Are you tired of the current look of your kitchen? It’s pretty common for most homeowners so you’re not alone. Especially after a year like 2020 when everybody was stuck at home and forced to notice all of the problems in their kitchen. But renovations can cost a lot of money that sometimes just isn’t there. Lucky for you, the kitchen update experts of Bernalillo County here at N-Hance Wood Refinishing of Albuquerque have some cheaper ideas that will make a big impact. Check out these simple kitchen updates you can do in your own home.
Backsplash
Backsplashes can make a big statement or simply blend in. The choice is totally yours. One problem is that you might want something that’s a trend today but when you try to sell your home will be totally outdated. That makes it difficult to want to spend countless dollars and hours installing cute little tiles, stones, or bricks. There is a simple solution to this problem, and it’s a faux backsplash.
A faux backsplash can often just be a nice peel and stick material that you can easily put up on your own for under $100 (maybe even $75 depending on the size of the area). You can find some beautiful faux backsplashes at your local Home Depot.
Light Fixtures
Honestly, this surprises a lot of people but there are a lot of simple things you can do with your lighting that will literally brighten up the look of your kitchen. If you’re going for a softer or dimmer look, there are some tips that can help you with that too. Sometimes, just changing from a harsh yellow to a soft white will make your kitchen look new.
Just remember that you shouldn’t have to rewire your whole kitchen in order to make the change you want. Just find some cheaper light fixtures that you feel comfortable installing by yourself. You’ll instantly notice a difference without needing to dip deep into your savings account.
Plumbing Fixtures
Again, this isn’t a huge renovation where you’ll need to work with a ton of pipes. You just need to know what you want and what will fit. Find a nice sink with good fixtures that you’ll want to look at and use for years to come. Make sure that it fits within your budget too though.
Replace the Cabinet Doors
This is the only thing on this entire list that you really shouldn’t attempt on your own. A professional cabinet refacing service is truly the best bet to get this done right. It will be a bit pricier than the other items on this list, but it will be a cheaper way to update your cabinets without doing a complete remodel.
