How To Survive Your Kitchen Remodel

It’s not inconceivable for you to go a week without cooking anything on the stove. Between the microwave and take out you can certainly have plenty of enjoyable meals. But what if that week stretched on for a few weeks and you lost use of your refrigerator? That might happen as you go through a kitchen remodel. This is the type of project that can cause major upheaval around the house but it would certainly be worth it if you get your dream kitchen at the end. Here’s how you can survive your kitchen remodel:

Set Up a Temporary Kitchen

You’ll need to set up a temporary kitchen. That could be in the dining room, living room or even out in the garage. What you’ll need for that temporary kitchen depends a lot on what you can do without. For instance, you might be able to relocate your refrigerator for the duration of the remodel in another room. You just might have to do without the icemaker hook up. A smaller kitchen can be set up on a spare table using just a microwave, coffee maker and Crockpot. As for all your pantry items, you might want to sort them in plastic storage bins for the duration.

Think About Alternatives For Dishwashing

You might not realize how often you use your sink until the water is cut off. If you have a utility sink in a mudroom or basement, then you could certainly adapt that. A bathtub can also work but that can become a bit cumbersome. The most effective alternative is to switch to plastic and paper utensils. Yes, you will be rough in it for a few weeks.

Hang Plastic Walls

There’s going to be a lot of dust and noise created during the remodeling work. It’s a good idea to ask your contractor to hang plastic walls separating the work area for the rest of the house. That should keep the dust from spreading.

Go On Vacation

You could go on vacation while the remodeling work is underway. Time it right and you’ll return to a finish kitchen. Short of that, you could also rent an RV and simply park it in the driveway.

Do Your Own Demolition

This isn’t so much a tip for surviving your kitchen remodel but cutting corners. The money you could save on a crew day could go towards a new stainless steel refrigerator or oven. You could do your own demolition with a little help from some friends. Junk King Birmingham is a perfect partner for this endeavor. They’ll be able to send out a crew and truck that will clear up all that construction waste that you create. That’s very important because you want the professional crew to have a clean site and you want to remove the hazardous materials immediately. You can survive your kitchen remodel with a little planning and a little help from Junk King Birmingham.
