You look forward to all of the extra counter space and ease-of-use you’ll gain when you do a major kitchen overhaul. What’s better is that a remodel gives you the opportunity to update all of your appliances (the oven, refrigerator, and dishwasher) to have a kitchen that’s far more functional than you’ve ever dreamed! Here’s some advice to keep in mind while you’re selecting the new equipment.

Choose Wisely

You’re spending a lot of money on your remodel, so we understand wanting to cut costs where you can. But a refrigerator or an oven is not something you should skimp on. Make sure you choose high-efficiency appliances with all of the features you need for efficient, convenient cooking and cleaning. Choose appliances with warranties and make sure licensed contractors put them into place, so that you can expect them to run at their best.

Remember that You Can Break Convention

When you’re remodeling a kitchen, you don’t have to go with the standard appliance arrangements and fixtures! You have so many options, and you should take advantage of different types of arrangements as they suit your lifestyle. If you bake a lot or enjoy preparing the big family meals, you might want two stacked ovens instead of one. A larger range might be your taste, or you may take the opportunity to upgrade to gas rather than electric. It’s your home! Compare your options and do something different.

Go Bold

Want to make a splash with your kitchen design? A touch of color here and there will do it, and if you don’t know where to start, consider your appliances! We don’t recommend pastels that may go in and out of style through the years, but a bold red could work for you (depending on your style) or a bright silver theme. You can also go with a unique range hood if you’d like to jazz things up. Consult with your contractor.
