This is, again, from Houzz.com.
I have been learning so much from Houzz.com on many types of remodeling projects. Can’t wait to actually start my own remodeling! Of course I won’t have enough return on a $70,000 kitchen remodeling (until I buy a multi-million villa, huh?) but I think it is reasonable to paint the cabinets and change the faucet and sink, as well as backsplash, right?
Uh-oh.. there we go. Me setting crazy plans again.. Why don’t we take some time to review how to plan and execute a kitchen remodeling this time, and I will consolidate a few good blog posts about DIY refinish kitchen cabinets and backsplash next time? Ohhh, and counter top material as well 🙂
Work-Book to Kitchen Remodeling
Often time, when I visit an open house or house show, the first thing I would love to change is the kitchen (followed by the bathroom, of course). I know it could be very costly when it comes to kitchen remodeling due to the functionality design, as well as plumbing, electric, and appliances. But when do you start? Here is an awesome blog post:
Some kitchen remodel considerations:
- Are you remodeling your kitchen within the existing footprint?
- Do you want to relocate the sink or range, which would mean moving the plumbing or gas lines?
- Are you planning on opening up to another room and you aren’t sure if you have a load-bearing wall? This might require structural work and unforeseen costs.
- With new construction, you might have already heard prices referred to as the cost per square foot, but this formula rarely works with remodeling. Every home has unique conditions due to age, construction type (masonry versus frame, for example) and layout.
- Detailed pricing information up front will help you meet your budget. Where to start? Here are a few suggestions.
Budget, plan, find a good pro and work with them – there are much to learn!
