Tips on How to Make Your Existing Kitchen More Functional

New kitchen cabinets and kitchen remodels can be a major expense. Here are some ways to make your existing kitchen cabinets and kitchen in general more useful and user friendly.

Pull outs

Adding pull outs to existing base cabinet shelving can not only increase the usability but also make those hard to reach areas actually functional. Kits ranging from around 100 dollars and up can be found at your local home center or of course we can customize any cabinet or shelf to meet your needs.

Pull out trash and recycle bins

Converting an existing base cabinet door, with built in shelving, into a customized trash and recycle bin is a very practical and useful modification to your existing cabinetry. These modifications require some design and fabrication and generally start at 500 dollars and up.

Built in spice racks

The chef of the kitchen will truly appreciate having a custom built spice rack conveniently located next to the range. We can build these into existing base cab and base cab drawers. The prices on these vary widely but we would be happy to give you a free consultation on upgrading your existing kitchen.

Upgrading Your Existing Cabinets vs. Replacing Kitchen Cabinets

Generally speaking the cost of upgrading your existing cabinets in comparison to replacing the kitchen cabinet is mere pennies on the dollar and the enjoyment from having conveniently located accessories will make your kitchen your favorite room in your home.
