Now more than any other time is the best time for some cool changes and some serious budgeting.  With the worldwide economy in disarray, big New York City living can pose a lot more stress than that caused by the usual hustles and bustles.  Whether you are in Long Island, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Staten Island, or Queens, a home improvement project would prove to be a great idea.  What better area to spruce up than the most frequented one?  Kitchen remodeling would prove to be a win-win investment even on a budget if you play your cards well.    


No matter how small your budget is, you can definitely bring out the most attractive as well as functional kitchen remodeling result.  Careful planning is the key.  Without one, the cost can easily spiral and be out of hand in no time. As the money you can dispose of is limited, your project plan should start with setting the budget and everything else should follow in accordance to this.


With the versatility of its functions, the heart of every home holds a lot of features and areas that may be viable to undertake in your planned kitchen remodeling.  What you have to do is go through your kitchen and consider which things need more attention or which you want to be changed first.  It is always practical to improve what obviously needs improvement first than going for which you want to be altered first.  If it turns out that the space needs more than just one task to get everything in its most appealing and functional state, then set priorities and tackle each in different phases as minor kitchen remodeling projects.  Set schedules that jives with the savings you would be able to accumulate.  By the time you are finished with your list, these minor projects add up to achieving the overall result you envisioned.


But if your evaluation of the kitchen turns out lesser to no issues that need to be resolved then you could consider doing kitchen remodeling projects with the most impact but requiring lesser costs.  If most everything is working properly, some of your options include:


o    Kitchen cabinet refacing or refinishing,


o    Painting, stenciling or wallpapering,


o    Backsplash tiles addition,


o    New lighting fixtures,


o    Window treatments,


o    Installing energy-efficient cooktop and wall oven,


o    Selective replacing of appliances starting with the most outdated,


o    Changing or refinishing countertops, and


o    Changing or refinishing flooring.


If you now have the idea where to start, and the planned kitchen remodeling project excellently fits the limited budget, you then have to consider integrating the key essentials to any home improvement project’s success and these are product and craftsmanship.  When thinking of cutting costs, your best bet at giving your money the most value is through spending wisely.  When shopping for materials or products or looking to hire a contractor, do not readily give in to the cheapest choice.  Scour the market for promotions and discount sales, with the economic situation; taking advantage of high quality for less is easier today.
