For many homes, the kitchen is the center of activity and the household. Because of this, you may want to take on a kitchen remodel to breathe new life into it. However, a kitchen remodel can be a huge undertaking, even for an avid DIYer. To help tackle the project, you should consider enlisting the help of a designer.
When is it time to hire a designer? When you are planning a remodel, you are often filled to the brink with ideas of how you want your kitchen to look. With space, time, and budget constraints, however, not all of those ideas are practical. Designers can help you remodel a kitchen that best suits your needs while avoiding mistakes in remodeling.
One of the chief benefits of getting a designer on board is that you gain access to their wealth of resources and information. An experienced designer would be updated on building codes, design trends, and materials.
When deciding whether or not to work with a designer you should consider the following:
You can visualize what you want your dream kitchen to look like. Yet, you might not be able to express your thoughts. Designers can view pictures you have collected from magazines and showrooms to get an understanding of what you have in mind.
Alternatively, when you do have a clear picture of the things you want to fix in your kitchen (such as outdated appliances and worn finishes), talking with a designer can help you get them done efficiently.
Once your plans are established, the designer will help you determine what you might need to reconsider, give you suggestions, and keep you from choosing form over function.
By getting a good understanding of the relationship between your current kitchen and your lifestyle, designers can let you know what will and won’t work for the remodel.
Pets, family size, kitchen space, accessibility, and personal wants are all factors in your designer’s recommendations. If your tastes typically have you leaning towards large appliances, your designer will inform you if your desires will interfere with other kitchen elements such as cabinetry and space.
A good designer will quickly help you establish what you can and can’t afford. They will also know how to work with your budget for the remodel. By looking at the budget with a designer, you can nix the materials and finishes that will break the bank.
With their experience and tools, a kitchen designer can guide you in creating the kitchen of your dreams. For your next kitchen remodel, save money and time by hiring a designer.
This is a professional company in every sense of the word! We hired them to completely remodel our kitchen when we purchased a 20 year old house. They did an amazing job! They were there when they said they would be. They worked full days with few breaks and the quality of their work was superior. I would definitely recommend them and will use them again on future planned projects!
What a great experience to have such a reliable, professional company come to work in our condo! Zayne was so nice and helped us find the perfect cabinets for our kitchen. Dion, who works for Zayne did a wonderful job in completing the projects. We also had electrical, painting, and additional carpentry completed. Everything went just the way we wanted. We could not be happier. We are also going to get additional pricing for more work that we want to have done in our condo in the future.
This team is absolutely amazing!! I could not be happier with the way my kitchen turned out. I had a vision and they were amazing in building exactly to what I had pictured. They were on time, a pleasure to work with, efficient and kept right on schedule. Kurt made sure that we were happy at every turn and acted immediately on every request. Thank you!!!

I couldn’t have been happier with Zayne and his crew. Zayne presented a clear-cut plan for our project and stuck to it throughout the whole process.

Zayne expresses serious concern about your budget and how to accomplish your ideas without spending unnecessarily. His sub-contractors and suppliers are all equally welcoming and patient when you are working with them to find the cabinetry, trim, stone, paint and other materials that are not “cookie cutter”.
We highly recommend, without reservation, Zayne and Lifestyle Cabinetry and Millwork to anyone with a large or small project.
