What Can You Expect From Your First Kitchen Consultation?

     Here at Hamilton Building Services, we pride ourselves on our in-house kitchen and bath design. Whether the consultation will take place in our office, or at your home for renovation, the complimentary consultation will handle most of the design process.      When it's new construction, we'll talk about the layout as it shows in the plan. Our kitchen designer will ask you what you want most out of your kitchen. How you plan on using the space and take examples from you of what kitchens you like the most. Kitchen design isn't just about making it look good, it's about the personalities that will live there. How the customer will use the space for gatherings, or just on a day to day basis. When it's a renovation, we'll see where the current kitchen is, and how you currently use it. If it's an in-home consultation, we will lay out the design as it develops so you can get a feel for how it will be.      A common question Jacob, ou...

Prep Your Kitchen For Resale

If you're looking to sell your house anytime soon, you should take into account the return on investment that an updated kitchen can give back to you. The kitchen of a home is by far the best place for you to put money into, and other than obvious problematic issues (like basic functionalities working properly), it's one of the first things home buyers will notice. Flooring - Hardwood floors are the way to go if you're ripping up that old linoleum. They go with everything, and are an attractive selling point. If hardwood is out of your price range there are tons of new types of flooring out there that mimic the look of hardwood with a more appealing price tag. Cabinetry - Brand new cabinets are going to run you thousands of dollar without a blink of an eye. Beautiful cabinetry is a huge selling point, and proves to be a great return on investment, but if this just is not an option for you, make the effort to spruce up yourexisting cabinets with a fresh coat of pain...

Benefits of Custom Cabinetry

When deciding on what type of cabinetry your new kitchen will have, there is a lot to evaluate. You have the option to just go out and purchase typical, old box store cabinets that just need to be installed, or you have the option to go semi-custom or fully custom. So, how do you know which to go with? You evaluate how much time you'll spend in your kitchen, what you'll actually be doing in there (cooking or entertaining), and if you need to take into account resale value.  Although fully custom cabinetry is in a higher pricepoint, the benefits that accompany this custom feature are important to know about as they are a valued part of any home. Hamilton is proud to offer customers a wide array of custom cabinetry options.  Call our office to get started today! (855) 871-2232
