A kitchen renovation can be an intensive and lengthy process, especially if you plan to remodel the entire kitchen. It’s best to work with an experienced kitchen remodeling company that has its own designers on staff, along with a substantial portfolio of successfully completed projects. These experienced professionals can help you navigate the process from start to finish.
Design Consultation
The first step is to meet with the kitchen renovation designers to discuss your vision for your new kitchen. Expect to talk about the styles you like and what dissatisfies you about your current kitchen. For example, perhaps you’d like to have more storage space or maybe you’d like to upgrade your island. Your new kitchen should be as functional as it is beautiful. If you’re having trouble deciding on the look you want, it can be helpful to flip through the designers’ portfolio of completed projects for inspiration.
Pre-Renovation Planning
Once you’ve made all the decisions about how your new kitchen will look, the renovation team will get to work planning the renovation. This involves taking precise measurements of the space, ordering the necessary components (or having custom cabinetry made), and obtaining building permits if you plan to put in an addition.
Rough Construction
This phase of the renovation process involves the demolition of the old kitchen and haul-away of the debris. The team will also build the structural features and frame the room. It may also involve moving the necessary utilities if you plan to move appliances such as the stove to a different location. The team will rough-in the plumbing, mechanical, and electrical components before installing the dry wall and flooring.
Finish Construction
The “finish construction” phase involves installing the new kitchen cabinetry, countertops, lighting fixtures, and similar items. The team will ensure that every detail is impeccable—from the cabinet hardware to the backsplash. At the end, you’ll get to enjoy your beautiful new kitchen!
