As with any reno project, a little bit of planning goes a long way to assuring your new kitchen exactly suits your needs and is seamless to install! Check out the essentials and need-to-knows for your DIY kitchen renovation right now.\n

How does your kitchen work?\n

Before you start thinking about your new kitchen, look at how you use your old one first. Note any problems you find irritating and would like to eliminate. If you\u2019ve got a base cupboard that you can\u2019t get right into, think about changing them for drawers. Maybe you\u2019ve got an appliance cluttering up your bench and want it hidden away in its own cupboard. Another common problem is having the dish storage area a long way from the sink and dishwasher so tidying up takes longer.\n

Start the design\n

Getting your design right is crucial. You won\u2019t get a second chance once your kitchen is installed! Do your research to find out what cabinets and gadgets various companies have that tick all your kitchen boxes. Online planning tools are a great resource to help you out. It may also be worth getting a professional kitchen designer involved. They know design ideas that you\u2019ve never thought of as well as the pros and cons of the various kitchen materials. It could be money well spent!\n

Know your appliances\n

As part of the design process, you will need to know the size and type of your appliances. It\u2019s a good idea to select the actual products before you begin. Different models have differing specifications, which may alter the cabinets and components you need to order. Having them on site for your tradies to refer to will make sure their services are in the right spot for that appliance.\n

Make a timetable\n

When all the designing and appliance selection is done, it\u2019s time to get started! Before you break out the demolition tools, draw up a timetable of how your reno will run and give your tradespeople plenty of notice of when they\u2019ll be needed. Calling them a day or two before you need them is a recipe for long delays. Have all the flat-pack components you need at the ready. You may have to order in some parts and you don\u2019t want to find this out one you\u2019ve already started.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
