Kitchen Renovation - The Perfect Christmas Gift

How was your Thanksgiving? Surely it was as busy I am imagining, but that seems to be part of the tradition. But along with all of the rushing around, the Signature Kitchens family hopes you had an enjoyable holiday full of friends, family and good food.

Now that we have one holiday down, it's time to fully turn your attention to Christmas - arguably the biggest holiday of the year.

Kitchen Renovation in Northern Virginia

Kitchen renovation is a perfect Christmas gift to yourself. There is no better way to spruce up your home than to renovate the room that has the most foot traffic, and is often the most-used. Especially during the holidays, your kitchen is working overtime and the wear and tear from the busiest season of the year can leave a lasting impression on your kitchen. Don't go another year with a kitchen that needs an update!

Christmas is also a great time for kitchen renovation in Northern Virginia for homeowners that are looking to sell in the spring and summer months. The kitchen is usually the most visibly dated room of the home and homeowners often choose to update this room specifically for its high return on investment and its ability to sell a home.

Thanksgiving and Your Kitchen

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and families everywhere are making last minute preparations for the biggest dinner of the year. As friends and family gather around the dinner table in a week, think back and remember the time you spent in your kitchen. Were there elements of your current kitchen that were an inconvenience to you? Things that could have been updated to streamline the chaos? It may be time for kitchen remodeling. 

Kitchen Design Ideas

Since Thanksgiving is one of the busiest times of the year for the kitchen, it should be fairly easy to identify the elements of your kitchen that are an inconvenience. Maybe things would be easier to manage with more storage, or perhaps an island would have been an enormous help. 

Whatever it is, this time of the year is a perfect opportunity to pick up some kitchen design ideas for yourself. No one knows your kitchen better than you do, and we can help customize your space to make it more manageable, convenient and customized to meet your personal needs.   

Thanksgiving is just one of the holidays around the corner. Soon meal upon meal will be cooked up in your kitchen, which is why now is a great time to consider kitchen remodeling. For all of your kitchen remodeling needs, contact Signature Kitchens in Northern Virginia! 

The Holiday Season is the Busiest Time of the Year for Kitchens

The holiday season is right around the corner, and homeowners throughout the DC metro area are preparing and updating their homes with kitchen remodeling projects to accommodate friends and family.

A Once-a-Year Opportunity

Kitchens are certainly the most used room in a home during the holiday season; it's a 3 month span of endless meals and countless guests, making the kitchen the hub of entertainment in every home. With so many different roles to play, it's no wonder that kitchens throughout the area are being updated during the winter months more than any other time of the year.

Why Kitchen Remodeling Now?

Homeowners spend more time indoors and their kitchens are working overtime to keep up. This is when homeowners begin to distinguish the likes and dislikes of their kitchens and consider kitchen remodeling or kitchen renovation. They begin to understand what they could really use or need. They can envision a kitchen that can better serve their family, one that can entertain guests, and a kitchen that serves as the multi-functional room that so many home buyers are now seeking.

Kitchen Renovation in Northern Virginia

Have you started slowly moving indoors yet? Although fall is in full effect in Northern Virginia, the nights and mornings are often chilly and sometimes just plain cold. In fact, we are only weeks away from Thanksgiving and soon we’ll be watching the citizens of New York celebrating the parade in the streets of Manhattan from the warmth of our homes in Northern Virginia.

This all means one thing: you have little time to get your kitchen renovation project up and running!

Kitchen renovation in Northern Virginia is extremely popular. Homeowners are constantly updating their kitchens to eventually sell their home, update the home they just bought, or just to accommodate their current lifestyles.

Whatever the reason may be, kitchen renovation is a great way to transform your home and add value to your home’s listing price. Having your project done before the holidays arrive is a tremendous help as it allows you to better accommodate your guests, prepare meals, and entertain around your fantastic new kitchen upgrades.

Remodeling for the Holidays

It’s no mystery that the holiday season can be one of the busiest times of the year. With Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s all within a month and a half of one another, families are moving nonstop preparing meals, visiting relatives and eating meals, and running to the grocery store preparing to prepare meals. That’s a lot of meals. Mix that in with the meals consumed the 5 month long holiday – football season – and that’s a lot of time spent preparing meals for a lot of different people.

The holiday season not only puts stress on homeowners, but it also takes its toll on your kitchen.

If your kitchen has suffered through countless holiday seasons already, it may be time to think about kitchen renovation or kitchen remodeling before Thanksgiving strikes. Whether your cabinets are beginning to show their age or because you’ve spent too much time fighting with that broken silverware drawer, the fall is a perfect time to update your kitchen.

Going Green: Kitchen Renovation Ideas

Keeping up with the latest kitchen design trends can be a fun process. New designs are constantly emerging and everything from the economy and location of your home can impact the overall style of a newly built home.

One of the hottest topics for the last several years is “going green.” We hear about it from every company under the sun as businesses shift towards environmentally-friendly products and manufacturing processes.

Kitchen Renovation Ideas for “Going Green”

A trend that continues to gain more steam is incorporating renewable or recyclable products into home building, according to zillow.com. Homeowners are now requesting flooring materials that are environmentally-friendly. The most common solution to that request is bamboo. Since bamboo is considered grass and grows rapidly, it is also considered a renewable option for flooring, and a kitchen renovation idea worth remembering.

Going Green with Cabinet Installation

Gone are the days of lugging armfuls of plastic bottles and cans out to the green recycle bin in your garage. With a society that is more sensitive to recycling and reusing than ever before, homeowners are finding new ways to incorporate the process into their homes through cabinet installation. Separate receptacles for recycling are now hiding underneath kitchen islands and unassuming cabinets. Often found next to the trash can inside the cabinets, recycling bins are conveniently located and at the top of your mind while you dispose of waste.

Incorporating the going green process into your kitchen renovation ideas can be a great benefit to the environment and your home. For all of your home’s cabinet installation and kitchen renovation needs, visit Signature Kitchens in Haymarket, Virginia.

Kitchen Renovation Ideas: The Trends are Shifting!

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about some of the latest trends in kitchen remodeling. With such a dramatic shift in the housing market, the way our country is building and using homes has dramatically changed over the years. With this post, I hope to give you a few more kitchen renovation ideas and keep you educated on the latest trends.

Zillow.com cites another big change in kitchen remodeling. Separate dining rooms and living rooms are becoming extinct as homeowners are requesting more open floor plans. As a child, and even now, I know of very few families who still eat around the table in their dining room. In my eyes, the dining room has become just as formal as the “formal living room.” It’s hardly ever used as families are busier than ever, and do not have time to set up an elaborate meal. If they are eating together, it’s most often around the kitchen table.

An open floor plan appears to be more “free” and welcoming. If the kitchen is the central hub of the home, why not enjoy your meals in it, too? Keep this tip filed under your kitchen renovation ideas.

Kitchen Remodeling for Baby Boomers

Home building is starting to reflect the needs of the Baby Boomer generation. Having been settled in their home, these homeowners are looking towards kitchen remodeling to bring new life to their house. With that in mind, their kitchen remodeling requests are often for accessibility, wider doorways, and even lower countertops.

If you have no plans to move out of your home, remember some of these kitchen renovation ideas as you take the next step towards your kitchen remodeling project.
