Giving Your Kitchen a Facelift

You know that your kitchen may need a change, or a facelift, but the budget doesn’t allow for anything drastic. There are still ways to accomplish this and yet still have plenty of cash left in your pocket.

Getting new flooring or new cabinets would be wonderful, but can also be very expensive. Another option to enhance the functionality and aesthetics of your kitchen is by adding kitchen islands. These versatile pieces of furniture not only provide extra counter space for meal preparation but also offer storage solutions underneath. If you’re looking for more budget-friendly ways to refresh your kitchen, consider changing the look of your cabinets by painting or staining them. If you go this route, you will also want to buy new hardware. With so many different types of handles and knobs available, your cabinets and drawers can take on a bright new look without spending a fortune. If you’re looking for some industrial painters Essex, this is the best option for you. Also, consider checking out the best cladding sprayers available to achieve the finest finish.

Another way you can save is to leave your original floors. If your floors are too outdated and clash with the new look, there’s plenty of options that wont break the bank. While any flooring job will add significant cost to a project, if you’re smart about your choice it may not be as much as you think. New hardwoods or tile can be expensive, but these days, there are some quality laminate and even cork flooring options that can give a nice new look at a fraction of the cost. Additionally, consider seeking competitive quotes from reputable window manufacturers to find the best deals for your project.
