Kitchen Renovation Guidelines

Renovating a kitchen can be a truly exciting time, but it can also be stressful unless you follow a few key guidelines.
Before-and-after-kitchenThere are some major personal and financial benefits to remodeling the kitchen and while it can be a daunting task it has endless rewards.

Remodeling increases the value of your home.

We all know that kitchens and bathrooms sell houses, so spending money on a kitchen renovation enhances your home as an asset. If you intend to sell, remodeling also has appeal to more buyers. When people go into a home they will automatically check out the kitchen. It’s one of the central places to a home, so it’s an important room to put your money towards.

Deck out the kitchen with new appliances.

This is the fun part. Put choosing all new appliances at the top of your list of priorities so you can rediscover your love of cooking and how amazing it can be in your new kitchen.

Make it your own

Having your own unique style echoed into your renovations will truly make a home yours.

How to style your kitchen on a budget

Plan your budget – Various factors can impact this decision. Obviously your approach and budget will be different depending on whether it’s a rental home, your own home or if you intend to sell it. Sticking to a well-thought-out budget is important to make it beneficial. Keeping within that budget as the renovations continue is essential.

Can you DIY? – It’s easy to save money if you know how to use a drill. Easy things to get started on are removal of unwanted flooring or cabinets and painting. It can be a little daunting if you’re a DIY novice, but you can save a lot of money along the way if you are able to pitch in.
Planning, planning and more planning – When you’re on a budget it’s not wise to forego a well-thought-out plan, so keeping with your theme is important. Do you want to entertain or have a minimal setup? Is it important to have everything practical and easily accessible? Also consider keeping the basic layout as it is. This will save a tonne of money on costly things like moving plumbing around.

Shop around – One big error in doing a kitchen reno on a budget is not shopping around for the best products at the best prices. It’s easy to get caught up and trapped into an idea and not bothering to look at all your options. Some places like Renovator Auctions give you the ability to get pieces at a heavily discounted price. If you save big on items at auction you can then put the money towards getting the best result from your renovation. Why waste money when you can get the same products but at excellent prices?
Get the best people for the job – Kitchen renovation can be hard enough without having the right people who will ensure you get the best work for your dollar. Asking around for recommendations as well as calling up references is so important and is often overlooked.

Renovator Auctions in Sydney has a reputation for getting people the best prices for home renovations. They easily have one of the country’s largest selections of new, high-quality building supplies and products for home improvement projects.

By shopping around for your own supplies in this way it will seriously cut the cost of your renovating. Why spend money on off-the-shelf products that are full price when you can get huge bargains and save on your home projects?[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
