A kitchen remodeling project can inspire your imagination, so it's important to clarify exactly what you want - and need. Some people only need new kitchen cabinets; others need a new kitchen island or new appliances. And of course, some people want, and need, everything: lighting, appliances, backsplash, wall receptacles, floors, and even windows. Any kitchen remodeling project, small or large, will require a significant investment of time - from one week to one month. Taking a few simple steps to prepare yourself and your family will ensure a pleasant and stress-free remodeling experience.
Kitchen remodeling is stressful. There's no way around it: dealing with sawdust, noise, and the inconvenience of not having a finished kitchen can be aggravating. But remember: the stress and aggravation is only temporary!
Begin by telling your family about the remodeling project. Prepare yourself, and your family, by listing the details: the project's daily work hours, the expected inconveniences, and the anticipated completion date. If the project's crew is new to your home, let your family meet each project team member before the renovation begins. Also, clearly state when the kitchen is off-limits. And remember: set aside some money for restaurant meals and take-out food.
The results of the remodeling process are not always apparent. At certain points, you will see dramatic improvements. On many days, though, it might appear that nothing has happened at all. This is normal, and you should prepare yourself for this inevitable challenge. Brief trips away from home, and your remodeling project, can be helpful. Take a weekend vacation!
The kitchen remodeling process starts with an interior design specialist. You can find an interior designer in the Yellow Book, but be careful: the average cost for an interior design visit can range from $130-$170. Another option is to call a local remodeling company like Enterprise Home Remodeling - we can provide a FREE interior design specialist.
After your interior designer creates the most efficient design and layout, you will have to find a contractor to manage your kitchen remodeling project. We suggest hiring an interior designer and contractor from the same company. Then if you have a problem or question, only one phone call should prove sufficient. A home remodeling company is a one-stop shop for all your home remodeling needs. See the links below to browse our own services.

Don't let the word "demolition" scare you; this is simply the expression builders use to describe the removal of old cabinets, countertops, laminate from your floor, and anything else that has to be removed before replacement.
Sometimes, even if you did not install new kitchen cabinets, but performed different layout of your kitchen, you gain a lot more working space and these minor changes will make you really enjoy spending time at your new kitchen.
