Kitchen Contractor Gets You Cooking With Kitchens that Work

By / Kitchen Remodel / Comments Off on Kitchen Contractor Gets You Cooking With Kitchens that Work

Are you dreading cooking for the holidays?  Do you love cooking but hate cooking in your kitchen?  Maybe your kitchen needs an overhaul to make it functional as well as beautiful.  When you work with the right kitchen contractor, you end up with a kitchen that looks great and works even better.   Ready to brainstorm a new kitchen?  Here’s some inspiration from Inspired Remodels recent renovations.

Cooking Made Easier

Tired of moving those heavy pots and pans?  Cooktops with continuous grates makes it easy to move pots and pans without lifting.  Sealed burners make clean-up a breeze.  Get a restaurant quality sear and boil water quickly with a high-quality gas cooktop.  Cooktops allow you to maximize your storage space too.

By placing the knobs on the front, they stay cool while you cook and are easily accessible.  This kitchen was made for cooking.  The wall mounted hood effectively handles the output from high-heat cooking.  Plenty of storage is still available under the cooktop for the items you want to keep at hand while cooking.

Drawers give you pull out storage that you can see at a glance.  Gone are the days of digging in the back of a dark cabinet, when your kitchen contractor utilizes drawers for storage.

Double wall ovens give you the freedom to roast your turkey and bake a  pecan pie at the same time.  Speaking of pies, if baking is your passion select an oven with a convection setting for the consistent heating that is crucial for successful baking.  Convection ovens use a fan to circulate the heated air; making for better kale chips for sure!

Clean Up Without Fuss

Sinks can make the difference between clean up that’s a chore and clean up that’s a breeze.  A good kitchen contractor understands that for every meal that is cooked, there is a meal that requires clean up.  Clean up should be as easy as the cooking.  Take cleaning into consideration when designing your dream kitchen.

When this small kitchen was remodeled, it became functional as well as beautiful.  The double sink is perfect for washing up.  Undermount sinks are as functional as they are stylish.  Brush those crumbs right into the sink.  No grooves, cracks, or crevices will catch them.  The location of the dishwasher immediately to the right of the sink makes rinsing and loading a breeze for the right-handed person.  Placing the sink across from the cooktop also makes filling a pot of water for pasta as easy as a pivot.

farmhouse sinkHave large pots, pans, and roasters to wash?  A farmhouse style sink may be what you need.  A farmhouse sink is traditionally much deeper than a traditional sink and has a single basin.  The design also sits slightly to the front of the cabinets beneath it.  Farmhouse sinks originated in kitchens without running water and water splashed as the sink was filled.  This slightly protruding design kept the cabinet underneath from getting wet in the fill process.  We have running water in our kitchens these days, but the design has endured.

Kitchen Renovation Ideas to Fall in Love with this Fall

By / Home Improvement, Kitchen Remodel / Comments Off on Kitchen Renovation Ideas to Fall in Love with this Fall

Thinking about renovating your kitchen before the holidays?  Inspired Remodels, the premier kitchen renovation company, has some ideas for touches that will give you a kitchen to fall in love with this fall.  Just take a look.

 Use Patterns in Your Kitchen Renovation

Chevron patterns are everywhere.  We are finding them in upholstery, wallpaper, textiles and now they are even showing up in tile.  Check out this chevron pattern we recently installed on a backsplash.

This is tilework is practical, easy to clean, and adds timeless style to the kitchen.  Notice the use of grey?  Grey is the new white in interior design.

 Another popular pattern is achieved with subway tiles.  These traditional 3 x 6 tiles are available in an incredible color palate and their appeal is timeless.  Your kitchen renovation should be about creating a kitchen that you will fall in love with again and again.

When you stay with classic colors and lines you get a kitchen that is ageless.  Simply update the fixtures, lighting, and cabinet hardware when you are ready to freshen thing up. 

Task Lighting to Love

Your kitchen needs to be more than beautiful; it needs to be functional as well.  Having enough light to tell the parsley from the cilantro makes a real difference in the way your food tastes! 

You can make the most of natural light and augment it with lighting for ambience but the key to a kitchen you love is task lighting.  Task lighting gives you the light you need to get the job done.  Chopping, kneading and mixing are easier and safer when you can see what you are doing.

Lighting mounted under the cabinet is a way to add light to your work areas.  Notice how this kitchen renovation gets a lighting lift with under-cabinet lights.

Pendant lights are another fabulous way to provide lighting over an island or prep station.  Pendant lights direct the light exactly where you need it.  They are also available in a wide variety of finishes and shades to match any décor.   When you are ready to update, just change the shade and it looks like new lighting.

Little Touches – Big Impact

Sometime it’s just the little things that make you fall in love with your kitchen.  Cabinet door knobs and drawer pulls are more than just a way to open the door/drawer they are an inexpensive way to highly customize your kitchen and make it yours.

Cabinet Hardware.  Just take a look at this drawer pull.  Yes, it is functional, but it is beautiful as well.  Same for the cabinet door knobs.

Pulls and knobs are like jewelry for your cabinets

Personalized Storage.  Make sure your kitchen renovation company understands your cooking style.  Incorporate storage where you need it most.  Do you like to stand over a simmering pot, stirring, tasting, and adding a dash of this or a touch of that?  If so, the unique storage drawer have you falling in love with your kitchen every time you cook.

Storage can also be used to transition from the kitchen to the living area.  This kitchen remodel included a transitional space that provides storage and display space and doubles as a wine bar too.  Perfect for the family that entertains from the kitchen area.
