There are many things to consider when remodeling your kitchen. First you will want to consider the size or square footage. You want to keep in mind that every inch of space is important. Especially if you have a smaller kitchen. Of course the size of your kitchen will determine your layout.

Are you going to be making your kitchen bigger by knocking out a wall or extending your kitchen size? If you will be knocking out a wall you can create an entire new layout and design.

If you are considering keeping your existing layout you can still make changes. Don’t feel as though you are stuck with your current layout

Once you have considered kitchen layout, take time to think about what you like about your current kitchen. How do you like the space now? Does it fit your needs? How do you move in the space? Do you have enough room for your appliances? Can it accommodate friends and family or does it feel to cluttered?

These are just some of the questions you should be asking yourself as you begin to plan your kitchen remodel.

How old is your home? Are you going to need to check into the electrical or plumbing? You may need to be in touch with an engineer if you plan of removing walls or adjusting some structural concerns. If you are adding new appliances you will want to make sure everything meets code and you have the proper electrical installed.

In some older homes you may have some flooring issues that may needs to be addressed in order to create flush straight walls.
