How To Save Money On A Kitchen Remodel

kitchen_7.333162450_largeIf you’re frustrated with your outdated kitchen and are in serious need of a kitchen remodel, you don’t have to spend an arm and a leg to get the upgrade you’re looking for. Large kitchen renovations can be pricy, but there are a few budget friendly ways that you can get the look you want without the large price tag.

 

Having your cabinets painted or resurfaced will give your kitchen the facelift it needs. You can brighten up and enlarge the look of the space by choosing a lighter color or give it some character with a pop of color.  You can also change style of your kitchen from traditional to modern, or rustic to country cottage, by simply changing the color or finish of the cabinets. This can be tricky, though, depending on the material of your cabinets, so make sure to hire a cabinet resurface professional.

 

Another low-cost kitchen update is installing a new backsplash. The amount of area that needs to be covered is minimal compared to countertops or floors, so you can opt for a nicer material that will stand out and give a high-end look. Provide contrast between the backsplash and other kitchen facades, but also make sure it flows well and is cohesive with the new design you are working towards.

 

Finally, no kitchen renovation is complete without a few new accessories. Modernizing outdated lighting fixtures and appliances will make a big difference. And changing out hardware and adding new small appliances or dish towels that go with your theme will help complete the look.

 

As you are making plans, it’s a good idea to talk to a professional kitchen designer or contractor who will be able to guide you through the right materials and help prevent costly mistakes. Some updates may seem easy, but can become a hassle and dangerous if done incorrectly. A kitchen remodel can be a great way to liven up a tired room, and it doesn’t have to break the bank.
