Partnership: Renovation Contractor-Kitchen Designer
A renovation contractor is akin to the Director of a play, bringing all the contributions of each of the players into a cohesive final product to realize the vision, pleasure and satisfaction of a homeowner. One big difference though is that there is no dressed rehearsal, and the component parts must fit together and join as a whole in one big finale. A good contractor has the practice and experience needed to deliver. A good contractor also has good partnerships. One essential partnership is a good working relationship with a Kitchen Designer. These are the experts in cabinetry, which is a knowledge set that can be helpful for a number of home renovations. Cabinetry is key to kitchens, but also built-in wall cabinets for living room, family room or basement renovations. Hiring a renovation contractor with an established partnership with a kitchen designer is a huge benefit to a renovation project. i. Cabinets can make or break satisfaction with a kitchen renovation. Appliances can be changed. Faucets, taps and hardware can be replaced. But cabinets are the majority of the renovation cost and need to be thought through carefully. ii. Use of space and efficiency in work area rests on the configuration of the cabinetry. iii. Cabinetry determines placement of electrical, lighting, venting, plumbing and even flow of movement through the space. iv. Cabinets and shelving are used to display or contain the objects of our lives, and thereby create and support the desired feeling of the living space. Given the integral nature of cabinetry in many renovation projects, hiring a contractor with established good working relationships with well-known and highly reputable kitchen designers can be advantageous to ensure satisfaction with and creation of the desired vision as a homeowner.
