How to start a kitchen or bath remodel

Want to update your existing kitchen or bath space? Confused on where to begin? Let's start with the basics. Make a list of the things you love about the space and the things that you hate about the space.

HATE:                                                                                   
counter tops                                                                              
not enough drawer space                                                           
outdated colors                                                                         
cabinet door and drawer hardware
backsplash

LOVE:

cabinet color
hardwood floors
appliances


Let's start with this scenerio
1. Establish a budget that you can spend.
2. In this budget, identify what type of new counter tops, backsplash and hardware that you can afford.
3. Decide on the new color theme that you want.
4. Build upon this new theme and then go shopping!
5. There are many ways to add rollout drawers behind the base cabinet doors and add drawer accessories to utilize the space more effectively.

With new counter tops, you will want to get a new sink and faucet. Did you know that the sink is the MOST used appliance in your home??????? Pick one that lasts, is functional and works for how will you use it!!!

In your budget, remember that you will need a plumber to rehook up the sink, disposal and faucet. You may need an electrician if you add under cabinet lights or change the ceiling fixtures.

It really is easy to update a space. Whether or not you do a complete remodel  or just change a few elements.
