How to avoid popular kitchen renovation mistakes?
- Select your appliances beforehand. Take factors like appliance size, style, and design into consideration. This is especially important for built-in kitchen appliances. So, if you are reusing old appliances or getting a new one, make sure that your kitchen design has enough space to accommodate them.
- If possible, get a bigger window in your kitchen.
- Add more lights to your kitchen. Getting sufficient lighting sources and layering them is crucial.
- Always install good quality hardware and cabinet boxes. Opt for budget-friendly kitchen renovations or gradually make small updates and save up for big renovations.
- Take pictures of the before and after.
- Treat your installers well. Every design will be manifested into reality by installers and if they enjoy working in your space, they will be motivated to do a good job.
- Ditch knobs and install handles. The most common types of handles available are 96 mm wide from centre to centre. Picking this type will ensure you get a wider selection range in the future when you want to change them.
- Having an outdated kitchen design after renovation will leave you feeling unsatisfied. So, do thorough research on what is trendy and stylish to get the best results.
