Top Service Requests for Local Kitchen and Bathroom Contractors
When planning for a kitchen or bathroom remodel, it’s important to determine the specific services you need. Consider the following popular services:
Kitchen design
Usually drawn by a professional kitchen designer, kitchen designs are one of the first steps in a remodel or renovation. Kitchen designs can be illustrated with simple line drawings, blueprints, technical drawings, samples of flooring and cabinet choices, photographs of appliances and fixtures, and paint selection samples.
Kitchen remodeling
Kitchen remodeling services can range from simple kitchen makeovers and redecorating to major renovations and expansions. Kitchen remodeling contractors provide a full range of services, including cabinet refacing, new flooring and cabinets, new fixtures, and even major remodeling projects like moving walls and adding windows.
Kitchen/bathroom makeovers
Less invasive and time-consuming than remodeling or expansion, kitchen and bathroom makeovers change the look of your home without as much mess or expense. Kitchen makeover styles include contemporary, country, old world, traditional and rustic. Bathroom makeover styles include contemporary, old world, traditional and spa atmosphere.
Bathroom design
The first step in most bathroom remodeling projects is a redesign of the space. This may include moving or removing walls, adding on to the existing room, or reconfiguring the existing space to make it more usable. Bathroom designs can be drawn by professional draftspeople or may be offered by bathroom contractors.
Bathroom remodeling
New bathroom designs; bathroom makeovers and redecorating; bath expansions; and adding new flooring, vanities, and fixtures are all considered bathroom remodeling. Remodels can change the appearance and style of your bathroom and impact the value of your home.
Kitchen expansion
Kitchen remodels that involve expanding the size of the room are known as kitchen expansions. Kitchens can be expanded by removing or moving walls, expanding the kitchen into an adjacent room, building an addition to an existing kitchen, and removing ceiling-hung cabinets and countertops that cut off the kitchen from the rest of the house.
Kitchen and bathroom renovations
Kitchen and bathroom renovations change the appearance of existing rooms, making them more beautiful and functional. Renovations include physical updates (more workspace, extended countertops) and changes to style and decorations (new appliances, updated flooring and wall coverings).
Bathroom and kitchen additions
Whereas remodeling typically only addresses the existing space, kitchen and bathroom additions expand the space by building on to the home.
Cabinet installation
New bathroom and kitchen cabinets can change the look and functionality of the entire room. Cabinets come in RTA (ready to assemble), semi-custom and custom or built-to-order. Prices vary greatly depending on the materials that are used and the quality of the cabinets. While they can be the largest single expense in a remodel, quality cabinets are often worth the investment.
Countertop installation
Countertops are another crucial aspect of remodeling a kitchen or bathroom. Countertop choices include granite, quartz, marble, quartzite, stainless steel, butcher block and concrete. Ask your contractor for their recommendations on choosing a countertop material for your kitchen or bathroom.
Flooring installation
Flooring choices for kitchens and bathrooms include wood, laminate, vinyl, tile, natural stone, bamboo, cork and linoleum. Ask your contractor for a complete list of the flooring choices and installation methods they offer.
