What to Expect During Your Kitchen Cabinet Installation

If you are planning new construction or a home remodel, kitchen cabinets are likely high on your priority list. Having new cabinets installed is a big home improvement or construction project. Cabinets are going to be a permanent part of your home for years to come, so it pays off to take your time here and make sure you get exactly what you want. In this quick guide, we will look at what to expect during your kitchen cabinet installation.

Make Plans for Old Appliances

According to Better Homes and Gardens, most homeowners opt for a new cabinet installation because they want an updated look to go along with their updated appliances. If this is the case with your project, you need to make sure that you have made plans for your old appliances.

Some contractors will provide haul-away services for you following the removal of your old appliances, but you should not assume that this service is going to be provided for you. You will need to talk with the contractors that will handle your kitchen cabinet installation and find out. If they do not provide this service, then it will be your responsibility to have the appliances removed.

You may opt to resell the appliances if they are still in good working order. If not, they will need to be disposed of properly.

Make Arrangements for Inaccessibility

You need to keep in mind that while the cabinets are being installed, your kitchen may be inaccessible for some time. It's important that you talk with cabinet professionals to find out how long your kitchen will be inaccessible. This allows you and your family to plan accordingly.

Make A Point To Learn About New Cabinet Care

If your new cabinets or countertops will require specialized care, you need to take some time to learn about this. Caring for cabinets and countertops properly will help to lengthen the lifespan of the installation and can also help to increase your home's value as well. You want to make sure you are getting value out of your investment and this is one way you can do that. This is also a good time to learn about your new appliances as well if you're having new appliances installed.
