Selling Your Home in the Spring?

I love the fall weather. It feels great outside (minus the storms). Fall is great for a lot of different reasons: the beginning of the holiday season, football, friends and family, but it also a great time for kitchen remodeling and cabinet installation.

The warmer seasons such as spring and summer are great times to buy and sell homes. Few people want to deal with the stress of moving during the holiday season, and moving furniture and boxes in the cold weather can be a miserable experience.

So why is fall a great time for kitchen remodeling and cabinet installation?

Since homes sell in warmer weather, the fall is a great time to prepare your home. Now is the time to make a list of items that need repair or updating, so your home will sell quickly.

The kitchen is often a room that needs to be updated the most. When they are finally updated, kitchen remodeling projects and new cabinet installation have a phenomenal return on investment. Having an outdated kitchen, and being unable to sell your home may very well be related!

If you plan on selling your home in the spring or summer, think about updating your kitchen with a kitchen remodeling makeover, or new cabinet installation.

Kitchen Design Ideas for Autumn

There is something about Fall that I love and can never quite put my finger on it. After 6 months or so of being outside during spring and summer, the weather does everything it can to force us back inside. But when a home, and especially the kitchen, are decorated for the Fall season, being inside is homey, nostalgic, and even enjoyable. 

Kitchen Design Ideas

Fall colors, especially earth tones, have a comforting quality about them and give us memories of Thanksgiving and good food.

As many home owners in Northern Virginia are preparing for their kitchen remodeling projects before the winter, begin to think about your Fall decorations in the meantime. Once the kitchen remodeling project is complete, you will be left with a completely clean and probably empty kitchen. It’s like a clean slate.

Earth tones are great for placemats, candles, and other little accessories throughout the kitchen. A good friend of mine used small twigs and fake leaves to wrap around candle holders and even chandeliers to give that extra autumn look, and is a great, inexpensive kitchen design idea.

We would love to see how you have decorated your kitchen! Feel free to post any photos to our Facebook wall along with decorating tips and kitchen design ideas.

Kitchen Cabinet Refacing for Football Season!

Football season is finally here! For all of those diehard football fans, this is one of the most exciting times of the year. The fall weather reminds us that football season has finally arrived and fanatics will be glued to their televisions watching their favorite teams compete each and every week.

I love football season. If you’re not a fan of the game, it’s certainly hard to not be a fan of the food. The kitchen is twice as busy with fans running back and forth to the fridge and cabinets grabbing snacks and drinks for hours on end throughout the week.

Football season is also a great time for kitchen cabinet refacing. When there is a large group over at your house this football season, you will soon find out that functionality is everything. Do you need extra storage from your kitchen cabinets? Are there enough kitchen cabinets at all? Are they outdated or even in need of repair?

There are many factors to consider when you’re looking into kitchen cabinet refacing. But most importantly, you need to know that it’s made from a quality product, that it’s durable, that it’s visually exactly what you want, and that it comes at a great price.

All of our products are made with real wood. Each piece is custom built in our manufacturing facility to fit your cabinet frames. And since we manufacture our own product, ship it, and install it through our own company, you are getting great prices and never have to deal with a third party.

School is Back = Assess the Kitchen Damage

It’s hard to believe that summer is officially over! The weather is slowly fading from those brutal 100 degree weeks and school is back in session for students around Northern Virginia.

Now that the kids are finally out of the house for most of the day (depending on their age) it’s time to assess the damage. The kids have been running through the house all summer long leaving a trail of debris in their path. But now that the dust has settled, it’s time to take a look around at the most used room of the home – the kitchen.

Do You Need a Kitchen Remodeling Contractor?

If you have been putting off that kitchen remodeling project all summer because you knew how busy you would be, now is the time to get things done. With the holiday season right around the corner, chances are your kitchen doesn’t have much time before things get truly hectic once again. Kitchen remodeling in Northern Virginia is constantly occurring due to design trends, the housing market, and the unique way of living that can only be found in Northern Virginia.

Don’t Want to Take on a Kitchen Remodeling Project? Consider Cabinet Refacing.

I’ve said it before that kitchen cabinet refacing can completely transform the look and feel of your current kitchen. Since kitchen cabinets take up the most real estate, the rest of the kitchen often caters to the overall design of the cabinets themselves. If you are ready for a new look, consider cabinet refacing and take care of the smaller items down the road.
