Planning Kitchen Remodelling Ideas

Do you feel that your kitchen is in need of a serious revamp? Well, this short guide will help you on the way to planning out a full remodel of your kitchen.

Firstly, you should spend time thinking about what appliances need to be replaced. For instance, you may want to purchase a brand new range cooker, microwave, fridge or boiler. In this case, you should strongly consider having smart appliances installed.

With a smart system, you can centralise control of your home’s appliances such as through an app/device(s).

As for fittings, you may want to have new worktops added. Popular worktop materials include quartz, granite, ceramic, laminate, wood and corian.

It might also interest you to have a kitchen island installed. This can act as a standout feature of your kitchen. Kitchen island types include cabinet, rolling and double-tiered islands.

Replacing kitchen cupboard doors can also revitalise the look and feel of your kitchen, especially if your current ones are worn down and developing issues, whether visually or functionally.

You might also like to replace the TV, table or chairs. Rearranging things in your kitchen can also help.

As for back doors that lead into the garden, sliding doors, French doors and external bi-fold doors are some great options that not only provide added aesthetics but can even increase the value of your home!

How about adding new flooring? Some of the most popular floor types for a kitchen are laminate, hardwood, vinyl, bamboo, ceramic tile and stone tile. While costly and a little time consuming, a new floor can really give a kitchen a new lease of life!

If you’re changing the floor, you should also think about the walls and ceiling. On the one hand, you could have new coats of paint added, whether of the same colour or a new one. Light colours including blue, green red, yellow, white, ivory and grey are particularly popular choices.

Alternatively, you might wish to have new wallpaper added. Either way, it’s best practice to have your ceiling repainted. Otherwise, with the rest of your room freshened up, having your ceiling left behind will leave it as a standout feature but not in a good way!

Regardless of the remodel work you want for your kitchen, you should set aside sufficient time to think through the changes you want and to consider how those changes might complement one another.
