Renovation Tips For Kitchen Cabinet Remodeling

Among lots of my home renovation tips, I will talk more about my kitchen. In my opinion, kitchen is the most important place in the house, and kitchen remodeling is the most important part during the whole course of home construction. I need to adjust the kitchen to meet the needs of our family, including one who uses a walker / wheelchair.

You see, all that smoke & nicotine in the house permeated the cabinets. So we need to demolish the kitchen, remove the existing cabinets, and likely do some rewiring and re-plumbing as the placement of the sink and dishwasher had to be changed to accommodate our needs.

Oh, remember, most of entertaining these days actually includes the kitchen and in most homes the kitchen & eating area is the focal point, so take the time to get it right and to find the right designer and installer.

We signed our contract on June 23, 2007, right at the height of the kitchen construction and installation busy period. Our kitchen installation began on September 24, 2007. The initial installation effort took only a few days, because we had already gutted the kitchen and put everything else (re-wiring, plumbing, flooring, etc. ) in place.

So, the manufacturer and installer lead time was a full 3 months. It took us about 2 months from start of our kitchen researching, planning, etc.

Useful tip for kitchen remodeling:

 Do not under estimate the length of time to select a kitchen designer, finalize the details of the new kitchen (it will take several design sessions looking at alternatives), or the manufacturer and installer lead time. However, if you do it right (the right design, the right designer, the right materials & colours, the right installer), it will be worth it in the end.
