What to Consider When Looking for a New Kitchen
There’s a good reason many people think of the kitchen as the heart of the home. It always seems to be the central hub of activity at parties and family get togethers or it can be the ideal quiet place in which to sit and enjoy a good book. Estate agents will also tell you improving the kitchen can be one of the best ways to increase the value of your home.
But most people who embark on a kitchen transformation aren’t motivated by money - they want to modernise a tired old kitchen or improve its layout to better suit their needs. Of course, some people will worry they can’t afford a makeover or a full kitchen refit. But it needn’t cost the earth to create your ideal kitchen and Dream Doors is committed to working with you to make it a reality.
Which look is right for you?
Only you know the answer to this question. Do you favour wood or quartz finishes? Granite or laminate? High gloss or matt? Classic kitchens like the Ludlow work well in cream, while blue is a striking choice for the Verona range and the Milano in white lends the room a light and airy feeling. There are many options and the end goal is unique for everyone. For inspiration, start here. Sitting down with a colour wheel and maybe a sample door in situ is a great idea. But a better one is to arrange a free, no obligation home visit from one of our design professionals and let us help you work out which kitchen is right for you.
What are the options?
Designing a kitchen is an adventure in possibility. Our kitchen designer service is great for visualising the styles, colours and materials which will suit you and your home. Whether you have an L-shaped, U-shaped or galley kitchen - with or without an island - you can use the designer service to see different colours and materials with just the click of a mouse. It really is that simple to use. Make a note of the colours and materials you like, contact your local showroom and arrange an appointment to see the products we offer in person.
Cost-Effective Innovation
If your kitchen is looking a little the worse for wear and you can’t stand it for another second, we have the solution. Dream Doors’ innovative service allows you to keep your existing carcases and replace just the doors and worktops. This kind of makeover could help you save up to 50% of the cost of a new fully fitted kitchen.
Out with the Old
If you have your heart set on a totally new kitchen that’s tailored for you then we can design and deliver the perfect solution. Dream Doors can advise you every step of the way. Just to show you what’s possible, we have arranged a section of before and after shots which show off our kitchen makeover philosophy.
The advantage of this approach is that there are no compromises and anything is possible.
