to create a subtle focal point and unique look all your own

There are endless possible choices a designer can help you put together for a stand out kitchen remodel.

2.  Create an Accent Tile Backsplash

Instead of an accent tile in your backsplash above the cook top.  Work with one of our pros to choose a unique glass that will accentuate your countertop and have it installed.

Extend tile all the way to the ceiling on all high backsplash walls to give appearance of height and create a stunning focal point.  This can be an especially great tip if you can’t remodel the whole kitchen and you happen to have great cabinets and countertops but want a fresh updated look.

3. Be Mindful of Your Appliance and Counter Space

The most important thing to consider; whether working with a professional or doing it yourself, is to be sure to make notes and pay attention to how you use appliances, faucets, countertop space, etc.  That way when you remodel, the end result not only appears to be the kitchen of your dreams but it also functions like your kitchen never has before.

*BONUS TIP:

A good designer will come equipped with questions to help steer the project in the best directions for your preference in taste and meet all your functional needs. That is the best of both worlds when remodeling and it is what you deserve for your project!​
