Kitchen Design On A Dime

January 7, 2011 By Leave a Comment

Your kitchen is a constant source of nourishment and satisfaction. From making a midnight snack to preparing for a party, the kitchen is a gathering place to nourish body, mind and spirit. If your cooking space looks like a relic from decades gone by, it’s time to consider a new kitchen design on a dime.

Assess Your Kitchen Space

Even if your budget is small, you can get big results from minor kitchen renovations. Consider remodeling rather than tearing out your entire kitchen. Assess the “target” areas you want to improve or make more efficient. Once you know what you want, you’re ready to transform your kitchen into an edible oasis.

Compromise With Quality

There are many ways to compromise with quality when it comes to kitchen design updates. While you may not be able to afford marble or granite countertops, there are durable laminates that look like the real thing. You might long for ceramic floors but vinyl can be equally attractive and functional. Energy efficient appliances save you money on utility bills for years to come. Stock cabinets with custom pieces added can save you a bundle.

Hire A Professional or Do-It-Yourself?

When you do-it-yourself, you risk making mistakes that ultimately cost more money down the road. You also need to take time away from your work, business and family to spend endless hours remodeling your kitchen. Hiring a professional often saves time, money and a multitude of errors. Glazer Construction will advise you of the best ways to remodel your kitchen within the parameters of your current budget. Instead of guessing and getting the wrong answers, get the straight skinny from a professional. You know your kitchen design project will be completed in a timely, efficient manner.

How Do You Hire A Professional?

Glazer Construction makes it easy to hire a professional contractor. Simply meet with a pro from Glazer to discuss your kitchen design dreams and budget. After a personal meeting, you receive a proposal with accurate pricing. When a contract is agreed upon, plans are drawn up for your approval. The site is prepared and protected then work begins. You have a weekly meeting with a Glazer professional to discuss the progress of your kitchen design project. Change orders are prepared along the way so you never receive a surprise bill at the end. When the work is finished, the job site is cleaned up. You receive a 1-year warranty on the work and a Glazer professional with check with you in 3 months to make sure you’re completely happy. Having a beautiful new kitchen is easier than you think!

Do You Need Buckhead Kitchen Remodeling?

November 22, 2010 By Leave a Comment

The kitchen is one of the most frequently used rooms in your home besides the bathroom. Though we spend most of our time in the kitchen, often the design and appliances are outdated and inefficient. Are you the next likely candidate for Buckhead kitchen remodeling?

Consider a few simple questions regarding your current kitchen design:

1. Are your appliances so old you don’t know when they were purchased? If you feel like you’re stepping back in time when you enter the kitchen, new appliances give this room the boost it needs. Further, old kitchen appliances use more energy than the latest energy efficient models. You can save significantly on utility bills by adding a new oven, stove, dishwasher, refrigerator and microwave to your kitchen.

2. Do you have enough work space? Old-fashioned kitchen designs often left little room to work. Adding a center island or additional counter space gives you plenty of room for cooking and entertaining.

3. Do you have enough storage space? If you’re running out of places to store pots, pans, dishes and food, you need more storage space. A center island, new cabinets or pantry makes the most of your kitchen storage space so your counters aren’t overrun with stuff.

4. Is your kitchen lighting inadequate? Make sure your Buckhead kitchen remodeling includes bright, energy efficient lighting so you can see what you’re cooking and service. Green bulbs help our environment and your money.

5. Are your fixtures antiquated? An old sick and fixtures make your kitchen look dingy. A fresh sink with sparkling fixtures is a simple way to revamp the look of your kitchen right away while improving its efficiency.

6. Do you have sufficient windows? You spend countless hours cooking and cleaning in the kitchen. Make sure your Buckhead kitchen remodeling project includes well-insulated windows that are easily opened to let in air and light. Include an exhaust fan to get rid of unpleasant odors in the kitchen in any weather.

If these questions made you think about the current condition of your kitchen, it’s time to start a Buckhead kitchen remodeling project.

Kitchen Countertops Choices

November 8, 2010 By Leave a Comment

atlanta kitchen remodel countertop choicesIf you’re looking to add value to your Atlanta home, renovating the kitchen is a great place to start. It’s not uncommon for kitchen remodels to earn above 60% of their value back when the home sells. One of the most dominant features in the kitchen is the countertop. You want your counters to not only be aesthetically pleasing, but also highly functional.

Here are some of your many material choices, plus some pros and cons of each. There are many options, so if you want to guarantee that you select the right one for your kitchen needs, consult a knowledgeable contractor.

Natural Materials

Using natural elements for countertops was once a popular trend, but today, it seems to be a design preference that’s here to stay.

Natural stone is a very common countertop material. Granite, slate, marble and soapstone are all options. Some are more expensive than others – granite becoming one of the more cost-controlled – but homeowners can’t get enough of the natural, organic appeal they add to their kitchens. The main downside to natural stone countertops is their porosity. Easily able to absorb liquid, natural stone has to be well sealed, and they often require special cleaning.

Wood has long been a popular choice for butcher blocks and kitchen islands. They make wonderful counters, too. A variety of wood countertops are available in several stains, but as with natural stone, they require a bit of effort in order to maintain their beauty.

Did you know you could have countertops made from lava stone? Lava that has transformed into a stone-like solid is covered with enamel, and the overall look is similar to that of tile.

Manmade materials.

There is something to be said for the affordability and diversity of manmade countertops.

Take laminate, for example. It’s been featured in kitchens for decades and is still one of the more popular selections. In fact, laminate countertops are still being improved upon and are now available in an impressive array of colors and textures. They are also one of the more affordable options. Unfortunately, laminate is not heat tolerant and it easily chips.

Manufactured stone countertops are growing in popularity. They mimic the appearance of natural stone but eliminate the natural elements’ less desirable qualities. These hybrids are less porous and require little maintenance.

Stainless steel countertops are common in industrial kitchens, as well as kitchens with more modern, sleek design. If you are not a fan of the shiny, silver appearance, there are several other metal countertop options. Copper and pewter are just two.

One of the newer kitchen countertop trends is concrete. It’s extraordinarily sturdy, and because of its slightly rough appearance, dings and dents are no big deal. Plus, you can choose from an assortment of textures and colors. Acid washed concrete can take on all the colors of the rainbow.
