Inexpensive Kitchen Remodeling Ideas

People don’t seem to realize that the kitchen is one of the most used rooms in every household. It is usually attached to the back entrance of your house meaning people are constantly coming and going through it. It is where children do homework, pets are fed, parents bake for charity functions,couples spend romantic evenings cooking a candle light dinner, and families come together to discuss their daily transactions. No wonder it is one of the most sought after home improvement areas. Kitchen remodeling doesn’t have to be expensive. It doesn’t matter if you live in Schaumburg, Arlington Heights or another surrounding Chicago-land area; P&L Construction is here to help with some economical updates that will pack a bang for your buck.

• Add a butcher-block top. For an additional permanent workspace, replace the small countertop area between your range and refrigerator with a butcher-block top. You’ll make this often overlooked area much more functional. The most convenient place to install one is right next to the stove and for such a small space; the butcher block will be fairly inexpensive.
• Install a backsplash. There’s nothing like a new backsplash to brighten up a tired space. It doesn’t have to be expensive, either. The cost will vary depending on your choice of material. If you have your heart set on an expensive tile why not mix in some more cost efficient solid colors to create different patterns.
• Painting: Updating the color of your kitchen can change the feel completely. Use bright colors to open the space up or darker ones to make it feel cozier. For ideas and samples call and speak to one of our skilled painting contractors.
