4 tips for surviving your kitchen remodel

Written by on May 6, 2008 · 3 Comments

You’ve finally decided to remodel that 1970s kitchen. Out with the Avocado Green; out with the Harvest Gold tile. Wait! Those colors are back.

Presuming you have a design, licensed contractor and building permits; there are some things to consider before bringing in the wrecking crew.

  1. Temporary Kitchen. Patios are ideal. Water and drain lines in exterior walls, can occasionally be temporally routed to a utility sink. It beats washing dishes in the bathtub.
  2. Construction Zone. Stay out of the way. It’s for your safety.
  3. Be flexible! Unexpected situations will occur.
  4. Contractor’s Aid. Designate a bathroom; keep snacks and nonalcoholic drinks coming.

Keep your sense of humor! You’ll soon have the home you desired.
