Upgrade a dated kitchen

Posted by Bob Bulmer on Thu 10th July 2008 at 06:00 AM, Filed in DIY Adding Value Tips

Probably one of the biggest added value options you can consider, is to improve a dated kitchen.

I know that it’s the first thing my wife looks for in a new home and it certainly can be a deal breaker when you come to sell.

Some quick to implement, ideas for breathing new life into a tired kitchen:

• Replace existing work surfaces.

• Install new, contemporary handles to units.

• Resurface the floor.

• If you don’t have budget to replace the cooker and hob - consider having it professionally cleaned. You might be surprised how well they come up.

• For next to nothing you can buy and install a new sink and drainer.

• Repaint the unit doors.
