Amazing Kitchen Upgrades You’ve Never Thought Of Before
Kitchen Remodeling Dec 22
If you want your kitchen to have a fresh, new look then it might be time to do a remodeling project in your Livonia home. To upgrade its look and functionality, you need to come up with ideas that you might have not thought of before. Seek the help of a kitchen remodeling contractor to come up with inspiration for your space and transform that inspiration into reality. To start off, here are some suggestions for upgrades that can give your space a fresh update.
Add color to the pantry
The pantry is a part of the room that is often overlooked since its main purpose is simply to provide additional storage space. However, if you want a quick upgrade in the appearance of this area, an easy fix is to paint the pantry in a trendy, bold shade. Doing this will add a pop of color and breathe new life into this area.
Create a reading corner
This room isn’t only a place to prepare food. It can also be set up in such a way that it works as a place where people can spend time before or after a meal. If there is a bare corner in this room, you can transform that into a reading corner. Create a book corner complete with a small bookshelf, a table, and a few stools to make it cozier. Aside from having your contractor install the said fixtures, they can paint it with a different color to emphasize that it offers a unique purpose from the rest of the room.
Use a repurposed table
If you have a compact kitchen and a large island isn’t an option, you can opt to use a repurposed table instead. This kind of table has its own rustic and unique character, and it can serve as your island, offering enough countertop space but without overpowering the entire room.
Add more light
If you want to add a dramatic mood to the room, have your contractor install hanging lights or pendant lights. Aside from adding illumination to the area, these lights can also set the mood when you decide to dine in this room.

From start to finish Kurtis was a great company to work with. From the initial contact and design concept with Gregory Holster to the cabinet drop off team, the install team led by project manager Jeff Tuomi and the countertop company, the project was on time and all work was performed beyond expectations. This was greatly appreciated seeing as it was completed on December 23. All the people involved were professional and did an excellent job.
Shanna was our project consultant. Picking out cabinets along with counters can be somewhat overwhelming but her knowledge & experience helped us make the right decisions. Dylan & Juwan unloaded truck & Dylan check off ship ticket to make sure all boxes were accounted for. Courteous & pleasant to talk to…nice job of stacking everything neatly in our garage. We couldn't be more pleased with the service & so happy with our kitchen
We recently worked with Lauren on cabinetry for a master bathroom renovation. She was great to work on the design and selections. Lauren was efficient and responsive from cabinet selection through ordering. Our overall installation was smooth. We had some unforeseen circumstances impacting our ability to accept delivery of our cabinets on the initial agreed upon date. Kurtis was very accommodating in rescheduling delivery given our project challenges. We couldn't be happier with our cabinets for this project.
We had complete renovations to our kitchen and main bathroom. From start to finish, the design with Shanna was exactly what we asked for and Jeff stayed on top of the renovations, communicating each step of the way. Every worker was professional and the final product is elegant and functional. We were very happy with Kurtis and would choose Shanna and Jeff again.
We love our new kitchen! Kurtis Kitchen & Bath did an outstanding job, and Adrian at the Clarkston location was exceptional to work with—creative, patient, and really listened to what we wanted. The project was well-organized, and we went from demo to a fully functioning kitchen in just 30 days. Highly recommend!
