Kitchen remodeling requires a lot of planning. You have to determine what your budget is, what can stay, and what needs to be changed. Once the kitchen remodeling project is completed, it is all well worth it. Your kitchen gets a new look and the value of your home is also increased.
Following are 4 remodeling suggestions to give your kitchen a new look without spending too much money:
1. Cabinet Refinishing
Cabinetry is one of the first things most homeowners desire to change during their kitchen remodeling project. But you don’t necessarily have to replace your cabinets in order to give your kitchen a new look. All you may really need is cabinet refinishing. The costs of replacing cabinets are pretty high as compared to refinishing them. That’s why it is recommended that you refinish your kitchen cabinets.
You can refinish your cabinets for just a few hundred dollars if you are willing to spend a little time on the project and you have do-it-yourself skills. Even if you hire the services of professionals for your cabinet refinishing project, it will still cost you a lot less as compared to the cost of replacing the cabinets.
2. Faux Granite or Stone Countertops
Countertops are another part of the kitchen that is considered expensive. But it doesn’t have to be. Faux granite or stone countertops, for example, offer the same look at a fraction of the price. So rather than having a professional come in and install real granite or stone, they could install this less costly alternative. In this way, both you and your remodeling contractor will be happy. That’s because you won’t have to worry about how much it will cost you and the remodeling contractor won’t have to skimp on other project areas because of the depleting budget.
3. Laminate Flooring
Flooring is an important part of a kitchen remodeling project. If you don’t want to spend too much on flooring, then you will be glad to know that there is a great cheaper flooring alternative available. Most homeowners choose ceramic tile for flooring. It is no surprise that they choose this type of floor when it comes to their cooking space. However, if your budget is tight, you can opt for laminate flooring. Although laminate flooring is not as authentic as the actual ceramic tile flooring, it offers the same high-class style and look.
4. Backsplash
If you want to give your kitchen a nice new color and shine, then a new backsplash is a great idea. Nowadays, most backsplashes are made using mosaic tiles. Installing them is very easy and you also don’t need to paint them because they come in wide range of colors. You can choose from a variety of sizes, colors, and shapes to create unique mosaic kitchen backsplash ideas. Usually, it takes a day or two to apply the mosaics, then you have to let them dry. Your kitchen will look beautiful once it is finished.
