Most astute homeowners know that a kitchen remodel is the one home improvement project that comes close to paying for itself at resale. It's also one of the more expensive home improvement projects you can undertake. There are, however, some modest improvements homeowners can make for less than $1,000 that can make a kitchen look brand new.
"There are some people who spend high five figures on kitchen remodels and the results are amazing," said Jeremy Vest, owner of DirectBuy of DuPage County. "Yet if your budget isn't quite that big, smaller improvements can also create a significant upgrade without a major dent in your bank account."
Vest recommends the following:
Adding a backsplash Whether it's a bright color or interesting pattern, a backsplash can transform the feel and style of a kitchen. For the average kitchen, that could mean purchasing as little as 20 square feet of tile.
Replace fixtures Replacing your current drab fixtures with glass or ceramic knobs or pulls can add elegance and style to your kitchen. The best part? These are fairly easy to install on your own and you can do it in less than an hour.
Kitchen sink The sink is more of a focal point in the kitchen than you think. Replacing a worn faucet head with a shiny new head polishes off a kitchen with new sophistication. It's not too difficult to find an entry level faucet in a variety of styles for under $150.
Flooring While most may consider this an expensive undertaking, refinishing a hardwood floor can be completed in less than two days at a reasonable cost through sanding and refinishing. Likewise, if you have tile or ceramic, professionally cleaning and sealing is affordable and can bring an old floor back to life.
Changing lighting fixtures - A lighting fixture can transform a kitchen and there is no end to the options and price points for a new chandelier, sconce or fixture. Please consult an electrician if you have no experience with wiring lights.
"As a rule, kitchens seem to draw a crowd and, consequently, show wear and tear a little sooner than most homeowners would like," said Vest. "By undertaking one or more of these improvements you can capture the effect of remodel without the cost."
