Do and Don'ts For Kitchen Remodeling

Do and Don'ts For Kitchen Remodeling

Kitchen Planning DOs

• Hire a best contractor available in your area.
• Spend some time to properly plan out your kitchen
  with your designer, contractor and/or project
  manager (depending on who you decide to work
  with). Think about how the room will be used, who
  will be using it, how you want it to look and
  function, etc. Every change you make during the
  process will add time and cost you money so
  figure it out before you start.
• Consider ROI when planning the layout and
  choosing materials.

Kitchen Planning DONT 

• Ignore the importance of the kitchen triangle.
  Whenever possible (in moderately sized kitchens)
  the sink, stove and refrigerator should form a
  work triangle.
• Forget proper ventilation. Its important for
  getting rid of stale air, it helps extend the
  life of your appliances, and of course if you
  have a gas stove its an absolute must. Range
  hoods come in several styles and can work with
  any style of kitchen.
• Let cabinet or appliances doors interfere with
  one another or get in the way of traffic flow.
• Forget to add extra storage space anywhere you
  can. Extend cabinets all the way to the ceiling,
  use the space in a kitchen island, and maximize
  cabinets and drawer space any way possible.
  Youll always need more storage than you think.

Kitchen Layout DOs

• Flatten out the triangle in a small kitchen (such
  as a galley kitchen) so that it runs along one
  wall. If possible the sink should be positioned
  in the middle with the fridge on one side and the
  stove on the other.
• Place the dishwasher immediately adjacent to the
  sink.
• Plan for a spot to hold garbage and recycling
  bins so theyre easily accessible but hidden from
  sight.

  the sink,
• Forget proper ventilation. Its important for

  life of your appliances, and of course if you
  have a gas stove its an absolute must.
• let cabinet or appliances doors interfere with
  one another or get in the way of traffic flow.
• forget to add extra storage space anywhere you
  can. If your kitchen is small, consider
  installing extra-long upper cabinets with molding
  for extra storage space.
• Place lighting or greenery along the molding to
  draw the eyes up. Always install cabinets over
  the refrigerator not utilizing this area is a
  waste of storage space for large or seasonal
  kitchen items.

Design and Finishes Dos

• Consider how your countertops will be used and
  make a decision based on that not just style
  and looks.
• Install the proper lighting. Its not just about
  design, in a kitchen its also about safety. Work
  areas where people are handling sharp knives and
  hot objects must be well lit. Install dimmer
  switches so that you can always control how much
  light is dispersed.
• Stick with neutral colors for your cabinetry if
  you want a decent return on investment. Wild
  colors can be fun if theyre just for you, but
  they rarely get you your money back when it comes
  time to sell.

Design and Finishes Dont

• Opt for trendy finishes and fixtures. Trendy
  designs tend to have short lifespans and it could
  affect your ROI.
• Use too many different finishes. Dont go for
  more than two countertop materials in the same
  kitchen and dont mix more than two or three
  metal finishes. Its ok to have a bit of variety,
  but all the finishes should compliment each other
  and work together. You dont want it too look too
  busy.
