Your guide to kitchen remodeling: Quick tips

A kitchen remodeling doesn’t always need to be an extensive to-to-bottom event. Instead, something simple like a new floor or cabinets often gives it a fresh look. Below we have a few tips for your kitchen remodeling project. 

First, decide your end goal

If you are planning to sell, it's often recommended only to spend as much as you hope to make back. New owners will probably remodel according to their style.

Just be sure it’s presentable.

If you plan to stay–go for it!

Know your budget

You can remodel for as little as a few thousand or as much as $100K and above. Kitchen cabinets take up about 25-30% of the budget.

Cabinets come in three categories: stock, semi-stock, and custom. In addition, there's a wide assortment of styles from shaker to beaded, flat door, corner, glass front, etc.

Popular cabinet colors

White will probably never go out of style. But, right now, earthy neutrals; wood tones; black; navy blue, and deep green hues are big.

A hot design trend

This is the two-toned cabinet. This refers to having two different colors on the upper and lower cabinets. Typically you’d want a lighter color for the top and a neutral or deeper hue for the bottom.

Choosing your kitchen countertops

While kitchen cabinets are generally considered the room's star, counters are strong supporting players.

They can be focal points or neutral backgrounds. Kitchen countertops also come in a range of materials.

Some include natural stones like quartz, granite, marble, soapstone, etc. Following is tile, solid surfacing, laminate, wooden butcher block, stainless steel, or concrete.
