The kitchen is supposed to be the heart of your home. So if yours is less than welcoming it’s time to give it a facelift. But how do you know if your kitchen is ready for a makeover? Here, we take a look at some of the key signs to look out for that suggest you might need to take a trip to the DIY store or hire in a professional to give your room a complete revamp.
Sign 1 – Cramping And Constriction
Are you always alone in your kitchen? If so, is that because there’s just no room for anyone else to get in there with you? The best kitchens are the ones which offer sufficient space for everyone in the family to get together, share some family time and to enjoy themselves. However, if your kitchen is too cramped or constricted, it’s no longer a family room. You would probably be better off having a complete renovation to make your kitchen into an open plan area that frees up a lot of space and encourages better social interaction between family members.
Sign 2 – Your Kitchen Is A Nightmare To Clean
If you dread cleaning your kitchen because of all the nooks and crannies that accumulate dirt and bacteria, it’s definitely time for a kitchen facelift. A sloppy kitchen layout with a poorly planned space paired with peeling and cracked countertop surfaces makes any room difficult to keep clean and that could result in an unhygienic cooking environment. It’s time to think about getting some new countertops, replacing your tiling, upgrading your appliances and switching your flooring to something which you can wipe clean in a flash.
