Learn how to install a tile backsplash, swap out kitchen faucets, install kitchen cabinets, and more. It’s helpful to learn as much as you can before you start purchasing materials, demoing the old kitchen, or allocating your budget. If you are working on an older home, there are always surprises lurking behind the walls, floors, and ceilings. Make sure you know as much as you can now so you are ready to pivot for what lies ahead.
And if you aren’t confident about executing a kitchen remodel on your own, consult with a few local licensed contractors who are recommended by neighbors or a local building trade organization like National Kitchen and Bath Association or National Association of the Remodeling Industry.
