Kitchen remodeling projects are among the most expensive projects because of the amount of work and intricate detail required. Our goal is to provide you with the most up to date information so you can make the best decisions for your kitchen remodel. Today we’re going to go over 6 key factors to consider during the project. Let’s get started.

Organized Storage Options

The words organized and storage haven’t always gone hand-in-hand, especially in the kitchen. But we’ve found that most homeowners are much happier with their remodel when we include a way to organize all their stuff. Here are some of the best ways to organize your kitchen’s storage:

• Obviously, right? Cabinets are designed to hold large bulky items, but let’s also include some oversized cabinetry for your small appliances.
• The pantry is an amazing organizational tool. Implement baskets, sealed containers, and labels to further organize your pantry.
• Shelves add a good amount of decor to the room while providing a spot for your favorite cookbooks, mugs, or other dishes. These dishes could be purely for decorative purposes or for the items you use the most.

Countertop Materials

The countertop is one area that we recommend you splurge. Get that amazing granite or marble countertop if it’s within your budget. We can help you find the best deals on countertops in the Phoenix area.

Flooring Materials

Flooring options are nearly endless. Tile is a popular choice and so is hardwood. We don’t recommend soft wood like pine because it takes damage when cans, bottles, and other heavy items are dropped. And let’s face it, we all drop things occasionally.

Lighting Options

We can’t say it enough – task lighting. You need general lighting for ambient light, task lighting, showcase lighting, and maybe even some late-night lighting. Small strings of LED lights are an excellent way to add just enough light to prevent injury when you go for that midnight snack or drink.

Hardware and Faucets

These items are included in the finishing touches category because they have the ability to transform a drab kitchen into something pretty spectacular. Choose finishing touches that add value, whether visual appeal, added functionality, or monetary value, to your kitchen. This should be one of your splurge areas.

Appliances

Today’s appliance options can get pretty extensive – and expensive. You can go as basic or as high tech as you want. Do you need a basic refrigerator or something amazing that helps you track your groceries? Do you need a basic slow cooker or oven or one that allows you to connect via smartphone? Smart appliances add a lot of functionality to your kitchen, so pick and choose carefully.
