Kitchen Cabinets

Are your kitchen cabinets up to date?

At Handyman Connection of Ottawa, we firmly believe that the kitchen is the true heart of the home – a communal space where the family gathers to cook, eat and share their meals and experiences. While many people focus on the cooker, kitchen islands and other kitchen paraphernalia, we believe that kitchen cabinets are an underrated star – are your cabinets good enough, or is there room for improvement?

One of the best upgrades you can give to your cabinets is to increase their efficiency. Spice racks and Lazy Susans are commonplace – but do any of your cabinets utilize a pullout tray? This simple kitchen hack means that you won’t have to poke around in semi-darkness anymore, and also makes organization and cleaning a lot easier.

If you have false cabinet fronts for narrow spaces, why not transform them into a useful space? You can easily customize these to store thin muffin tins and cookie sheets – or even a hidden spice rack.

If you’re tired of searching for your cutlery and equipment in a disorganized drawer, a customized drawer could be the answer to your prayers. Using wood drawer inserts, instead of plastic trays, you can designate a space for everything – a knife slot, a fork spot, a spoon spot and personalized spots for equipment. This is a great way to move towards the ultimate clutter-free kitchen.

If you’re looking to hide your appliances, false cabinet fronts can easily be installed on your kitchen appliances, using a matching cabinet cover. This simple upgrade takes the focus away from your dishwasher and cooker, letting the eye settle on the design of the kitchen.

You can also use colour to give your kitchen cabinets a new lease of life. Do you have glass-fronted cabinets? A great way to make these pop is to paint the interior in a bright colour. This extra splash of colour in your kitchen makes it more attractive, and, with the right colour, can really enhance the colour scheme of your kitchen.

If you’re thinking of upgrading your kitchen, but lack the budget for a complete kitchen overhaul, why not target your kitchen cabinets? It’s an inexpensive upgrade that will give you multiple benefits. Call up Handyman Connection of Ottawa today and book a consultation and estimate session, and we’ll send a professional to your home to discuss your ideas. You are under no obligations to book our services – just to find out how we can help you to make your kitchen even better.
