After spending over a year getting to know the insides of our homes better, are you asking if it’s time to do a kitchen remodel? Maybe you’ve been thinking about getting started but are unsure of where to begin or you’re worried about the cost. On average, a homeowner budgets around $10,000.00 on home remodels and renovations. If you want to make a change in your kitchen but don’t have the funds just yet, here are 7 easy ways you can scratch your kitchen remodeling itch without breaking the bank.
Many homeowners might think that adding a new backsplash is a painful and time-intensive project, but updating your kitchen backsplash can be as easy as opening a can of paint! You may find the perfect tile that matches the marble countertop of your dreams down the road, or you might consider painting on a design that you will love for years to come.
Speaking of the marble countertop of your dreams - why not make your kitchen remodeling priority a new countertop for your space? Granite countertops, quartz countertops, and marble countertops are all beautiful options that make wonderful investments for any home. Boston marble and granite countertop fabricators are ready to help you find the best countertop for your personality.
Is the old linoleum peeling in your kitchen? How long have you been walking over that old spot on the floor without knowing what to do about it? Updating your kitchen floors like the one big-ticket remodeling item for your kitchen might not seem like an obvious design choice, but swapping out your old floor for a new wood or tile can breathe life into any kitchen.
Sometimes, all a kitchen needs is a fresh coat of paint. Whether your tastes trend more towards classic styles or a retro feel, painting the walls, cabinets, or even the floor, can give your house a brand new look and feel with a weekend’s worth of work. Doing the painting yourself will also save you money so that you can splurge a little on a new marble countertop or a top-of-the-line fridge.
You don’t have to replace every appliance in your kitchen when working on a remodel but if there are one or two appliances that are on their last legs, a remodel is the perfect time to put the old on the curb and install the new! Finding a new appliance that you really like could even inspire a cohesive look and feel down the road.
A dimly lit kitchen doesn’t exactly spark warm feelings of family togetherness and good meals shared. If you notice that your kitchen is severely lacking in light, consider installing some track lighting or a few LED lights under your cabinets to keep those shiny appliances and countertops looking fabulous.
If you’re scraping the absolute bottom of the kitchen remodeling budget and you don’t know where else to turn, think about adding pops of color throughout your kitchen to give it new life. Look carefully at the colors on your marble countertop or quartz work surface. Accent colors are a great way to bring out the personality of your kitchen without going broke.
