When homeowners embark on a kitchen renovation, one big question on their minds is this: how can I maximize my kitchen space? Some feel like their kitchens are too small. On the other hand, big families often feel like there’s never enough space, even in large kitchens. No matter the size you’re working with, the key to a kitchen remodel is to use your space wisely.
In this article from Four Elements Construction Inc., learn more about how kitchen renovations in Edmonton can maximize space, so you always feel like there’s enough room.
Island time
When it comes to kitchen renovations, consider installing a multi-functional kitchen island. Even in a small kitchen, and with the help of an experienced kitchen designer, you may be able to find the space to add an island. The great thing is you can use a kitchen island for more than one purpose. You can build a kitchen island to eat at and store appliances or dishes underneath. You can also use your island as counter space, especially if that’s in short supply in the rest of your kitchen.
Discuss your options with a contractor who can maximize your kitchen space. Four Elements knows how important adding more kitchen space is to their clients. Get in touch to share your concerns and discuss options!
Room to grow
When adding storage space in your kitchen, consider installing taller cabinets. Look at where the tops of your cabinets end, and your ceilings begin. You can build taller cabinets or add upper cabinets if there is room between these two spaces. This will increase your storage space. Be sure to consider adding more shelves inside your cabinets too! Not sure if this is doable in your kitchen? Reach out to kitchen renovation companies in Edmonton, like Four Elements and get their opinions.
Storage space is a major factor in an uncluttered kitchen. Moreover, having room to store kitchen appliances, dishes, pots, pans, and more increases your kitchen space. Four Elements in Edmonton will use their 4E Approach to design cabinet space that will allow for as much space in your kitchen as possible.
Open it up
Depending on the structural integrity of your house, you may be able to open up a wall between your kitchen and living room or dining room. Opening a wall between your kitchen and dining room might be another option. This type of work would indeed be considered a more major renovation. However, this is a great option if your budget allows it and you hope to maximize space. Many general contractors in Edmonton have experience opening walls to allow for more space and an entirely upgraded look and feel. On top of this, it’s a great idea to consider renovating to create an open concept on your main floor. Open-concept homes are in demand and offer many other benefits.
