Making small upgrades over time can still have a big impact on a kitchen, and deliver great satisfaction in the process.
MOBILE, Ala. (PRWEB) April 05, 2018
Kitchen renovations are among the most popular projects for homeowners, but not everyone wants to spend upwards of $20,000 for a complete remodel. Home Improvement Expert and host of “Today’s Homeowner,” Danny Lipford, rescues home enthusiasts who want to improve the look of their kitchens, but without the high price tag.
To share his advice nationwide, Lipford launched a series of TV segments airing April 2-9. In the segments, he points out several areas of the kitchen homeowners can address when considering upgrades.
“I often hear from homeowners who feel overwhelmed at the thought of remodeling their kitchen because it seems daunting – and expensive – to take it down to the studs for a complete update,” said Lipford. “What so many of them don’t realize, though, is it’s easy to break projects down instead of tackling a total re-do all at once. Making small upgrades over time can still have a big impact on a kitchen, and deliver great satisfaction in the process.”
Lipford recommended several options for a kitchen mini-facelift:
- Introduce a few glass-front cabinets.
Glass-front cabinets are a simple upgrade that can make even the smallest kitchen feel larger. Lipford points out they add brightness to the room and offer an opportunity to display collectibles or favorite glassware and dishes.
- Add a backsplash.
Lipford recommends adding a backsplash to give your kitchen a stylish focal point. With so many different types and styles available today, homeowners can create a tiled look for the entire kitchen, or perhaps just a small area behind the stove or around the sink area. Tiling is a DIY-friendly project according to Lipford who offers this tutorial video as a guide.
- Paint or upgrade countertops.
Lipford notes that with improvements in manufacturing, the cost of granite countertops is more affordable than ever. If installing new countertops doesn't fit your budget, he suggests painting as an alternative. There are paints available today made specifically for countertops in a variety of options.
- Replace hardware.
Changing out hinges, pulls and knobs on cabinetry is one of the easiest and least expensive ways to upgrade a kitchen according to Lipford.
- Upgrade your faucet.
Many homeowners today are gravitating toward commercial-inspired options to give their kitchens a gourmet, professional look. To achieve this look on a budget, Lipford recommends a kitchen faucet upgrade. There are tons of options and styles available today, and it’s something most homeowners can do for themselves with a little research and preparation. Lipford introduced viewers to The Foodie Faucet from Danze by Gerber as an example of how designers are adapting the commercial look and making it available and affordable for the average home kitchen. The red Caliente faucet makes quite a statement, but the line also comes in satin black, stainless steel and chrome.
The lifestyle segments will reach over 8 million viewers and are sponsored by Today’s Homeowner Media and Danze by Gerber. Find additional kitchen makeover tips and home improvement advice at TodaysHomeowner.com.
