Denver Home Remodeling

Even if You’re Doing it Yourself, Remodeling Decisions are Made Easy with the Help of a Professional

One of the common complaints from homeowners renovating any room in their house is that they get sick of making decisions. But while deciding what colors, finishes, appliances, flooring and countertops you want in your kitchen might seem like a daunting task, it doesn’t have to be. Even if you prefer to do all the actual labor and designing yourself, a professional can help sort through the seemingly endless options and act as a guide throughout the process. Having a professional designer on hand doesn’t have to mean you let someone else take over designing your home (unless that’s what you want). If you want to be hands on with your kitchen remodel, but still want some guidance from a professional, here are a few things a good designer should do for you:

• Ask for and make every attempt to consider your ideas with regard to colors, finishes and textures while also suggesting ideas you may not have thought about.
• Ask about your family’s cooking style and entertaining needs.
• Respect your price range, and make every attempt to find the best quality products in that range.
• Respect that you know what you like, but make sure you are informed of what the designer thinks will realistically work.
• Make sure you know all your options before you purchase anything.
• Consider your kitchen remodel in terms of the potential value of your home if you decide to sell.
• Help you ensure that your kitchen remodel works with the design of the rest of your home (if that’s important to you).
• Be up front about availability of products and pricing.
• Assist (if needed) with dealing with contractors.
• Keep in mind at all times that the purpose of the kitchen remodel is to improve your home and serve your family’s needs.

In the current economy, everyone is cutting back, and many people are (understandably) looking to scale down home remodeling projects. But just because the economy is slow doesn’t mean you can’t or shouldn’t make repairs to your home. Refurbishing your home – especially an important room like the kitchen – may cost some money in the short term. But in the long run, whether you plan to stay in your home or not, you’ll be better off with an updated kitchen.

In order to stretch your kitchen remodeling dollar, it’s important to think not only in the short term of what you’d like your kitchen to look like, but in the long term – what will add value to your home and makes sense with how your family uses its kitchen? Some details you may want to consider:

1. How long do you foresee staying in your home? If you’re intending to sell your home when the market picks up, what will potential buyers be looking for in your kitchen?
2. If you’re intending to stay in your home for a while, what remodeling projects will best serve your family’s needs?
3. Will making major changes to your kitchen (changing layout, new appliances) realistically add value to your home, or does the room just need a bit of a makeover?
4. Once you know what needs to be done, consider in which order it makes sense to tackle the projects or if any of them can be done simultaneously. Does it make sense to install cabinets or countertops before you’ve painted, or even decided on a color scheme?
5. If it seems financially overwhelming to do an entire kitchen remodel at once, can it be done in bits and pieces? Can you live with an outdated refrigerator for a few months but redo the floors now?
6. Consider your lifestyle and prioritize. If you never cook, but love to entertain, does it make sense to make sense to install a high-tech range? Perhaps adding more seating, a hutch for dinnerware or a bar area would better suit your needs.

Regardless of your level of home remodeling experience, consulting with a professional is extremely helpful. The experts at Aaah! The Kitchen Place can help with any kitchen remodeling project – no matter the size or the budget. Call 970-225-9456 or visit aaahthekitchenplace.com today to find out how our Certified Kitchen Designers can help you with your Denver home remodel.

Even if you think really hard about the kitchen cabinets you’ve seen, none of them probably stand out in your memory. Kitchen cabinets historically, for the most part, have not been designed to have a whole lot of character. And now, especially if your home is older, you might feel like you’re stuck staring at the same unremarkable cabinets as you’ve seen in every other house. Or maybe you do like the cabinets and cupboards you have, but just want something new or updated. Perhaps you’re remodeling or building a kitchen from scratch and need ideas to complement your brand new fixtures, countertops and flooring.

Beyond the traditional choice between light or dark wood, there are hundreds of other options to consider for your kitchen cabinets, including:

• Framed cabinetry
• Frameless designs
• Inset styles
• Stains
• Glazes
• Painted finishes
• Distressing
• Custom finishes
• Custom colors

However you want your kitchen to look (and however you feel about your old cabinets), Aaah! The Kitchen Place is your source for all your Denver kitchen cabinet needs. We help our clients find cabinetry in every finish, style, stain, color and price range and to narrow down the seemingly endless options.

If you’re completing a kitchen remodel, you’ve no doubt considered (or will at some point consider) every element of the room – counters, flooring, cabinets, appliances, storage and layout included. But what about the areas surrounding your new kitchen? Chances are, especially if you live in an older home, you have quirky or odd-shaped little parts of your home that would make a great space for a window seat, breakfast nook, island, or even just a bigger pantry.

Perhaps you already have ideas to make use out of these unique spaces in your home. Aaah! The Kitchen Place can help make your vision for a great bar, island, butler’s pantry (or virtually anything else you can dream up) a reality. If you know you’d like to do something different with the layout of your space but don’t exactly know how to go about it, the Certified Kitchen Designers at Aaah! The Kitchen Place can help you draft a plan and determine what elements work best with your kitchen and the rest of your home.

Everybody goes about home remodeling differently. Some people can pull design and layout ideas seemingly out of thin air, while others like to meticulously research photos and see all the options for cabinets, flooring and countertops before they make any decisions.

The Kitchen Place (which has been serving the Denver area for 25 years) will make every step of the process easy. Just a few of the elements of home remodeling projects we can assist with are:

• Cabinets: A variety of styles, woods, stains and colors.
• Countertops: Granite, stainless steel, marble, ceramic tile, wood/butcher block and more.
• Layout: Depending on your family’s cooking style, our Certified Kitchen Designers can help you decide where everything in your new kitchen should go. Or if you already have a layout in mind, we can suggest ways to make the most of your kitchen’s flow.
• Appliances: We can assist in the selection of appliances for your family’s style of cooking.

For some, cabinets are simply a place to store food, dishes and cooking tools. But like appliances, countertops and flooring, cabinets are a large part of both the form and function of your kitchen space. If you are completing a kitchen remodel (yourself or hiring a contractor), or are even just starting to think about one, there’s no reason you should not get exactly what you want and need at a price you can afford.

Call 970-225-9456 today or visit aaahthekitchenplace.com to see what Aaah! The Kitchen Place can do for you. Whether you already have an idea of what you like or wish to consult with one of our award-winning Certified Kitchen Designers, we can help you find cabinets – as well as flooring, countertops and other design elements – that will serve your family’s needs and make your kitchen look great. We’ll help with all your cabinet options, including:

• Style: Traditional, modern, or somewhere in between? Frameless or inset?
• Finish: Glazed, distressed and textured are just a few of your options.
• Color: What will fit with your design scheme? There’s more to cabinet colors than just light or dark wood.
• Size and location: If you’re remodeling, your cabinets don’t necessarily have to go where they were. What makes the most sense with your cooking habits and storage needs, both ergonomically and aesthetically?

Aaah! The Kitchen Place is your source for Denver kitchen cabinets, outdoor kitchens, bathroom design and closet design. Our designers will work with you (and with your architect, builder or contractor if you like) to suggest options or to help you narrow down your selection.
