Is It Worth it to Upgrade Your Kitchen?

You can probably guess my answer, but let me tell you: it’s absolutely worth it! It doesn’t matter whether you are looking to make a few small changes or completely remodel your kitchen. The benefits of upgrading your kitchen are numerous and well worth the cost.

Stay tuned this week for some great how-to kitchen remodelling tips, watch for the signs that your large or small kitchen might need an update, and join me as I look back on some of my favourite kitchen painting projects.

That’s all coming up!

Right Now, Here are Our Top 5 Kitchen Remodelling Benefits:

1. Functionality and Safety

Things get worn down. Appliances get old. Cabinets get damaged. Paint peels. Tiles crack. You need a kitchen that works for you and is ultimately not going to fall apart. Whether it’s changing the layout or repairing kitchen cabinets, some simple upgrades can make a huge difference to the functionality of your kitchen (and if your kitchen painting job is guaranteed for two years, it will stay that way!)

2. Go Green

  •  Easy changes like energy-efficient windows or appliances are not only good for the environment but will keep your utility bill way down.
  •  Choosing paint colours to make the most of light and space can cut down the electricity bill.
  •  Use low-VOC or zero-VOC paint for the least amount of environmental impact.

3. Increase Resale Value with a Kitchen Renovation

If you ever watch home reno shows like Holmes on Homes (one of our partners), then you know that the sticking point for a lot of potential buyers is if the kitchen is renovated. Even if you’re not looking to sell your house anytime soon, raising the value of your property is never a bad idea and this way you get to enjoy the results of your hard work.

4. The Timing is Right

I know, the “with the way the Toronto economy is these days…” But it’s true, contractors are looking for jobs both big and small right now. Gone are the days of waiting twelve to sixteen months. You can get a professional and cost-effective kitchen painting contractor immediately.

5. Spice It Up!

And I don’t mean with the cooking. As many functional and logical reasons as there may be for renovating your kitchen. Hre’s the BIG reason for a kitchen painting remodel: you want a change. It’s as simple as that. People get stuck. And everyone deserves a change of pace now and then!

Kitchen Renovation Ideas

There are so many great resources out there if you want ideas for your own remodel or renovation project. You’re probably wondering how much does it cost to remodel a kitchen? The answer is: it depends. It depends on a number of factors, including the scope of your project (e.g., are you just doing some painting or do you want to remodel the entire kitchen?), materials used, labour costs, and whether or not you hire professionals or do it yourself.

The good news is that a kitchen remodel doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg. If you’re on a budget, here are some tips to help you save money on your kitchen remodel:

1. Kitchen Layout

Sometimes the best way to renovate your kitchen is by changing the layout. Use the space that you have. If you don’t have a lot of room to work with, consider adding a breakfast bar or nook that can serve as an extra eating space and storage area. You may be able to add an island or peninsula that will increase your counter space, plus it’s a great place for you and your family to gather around while cooking together. Consider removing walls between rooms in order to open them up and create more of an open concept feel.

2. Re-paint Your Walls

You can change the look of your kitchen by simply repainting it. Try different shades of blue or yellow, adding some green for a refreshing pop of colour. Or maybe you want to go with something neutral like white or cream! Whatever colour you choose, just make sure that it’s not too dark or light in a tone so that it doesn’t clash with all of your other appliances and fixtures.

3. Re-do Your Cabinets

If you’re looking for a quick and easy way to revamp your kitchen, try re-doing the cabinets. You can paint them or give them a new coat of varnish. If you want to change the look, even more, try adding some beadboard panels or even replacing them altogether with stained glass doors!

4. Replace Your Flooring

The floor is the biggest thing that people don’t think about when they’re updating their kitchen. But it can make all of the difference in creating a space that has a modern feel and looks! Try something new like laminate, hardwood, or tile floors.

5. Add Lighting

Lighting can make or break a kitchen, so don’t forget to add some to yours! You can do this by adding light fixtures above your cabinets or even replacing the ones you already have with track lighting. This will give off a more modern feel and make it easier for you to cook at night.
