This past weekend, our own chief cabinet officer, Evan Levey, held a seminar to discuss creative ways to save 10% when renovating the kitchen. Kitchens can be costly and after setting a budget, the homeowner may get an estimate that’s more than expected. That’s why it is good to meet with a designer who can help give you ideas to lower your cost. Check out these recommendations that can help save you money when designing your dream kitchen.
- Cut down on built-in accessories you don’t need
- Keep the details where they show the most
- Use glass doors but don’t divide them with mullions
- Consider one big cabinet rather than two small ones
- Swap the tall chef’s pantry for one with simple interior pull-out drawers
- Nix the appliance garage
- Pick a free-standing range rather than a separate cooktop and wall oven
- Consider larger mouldings rather than smaller stacked ones
- Ask the kitchen designer questions
- Research what you like
