Considering a kitchen or bath remodel?
If so, you’ve probably been watching HGTV programming which makes the renovation process look a little too easy. The reality is, remodeling your home can be a daunting task which, if not monitored closely, can easily run off schedule and over budget. When it comes to updating the most heavily used spaces in your home like a kitchen or bathroom, it really does pay to consult a designer.
Why hire a certified designer?
With a project this important, you want to make sure you’re making the right choices. It’s easy to get caught up in the “fun” aspects of a kitchen or bath renovation like color selection and design choices, only to lose sight of functionality and budget. Professional designers stay on top of trends and technology and understand how to seamlessly blend form with function. A certified designer knows how to pull all these pieces together to maximize your space and they can offer valuable insights on how to keep your project on budget —without sacrificing your design aesthetic.
How to work with a designer?
If you want to maximize the time with your designer, come prepared. Remember — a picture is worth a thousand words. Take lots of photos of your current kitchen or bathroom; jot down the room measurements as well. If you are working with an architect, bring the plans they’ve drawn. It is also helpful to collect inspiration from magazines and the Internet. Coming prepared will help the designer get a better sense of your current style as well as your expectations for the finished project.
What’s your budget and time frame?
Have a firm idea of what you want to spend to avoid a disconnect between plans and reality. If you have the budget for pro-grade appliances and high-end finishes, your kitchen designer can work those into the plans from the beginning. You should also confirm a time line for the work, though circumstances beyond anyone’s control can throw even the best-orchestrated jobs off schedule.
