Kitchen remodeling can come with quite a price tag, so you want to do it right the first time. Booher Remodeling Company doesn’t want to waste your time or money, so we work hard to avoid some of these common kitchen design flaws many home remodelers or DIY enthusiasts make.

1. Go overboard.

Many people get so excited about kitchen remodeling that they try to include too many unique or creative features. However, too much is…well, too much. Prioritize kitchen design elements that are important to you, and be willing to say goodbye to the others. They may have looked great in someone else’s kitchen, but that doesn’t mean they need to be in yours.

2. Go big when you don’t have the space.

If you don’t have money or space to expand, work with the space you have in your kitchen design. Don’t try to cram an industrial refrigerator or a small desk into an already-small kitchen. Work with the space that you have, and focus on maximizing its potential and bringing out the best features in the room.

3. Fill all the walls with cabinets.

Storage is great, and our design team works hard to give you the amount of cabinetry you need for your kitchen to be functional. However, your kitchen walls need room to breathe. Don’t fill every inch with cabinets so that you can leave room for wall art, blank space, or even a window or two for natural light.

4. Choose cheap cabinetry.

When you’re investing thousands of dollars into your space, make that money count by installing quality cabinetry. Let’s face it: Kitchen cabinets can really take a beating. Spend the extra money to get quality cabinets that will last for years to come.
