Benefits of Modernizing Your Kitchen

Not sure if you’re ready to invest to modernize your kitchen? When you consider the following benefits you’ll wonder why you waited so long to do it.

How to Modernize Kitchen

Upgrades and enhancements to modernize the kitchen of your Winnipeg home include the following:

• Upgrade appliances: After listening to your household’s unique needs, Vulcan Construction will recommend (and install) modern appliances that will improve the look of your kitchen while at the same time optimize cooking, dining, and cleaning experiences. These SMART appliances will also be notably more energy efficient than the ones you currently have which as we mentioned above, will decrease your annual utility expenditure.
• Upgrade to LED lighting: Vulcan Construction will recommend (and install) recessed LED lighting systems that will improve the look of your kitchen and will optimize kitchen activities. These SMART LED installations will also will decrease your annual utility expenditure.
• Upgrade cabinets: This will improve aesthetics through new styles and finishes and will increase functionality with better storage solutions, and ultimately make the space feel more open and current.
• Upgrade countertops: Replacement with modern materials creates surfaces that are more durable and easier to maintain, while new technologies can add convenience like integrated charging stations.
• Upgrade flooring: The replacement with modern materials and finishes creates walking surfaces that are more durable, safer, and easier to maintain.
• Add a modern backsplash: This will modernize your kitchen by updating its primary focal point, incorporating new colors and textures, and introducing modern materials such as a large-format tile, glass, or a continuous slab. It also adds a cohesive, updated feel to the space, which can make the kitchen appear brighter, larger, and more upscale and/or customized to your household’s personality.
• Upgrade paint: A new coat of paint will modernize your kitchen by providing a fresh, updated look, which can make the space feel brighter, larger, and more sophisticated (as desired). Painting cabinets can also be a cost-effective alternative to replacing cabinets (see above) that still dramatically changes the style. High-quality kitchen-specific paint also offers increased durability against humidity in addition to wear and tear. Further, Vulcan Construction can also apply a type of paint that contains a significantly reduced amount of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) which is healthier, and is generally more durable, easier to clean, and mildew-resistant.
