How to Prepare for a Kitchen Remodel

A kitchen remodel is an exciting prospect. You’ve picked out your new counters, cabinets, appliances, tile, and everything in between. But as exciting as having your new kitchen will be, you have to deal with the demolition and construction first. When you contract Max 13 Construction to remodel your kitchen, you can rest assured that we will cause as little disruption to your home as possible. Even still, you will be without a kitchen for a little while. To make sure that your family stays fed while you wait for your new kitchen, you need to plan ahead.

Follow these tips to prepare your home and your family for your kitchen remodel.

Carefully pack up your existing kitchen.

As exciting as using your new kitchen will be, you’ll have to set up and organize it first. The best way to make that process go smoothly is to carefully and thoughtfully pack up your existing kitchen. Label every box and storage bin so that you can find what you’re looking for when it’s time to unpack and set up. It will also make your life much easier while the remodel is underway if you need to locate anything.

Set up a temporary kitchen area.

Even if you don’t have a kitchen, you still have to eat somehow. Work out in advance where you can set up a temporary kitchen area. Smaller and portable appliances like your crockpot, toaster oven, and microwave are usually enough to get by while your kitchen is under construction. If it’s warm enough, set up your grill and cook outside. And don’t forget to keep plates, cups, and silverware handy!

Plan your meals ahead of time.

While there will be things you can’t predict, you will have a pretty accurate idea of how long the remodel will take. To cut down on the stress of where dinner is going to come from every night, plan out in as much detail as possible where you’ll be eating. If you can cook in advance and freeze meals, that will save you a lot of time and some money. But there will be some days when you need a break, so scope out good restaurants and takeout places in your area as well.
