One-Weekend Projects to Transform your Kitchen

Whether your kitchen is big or small or dated or new, there are times when we just itch for a change. If you’re looking for ways to give your kitchen a quick update, without breaking the bank or spending weeks or months remodeling, these projects are for you.

Before you start any project that might interfere with your piping or appliance locations, contact us. We offer plumber service on Long Island and will help with plumbing relocation and make sure your kitchen works the way it should.

Give the Cabinets a Facelift

Remove your cabinet doors and drawers, sand them down and then refinish them for a whole new look. You can also add trim and brand new hardware to give them more personality.

Redo Laminate Countertops

You can work with your old laminate countertops by simply using a finish that is designed for laminate. This is a simple way to give your counters a whole new look without replacing them entirely.

Add a Simple Island

Create a do-it-yourself island with some unfinished legs and a tabletop from the hardware store. Build it to fit your space and add as many features, like shelves, trim, or a built-in cutting board, as you want for some extra counter space and storage.

Update the Walls

Repaint your kitchen walls to freshen them up and give them a new style. Things like a chair rail, wainscoting or crown molding can be the perfect update to boring walls.

Install a Custom Backsplash

Create a custom backsplash using any color, size, shape or style of tile you want and then install it just behind your sink or all along your counters for some added function and color. A fun backsplash can add a lot of personality to kitchen.

All of these projects are simple, but can also make a big impact on how your kitchen looks. You can find more tips for DIY kitchen projects you can do in just one weekend on the Pat Dolan Plumbing website.
