The kitchen is the heart of the home where families and friends gather to make memories. Remodeling your kitchen is a great way to add value to your home because to some home buyers, it is the most important room in the home. At Spectrum Stone Designs, we have worked on countless kitchens, helping families install beautiful natural countertops to transform their kitchens into beautiful, loved and comfortable spaces. Here are some tips that will help you upgrade your kitchen and boost your home value.

 

Upgrading your kitchen countertops and cabinets will make the largest impact on your kitchen. Countertops can be tricky to replace and should only be done by professionals. Alternatively, cabinets can be updated easily on your own. Even minor changes to your cabinets can make a big impact on your kitchen. USA Cabinet Store says it is okay if a full new set of cabinets is not in your budget. A fresh paint job or new hardware can make a major impact in a kitchen. New paint or hardware could be as little as 15% of your renovation budget and will make your kitchen look newer and more polished. This adds more value to your home

 

If you have more wiggle room with your budget, a kitchen island is something to consider. Not only do you get to add some counter space, you also add a highly sought-after kitchen feature for potential buyers. An island gives more prep and cooking space and can also provide more storage. Better Homes and Gardens recommends kitchen islands not only for their beauty but also for their timeless design. Kitchen islands will not go out of style any time soon

 

Homes and Gardens has other ideas on affordable, easier ways to update your kitchen to not only make it more comfortable but also potentially bring you more investment if you ever sell. A backsplash can be such an eye-catcher in a kitchen. Even a subtle, beautifully done backsplash can impact the vibe of your space. Shiny tiles and colorful patterns can bring a special wow factor, while matte and neutral colors and designs can help even out a busy or colorful space. If your kitchen just needs a bit more personality and you want something affordable, try adding some simple open shelves. There are so many options online at affordable prices and even just a few floating wood shelves can make your kitchen feel so much lighter and brighter. Another plus is you can display some of your favorite things in a pretty, unique way.
