Kitchen Renovation Tips

The renovation of a kitchen is a daunting task, not to be undertaken by the fainthearted. Apart from the enormity of the work, it becomes more problematic as it leads to the shut down of the nerve centre of your home. You are not able to use the kitchen for weeks and thus it becomes essential that you try to minimise the time taken in the process in renovation, at the same time making sure that the quality of the work is not affected.

The tips listed below will go a long way towards helping you in making the possibly excruciating experience of kitchen renovation into something that you might actually enjoy a lot.

• Remove and store food, utensils, crockery and appliances.
• Secure plastic sheeting across doorways to block dust and create 'walkways' to stop dirt being tracked through other areas.
• Dismantle and remove the existing kitchen, including appliances, cabinetry, benchtops, splashbacks, light fittings, sinks, taps, finishes and floor coverings.
• If making structural changes (resizing doors or windows, knocking down interior walls, adding skylights or serveries, concreting floors etc), these jobs come next.
• Configure electrical and plumbing services.
• Install cabinetry
• Install bench tops and splashbacks
• Fit all appliances
• Add floor coverings
• Seal surfaces and paint
• Clean and re-stock
