Kitchen & Bathroom Design Blog

Our team at Lang's Kitchen & Bath realizes that a home remodel can seem like a daunting prospect, especially if you've never had one done before. What you'll experience during your home remodeling project will vary, of course, depending on exactly what you're having remodeled. As experienced kitchen remodelers for residents in Middletown and beyond, we know that having your kitchen renovated will have a greater impact on you living your life while it's underway than having any other room done. The only exception to this would be having a bathroom redone if it's the only one in your home or perhaps one out of only two bathrooms with several people living in the home.

Preparing for the Remodeled Room Being Unavailable

If you're having your kitchen remodeled, where will you cook your meals and eat while it's being done? In the event of a bathroom being remodeled where it's one of only one or two bathrooms in the home, will you need a port-a-potty set up in the back yard or some other arrangement?

Having to set up other living arrangements while the room is being redone is a good argument for doing your New Jersey kitchen remodeling while it's warm outside. This will enable you to grill out on a back patio or in the back yard while your kitchen is a construction zone. You might also want to set up a toaster, toaster oven and a hot plate on a table in the dining room and plug the coffeemaker in there as well, so you can still get a decent amount of meal prep done.

Be Prepared for Changes or Delays

However long your kitchen remodel is supposed to take, be prepared for it to last even longer. It's unlikely that any kitchen remodeling projects in Middletown, Middlesex or anywhere else for that matter will come in under budget and take less time than originally anticipated. If anything, the general rule of thumb is that you should plan on them taking a little longer than originally estimated.

Midway through the renovation, your contractor might discover a problem with the plumbing after pulling out a sink you want replaced, or materials might be late in arriving that are needed to complete a certain portion of the job. Also, you should leave room for the possibility that you may have a change of heart about how you want a certain aspect of the renovation to proceed as you see it coming together.
