4 Kitchen Problems That Can Be Solved With a Remodel



Whether it’s cosmetic updates or structural changes, renovating the place where your family and friends gather can make your time at home more enjoyable. DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Beaverton discusses four common kitchen problems that can be solved with a kitchen remodel.

Kitchen Dilemmas

1. Inaccessible Layout

If you want a more functional and accessible kitchen, you’ll need a more efficient layout within the room. With the help of a skilled kitchen design team, you can create a floor plan that takes into account the specific needs of your family. By doing so, you’ll have a more accommodating space for foot traffic and a neater look in the kitchen.

2. Inefficient Lighting

Lighting is an essential part of every room in your home and especially the kitchen, where cooking and food preparation take place. You can maximize your kitchen lighting by incorporating brighter LED or CFL lights into the design. If you want natural light to flow into your kitchen, install large sliding windows or sliding patio doors. Since you can open these windows or doors, home remodel experts agree that they promote proper air circulation in the room as well.

3. Insufficient Storage

A lack of storage space is one of the most stressful things you can deal with in a kitchen. When it comes to determining storage needs, you can start by taking inventory of your kitchen and decluttering your belongings. This allows you to focus on the things that really matter. Common storage solutions to consider include an under-sink pullout, under-counter kitchen island cabinets, open shelving and a walk-in pantry. You can consult a kitchen designer and let them create visuals and mockups that will enable you to plan storage space.

4. Poor Ventilation

In the kitchen, poor ventilation around the stove area can result in issues with smoke, steam and stains. If this is the case, upgrade the exhaust fan and/or range hood in your kitchen. These fixtures work in tandem to improve the air quality in the room when cooking.
