Upgrading Your Kitchen on a Budget
When thinking about a complete kitchen upgrade or redesign – homeowners often jump straight into thinking that the project is going to include ripping out parts of their kitchen and starting again. It’s understandable that this may put off people wanting to upgrade their kitchen space but this is simply not the case! There are a number of different ways that you can upgrade your kitchen space on a budget without having to spend a huge amount on ripping out and redesigning your kitchen.
Of course, it’s important to bear in mind that if you do find that your kitchen just isn’t fit for purpose and you don’t like the style or layout of your kitchen – you are going to have to consider hiring a kitchen design company to design and then remove your current kitchen. It can be understandably frustrating when your kitchen does not suit your needs, your style or your requirements. We hope that some of our tips can help!

Repainting Your Kitchen Space
A bucket or two of paint can be as cheap as £20 and this can completely transform the look and feel of your kitchen space in its entirety. This is a simple way to avoid spending a lot of money on your kitchen and is probably the cheapest way to transform your kitchen space. You can use a combination of paints and other colours to ensure that your kitchen is the style that you want. Painters and decorators are going to be cheaper than redesigning an entire kitchen area so don’t be afraid to contact the professionals if you aren’t too confident in your skills with a brush.
Changing the Handles of Your Kitchen & Kitchen Cabinets
Changing the handles of your kitchen cabinets and other areas of your kitchen is another cheaper way of changing the look and feel of your kitchen. This will also change the functions of your kitchen overall as you are able to change from handles to handless designs for example. This is a great way to make simple yet elegant changes to your kitchen and we highly recommend that you consider these upgrades if you are looking to reduce costs.
Changing the Lighting of Your Kitchen
It’s highly important for photography and films but it’s also really important for your kitchen as well. The correct lighting can completely change the ambience of your kitchen space and allows you to highlight different areas of your kitchen. Again – upgrading your lighting is a cheaper way to transform how your kitchen looks and feels. Consider adding skylights or other types of lighting in your kitchen area to wow and impress your guests!
Get Creative With Your Kitchen Decorations
The way that you decorate your kitchen is also important and you can combine this method with one of our other methods mentioned above. Adding artwork, labelled storage pots and jars as well as adding ornaments or other mountings to the wall is another great way to upgrade your kitchen space on a budget. Other decorations may include additional lighting such as fairy lights if you so wish as well as sculptures, ornaments. There are a large number of decorations that you can add which will also personalise your kitchen space further.
