The number one renovation request we receive is for an Atlanta kitchen renovation. That’s not a surprise considering the amount of time that people tend to spend in their kitchen. At least three times a day your kitchen is put to use preparing meals. But it goes beyond that, as kitchens have become a gathering place for family and friends as well.
Doing an Atlanta kitchen renovation can have a significant impact on how you feel about your home, and it can really make the work of cooking and cleaning up a little more bearable.
Atlanta Kitchen Renovation Ideas
Update Kitchen Appliances
Appliances have really taken huge steps in terms of use and efficiency over the last 10 years. New energy star rated appliances are better for the environment and can save you money over the long term. They can also make your prep and clean up easier. Some new appliances to consider include a refrigerator, oven, stove top, microwave and of course the dishwasher.
Reconfigure Kitchen Workspace
Most of todays kitchens needing to be reconfigured were built when not as much thought went into how you would use your kitchen. Limited counter space can make cooking more of a chore than it has to be. In addition we often see layouts that are not conducive to cooking and cleaning. One of the best items you can add to your kitchen is an island that will give you extra room for food prep and even a place to eat simple meals like breakfast and lunch.
Increase Storage Space
Over time we tend to collect dishes, glasses, new cooking devices and more. Having the storage place to keep items off of your countertops immediately increases work space. New pot racks, spice racks, and recycling space will improve your kitchen’s usefulness.
Improve Your Lighting
Nothing is worse than cooking or entertaining in your kitchen without adequate lighting. Replacing that single light fixture with a set of can lights can really light up your kitchen. Using appropriate accent lighting and under cabinet lights can further improve the warmth and functionality of your kitchen.
Update Your Fixtures
Like everything else in your kitchen, fixtures can become worn out and out-dated. Replacing your faucet with a more modern one can improve the styling of your kitchen. Add a filtered water faucet for drinking water. Finally consider replacing your sink. If you have a single sink consider a double sided sink.
Add Windows
If your kitchen lacks natural lighting, consider how you might add a window or two to the space. If you already have windows you might think about updating the window to a newer, better insulated replacement.
These are only a few of the changes you can make to update you kitchen. In addition you can change the color of your appliances, replace your flooring, replace countertops, and replace or refinish cabinets. There is a lot to think about, so working with a contractor that provides a design service can make things much simpler.
