Perfect lighting in your Kitchen- There should be sufficient lighting over the island, sink, table and other important corners. It would be better if you put those energy saving fluorescent lights. They give enough illumination without being heavy on your pocket.
It is important to install fans over your cooking range. Because if you don’t have such a fan, the soot and grime will eat away the illumination which you might have so carefully provided.
Cabinet doors are versatile as you can either give them a new lick of paint or sand them down and coat them with wood stain. If your cabinet doors are not custom made, you can easily replace them with new standard sized cabinet doors and reusing all the cabinet units. Kitchen cabinet door knobs or handles can also be replaced with new ones.
As for the counter-tops, they can be removed with special tools. If the top is made of wood laminate, take it off, sand the surfaces smooth and clean, glue new wood laminate onto the new surface. You can use a utility knife and a router to bevel the edges. If you prefer, there are other inexpensive materials that you can use to replace your counter-top such as marble, granite slaps, aluminum or tiles. They are not only hard-wearing surfaces that last for a long time but also add a different look and feel to the kitchen.
Kitchen flooring can be replaced with patterned or plain vinyl, hardwood, laminate wood or tiles. It is quite rare nowadays to find carpet flooring in the kitchen as it is deemed unhygienic and unsuitable.
You may also change the wall coloring in the kitchen to get either that sophisticated professional look or that warm and homely ambience.
There are so many affordable new designs of furniture available in the market which not only save space but also add a dash of color and freshness to your kitchen.
These are the main areas of the kitchen that give the most visual impact once they are renewed and cleaned. Inexpensive improvements can also be made through repairing wobbly window handles and sealing the window sills in areas where water has infiltrated.
You do not need to update your kitchen all in one go, when it is convenient and affordable for you, do them in stages. Your efforts will pay off in the long run as remodeling your kitchen will definitely add value to your home.
