🧰 How to Plan a Successful Kitchen Remodel
Renovating a kitchen is one of the biggest investments a homeowner can make. Here’s how to plan it right:
1️⃣ Set a Realistic Budget
Include not just materials and labour, but permits, appliances, and contingency (about 10–15% for surprises).
2️⃣ Hire a Trusted Vancouver Contractor
A reputable contractor like Aftermath Contracting ensures your renovation meets BC building codes and stays on schedule.
3️⃣ Choose Timeless Design Over Trendy
Trends fade fast. Opt for durable materials and colors that stay stylish for years.
4️⃣ Think Function First
Before picking tiles or handles, plan how you’ll use your space. Do you cook daily? Entertain often? Small details like layout flow matter most.
5️⃣ Focus on Lighting
Vancouver’s winters can feel dark — great lighting (under-cabinet LEDs, pendant fixtures) instantly changes the feel of a space.
