Q. I don't know if I need the pull-out waste baskets and the pullout pot drawers, etc. I've never had them before, so why do I need them now? But I don't want to regret it later just to save a few bucks.
If you had your kitchen remodeled, were any of these extras something you wouldn't want to live without?

A. i dont care for the rubbish bin in the pull out thingy
makes it hard to keep clean with all that cage shelf thing...its not easy to wipe down you really have to get on your hands in knees and wipe down each little metal bar...i would rather just have a shelf to wipe down...i am a little crazy about keeping that area clean
i love the special thingy drawer for your spices
its right next to my stove and the spice jars are sort of in these lay back thingys and so easy to find the right one quickly and easy to keep clean. i like the stand up pantry with the doors that have storage.
could i live with out all of them? yes, i dont find any worth the cost ...its fun for the first couple months but now i find with some convinces comes more troubles in cleaning ease
oh but i would get some glass doors that makes the kitchen look good i think
cheers

What is the best way/place to get an entire kitchen remodel done?
Q. Where should we go to get the best possible kitchen remodel done? Criteria:
1. Budget
2. Service
3. Choice
4. Timing
1. Budget
2. Service
3. Choice
4. Timing
A. First do your homework...You should not even think about hiring anyone until you know : What exact cabinets youwant,what sink you want,counter tops,faucets.....appliances, Etc warming drawers to keep food warm, wine fridge,microwave drawer,..........If you know nothing of the above spend some money on a "kitchen designer". A designer would be a good start and they should be able to give you a "ballpark " figure on how much project would cost. Next get estimates from local builder or remodeler. "GET REFRENCES" Check if they have INSURANCE.!!!!!!!Good luck
Exploring Options for uising a General Contractor for a kitchen remodel?
Q. We are considering a kitchen remodel. We've hired a general contractor and a kitchen designer for the DESIGN PHASE (a seperate agreement will be presented for the BUILD PHASE). We would like to explore other paths in lieu of hiring a GC.
We are interested in hearing from homeowners who have done kitchen remodels as to the options they pursued? How many served as their own GC's? How did that go? How many worked with the local home center for cabinets, floors, etc and left the structural stuff to someone else? How did that work? We're not interested in being our own GC, but there has got to be a less expensive way! We're making quality decisions and downgrading OUR choices for OUR kitchen just to pay the GC's fee and overhead costs. For example, we did all the work to select over $10K worth of appliances (which will be delivered and installed) and the GC will stand to earn quite a bit for what appears little work (enough for another appliance). Are there any other options?

A. best thing is go to places research your materials price them out & compair prices through differant places to save money, then go home measure then measure again! sometimes sandpaper, new paint & hardwear, with some ellbow grease goes a long way man save alot of money to then you can buy new appliances lol to go with new look!
