Signs That It’s Time For A Custom Kitchen Renovation
Does your kitchen show obvious signs of wear and tear? Has its look or functionality begun to fade? Or has a change in your circumstances altered the way you use your home? If so, it might well be time for a kitchen redesign.
Whether you need a kitchen that’s great for entertaining, perfect for baking, or ideal for multi-generational living, a redesign is the best way to get the space you’re looking for. Completely renovating your kitchen can transform your quality of life and help you fall in love with your home all over again.
Things Have Changed
A change in circumstances is one of the most common reasons for kickstarting a kitchen renovation project. For example, your children may have flown the nest, giving you the time and space to plan a refurb, or you may have moved in with a new partner, changed job or begun working from home. Whatever has shifted in your life, this could be the ideal moment to create a kitchen that aligns perfectly with your evolving lifestyle.
Lack Of Storage Space
If your cupboards are full and your prep space cluttered, a full custom kitchen renovation may be the only way to get the space you need. Unlike purely aesthetic changes - like resurfacing or refinishing - a complete refurb gives you the chance to rethink the space and build more storage into the design. This allows you to enhance the usability of your kitchen and create a layout that really works for you.
It’s Finally Time
Because we spend so much of our time in the kitchen, it’s common for people to begin to feel frustrated or discontented with the existing look or layout of the space, especially if the original work wasn’t done to the highest standard. At some point, this dissatisfaction can become impossible to ignore, and a refurb – or a move - is the only option.
If the look or functionality of your kitchen has been bothering you for a while, and you’ve decided that this is your forever home, then maybe now’s the time to invest in your kitchen. Giving your house the kitchen it deserves will help you to complete your property and create a space you really enjoy spending time in.
Wear And Tear
Wear and tear is inevitable in any kitchen. No matter how well you maintain your work surfaces, appliances, and cupboard doors, daily use will gradually degrade their appearance and functionality, eventually leaving your kitchen feeling outdated and worn.
If you're generally satisfied with the layout and style of your kitchen but notice signs of ageing, consider opting for a kitchen makeover instead of a complete renovation. At Drew Forsyth & Co. our kitchen makeover package is designed for homeowners who appreciate the quality and feel of their existing kitchen but desire some modern upgrades.
This package can include:
New Appliances: Upgrade to the latest models for enhanced efficiency and style.
New Worktops: Replace old surfaces with high-quality materials to revitalise the heart of your home.
Change of Handles: Simple changes like new handles can make a significant difference in your kitchen's aesthetics.
Change the Colour: A new colour scheme can dramatically alter the mood and style of your kitchen without extensive renovations.
From the addition of a small extra unit to something as substantial as a new island, our makeover services can cater to your specific needs.
These targeted updates can breathe new life into your kitchen without the need for a full renovation. However, if you’re seeking a completely new look or an updated layout, then a full kitchen renovation might be the solution. Whether it’s a few upgrades or a major overhaul, we can help you achieve the kitchen that best suits your needs and preferences.
Completing Your Dream Home
Have you recently bought a new home only to find that the kitchen is tired, outdated or just not designed to suit you? If your new property is perfect apart from the kitchen, this is your opportunity to embark on your kitchen renovation journey and make your dream home a reality. Creating the kitchen you’ve always wanted will help you stamp your personality on your new property and make the house a home.
Functionality
Functionality should be at the heart of any good kitchen design. Although beauty is of course important, if the space doesn’t work on a practical level, then a renovation may be required.
Think about how easy it is to move around the space, how cluttered the work surfaces are and if there’s enough room for food prep and storage. A good custom kitchen renovation should be able to solve most of your issues and make your space fully functional once more.
Creating A Kitchen That Suits Your Lifestyle
The kitchen has always been the heart of the home. However, since the pandemic, it’s become even more important as a place to meet, socialise and be together. If your lifestyle has evolved over the past few years, renovating your kitchen could help you create a more open-plan ground floor that’s perfect for family, friends, and entertaining.
