A kitchen remodeling project provides an excellent return on investment and can transform the way you enjoy your home. There are a few common reasons that homeowners decide to remodel their kitchens. The following will let you know it’s time to get started on your own new kitchen design and unlock its true potential.

When to Consider Kitchen Remodeling

1. Age

An outdated kitchen will impact both the function and aesthetic of your home. Older homes may start to show their age with cracking tiles, broken cabinet doors, and failing appliances. If the kitchen was well-maintained, it may be in decent condition but still have an older vibe that dates your home. If you look at your kitchen and an earlier era comes to mind, it’s time for some updating.

2. Size

Many homeowners begin kitchen remodeling to add square footage. Whether there just isn’t enough counter space or you want to add a large center island, you need a large space. This may also be a result of your lifestyle as well. For example, maybe your child is showing potential as a fellow chef, and you need room to work around each other.

3. Efficiency

There have been incredible advancements recently in kitchen technology. Older appliances get less efficient with each year, sucking up more energy to do their jobs as they age. If you find that your monthly utility bills are climbing, you can upgrade your appliances to Energy Star®-rated appliances. Increasing efficiency allows you to splurge a little with convenient additions, such as a pot filler next to the stove or a smart refrigerator.
