Kitchen Remodeling, Hickory, NC

Kitchen remodeling is one of the most popular choices for a home remodeling project due to the combination of style and function.

A kitchen that functions well can save you time and effort everyday. Plus there’s no denying, well designed kitchens can be truely beautiful rooms.

Kitchens are used for a wide variety of activities beyond cooking and eating. Kids tackle their homework, friends share a cup of coffee, families sit around the breakfast bar discussing just about anything. It’s important to consider all of these activities when planning your kitchen remodel.

Planning a Kitchen Remodel

Sometimes you buy a house with the intention of remodeling, but more often you just become increasingly dissatisfied with the kitchen you have. The desire to remodel grows slowly and one day you decide it’s time. Now what?

Kitchen Remodeling Budget

One of the first things you need to do is determine a remodeling budget you can live with. According to the National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA), 10-20 percent of your home’s value is average for a kitchen remodel. If you have very specific needs or wants, you may need to go a little higher, but determining your priorities will help you decide.

Kitchen Remodeling Goals

Making a list of your priorities is another step that needs to be completed early in the process. Convenience, function, and low maintenance are often at the top of this list, but there are a number of other items to consider. Do you like to entertain or stay involved in family activities? If so you may want to consider knocking down walls to create an open concept kitchen. Do you normally have multiple people cooking together or would you prefer a kitchen designed for the one master chef in the family? The relationship between the prep area, the cooking area and the sink (cleaning area) are key in how well your kitchen functions.

There will be items you could live without but would really prefer to include them. Make a list of these as well. When you discuss your project with your kitchen designer, they need to know the must-haves and the like-to-haves and understand how you have them prioritized.
