Renovation of the kitchen completely, especially the elderly at home, and can sometimes be a daunting task. Considerations of structural integrity must be preserved, and I was never really sure what that will be run in at the start of the break walls. Older homes can have special problems of the unseen, such as water, leading to damage and mold behind walls, remove the rotted floor of the leak of the wires of the unseen or neglected and sub-standard and can be found. When planning for the renovation and city laws and regulations must be adhered to, leading often to another account. Remember, when you are finished with your project, you stick with it, and there is no going back. The focus will be in this article about whether he could do to renew or new construction. We will discuss considerations and options and typical costs for each of the renovation and new construction.
The cost of renovation
The cost of renovating the kitchen will depend on many factors. It depends on where you live, the age of your home, of course, limits of your budget. There is no absolute number of per square foot for renovation of the kitchen. Nevertheless, the figures show the ball park of research that you can expect to pay somewhere between 125 dollars to 225 dollars per square foot.

What needs to be done
Of renewal, especially if house was built before 1950, there are certain issues that you may have to deal with it. First, you must rent a large bowl to remove the waste, in addition to the cost.

Cost of new construction
In the middle of Michigan where I live, and new construction costs will vary. Prices range from 75 dollars to 130 dollars depending on the contractor who to talk to him. Here is where you need to get a calculator and make some decisions. I thought and quickly made to build a contractor in 75 per square foot is the best option. Is not necessarily so! He believes the old "you get what you pay for" and believe in new construction than anywhere else. Building and charges 75 dollars per square foot, B Building 130 dollars. Builder will accurately code and nothing else, so you end up with the minimum required by law.

The new building, you will have the expense of new electrical installations, and new health will need to be run. Building codes require that this extends from the source. You can not simply paste the old wires and make it work, nor do the same with plumbing. In the latest houses This is not a big problem. In old houses, however, you may experience difficulty in construction with the construction of the old and the older plumbing and wiring. GFI plugs and wires the foundations need to be used in your new kitchen. There are specific ways in which must be installed, and require a licensed electrician for installation.
What about the old kitchen?
I had decided that the new construction is cheaper and will give you what you want. Old kitchen, however, must be dealt with after the end of the new.
