What exactly is a kitchen/bath designer?

There are thousands of kitchen/bath design specialists available to help you organize your planning process and make stylish, cost-effective decisions.

Some have focused exclusively on kitchens throughout their careers, while others have been trained more broadly as interior designers or remodeling specialists.

Why should I work with one?

A designer can pull all the pieces of your project puzzle together and keep you from getting bogged down in details that can throw your planning off track. You’ll be free to dream, while the designer thinks through all the measurements, material coordination and construction logistics.

You also don’t have to give up control of your plans or turn all the remodeling work over to other craftsmen either when you work with a kitchen/bath designer. You can be as involved in the project as you like.

What are the benefits of involving a designer?

When you do need someone to handle logistics, whether it’s ordering products or coordinating contractors’ schedules, that’s where a designer can step in.

Here is a sample list of tasks you can reasonably expect your designer to handle:

      • Visit your home to take measurements.
      • Create a design and draft perspectives, elevations and a floor plan.
      • Develop a detailed budget and schedule.
      • Order products and materials.
      • Coordinate work with construction, painting and other contractors.
      • Oversee the installation and placement of the cabinets and other design elements.
