Kitchen renovations rank highly for those seeking to add value to their home. Kitchen remodels often reap the most reward when listing the home on the market, but they can be a challenge for homeowners financially. Before you upgrade, consider the scope of the project. Then, hire the right professional for the job to avoid overspending.
Remodeling contractor – Most renovations require the assistance of a certified contractor who has at least five years of experience. A certified contractor is equipped to tackle any project from demolition, electrical and plumbing to ventilation and installation. They are also responsible for outsourcing tasks to other professionals if needed.
Interior designer – Contractors typically work with designers to select the right aesthetics and finishes for a particular room. An interior designer might be worth hiring if you want your kitchen to flow seamlessly with other rooms in the home, or if you want to achieve a custom look with uncommon materials.
Kitchen designer – Not to be confused with an interior designer, a kitchen designer is important to have on hand when reconfiguring an existing space. Consider hiring one if you are planning to redesign a cabinet layout or move non load-bearing walls.
Architect – Your local zoning board may require an architect to authorize renovations, so be sure to check regulations before beginning a project. Architects are also helpful when rearranging load-bearing walls, tampering with mechanical systems or making any other major structural changes.
