CABINETS FOR KITCHENS AND BATH: HOME REMODELING TIPS

If you’re planning to remodel your kitchen or bathroom, you want to update the look, increase resale value, add functionality, amenities and storage or a combination of all or some of these. With so many product lines, styles and finishes, how do you select the right cabinets for kitchen or the right cabinets for bathrooms on your remodeling project? Choosing the right cabinet style for you and your family is easy. There are kitchen and bath designers that are willing to assist you so you can find the cabinetry that best matches your vision and style.

Know What You Need
Cabinets fall into three main categories: Stock, Semi-Custom, and Custom. A stock line of cabinetry will give you basic bath and kitchen cabinet sizes with a few choices of woods, colors and door styles. Semi-custom cabinetry will expand on the basic cabinets and offer more choices of woods, colors and door styles. Custom cabinetry allows kitchen designers to design a cabinet from scratch.  The designers are limited only by their imagination.

Consider Material
Cabinets for bathrooms are the hardest working cabinetry in your home. They have to hold up to daily wear and tear as you get ready for work or give kids their baths. And they’re constantly exposed to moisture, which is no friend to wood or wood-like materials. Granite, marble and laminate are the three best options you have for bathroom cabinets and tops.  On the other hand, Wood can work as cabinets for kitchens since you store solely dry goods.

Space and Location
Make sure cabinet doors have enough room to swing without hitting something or getting in the way of foot traffic or causing head bumps. Measure the depth of bathroom and kitchen cabinets with doors open to make sure they fit comfortably.

Have a Budget
When you begin thinking about a kitchen or bath remodel without clearly defining your kitchen remodeling budget, you have not established a clear path to begin the process.  You may not have any idea how much a kitchen or bath remodeling project may cost but you probably have an idea about how much you can comfortably allocate or spend. Cabinets for bathroom and kitchen both eat up almost half of your remodeling budget so make sure to do a lot of research.
