According to the National Association of Homebuilders, kitchen remodeling projects are the 2nd most-demanded home renovations, which amounted to 78% of last year’s total home improvement projects alone!
So, if you’re planning on renovating your kitchen, you’re not alone. However, a standard kitchen remodeling project can cost up to $23,166!
Not all of us have that kind of money lying around! But does that mean we give up on our dreams to remodel the heart of our house?
Absolutely not!
It just means we have to find cheaper and smarter hacks to remodel our kitchen on a budget!
Stick to the Floor Plan!
The best way to remodel your kitchen without racking up your costs is to not disturb your kitchen layout. If you stick to the general framework of how your kitchen was initially laid out, you’ll save a lot of breaking-down and putting-back-together costs.
Moreover, this way, you keep the damage to the minimum, so if you run out of capital in the middle of a project, you won’t be left with the ruins of what you once called your kitchen!
Spruce Up the Cabinets!
Your kitchen is the heart of your house, but the heart of this heart is its cabinets! Rather than going all out with a remodel; start small and redo your cabinetry. Doing your cabinets helps you organize your cooking space and even maximize your storage so that your utensils and spice jars aren’t cluttering your counter space!

But how can you maximize your cabinet space without actually remodeling your kitchen space?
You get pull out shelves! That’s right! Installing shelving solutions that let you access the very back of your cabinetry and help you organize your things categorically. You can install them in your blind corner cabinets that are usually left unutilized due to their inefficient placement in the kitchen plan.
Slide out shelves and pull out pantry shelves can also be custom made to fit your cabinet space without any hassle!
You can also get useful kitchen drawer inserts that can help you organize your utensils and cutlery, giving your kitchen a cleaner and more organized feel!
Do It Yourself!
When you remodel your kitchen by yourself, you not only get to learn on-the-job but you also save up a lot on hiring a professional to do the project for you. Moreover, a DIY kitchen remodel project can actually be a lot of fun, if the whole family comes together and does the project as a unit!
It’ll be a great bonding experience and you’ll gain a new appreciation for your local handyman!

Moreover, we also provide installation hardware and fitting accessories to help you install our multi-purpose slide out shelves in no time!
