We do a kitchen renovation

Renovation means - qualitatively finishing the premises with the use of modern technologies and materials. It is carried out by specialists using a professional tool. The kitchen is an "independent" room in the dwelling. Its decoration can stand out from the general stylistic picture of the interior of a house or apartment.

Kitchen renovation consists of 7 stages.

An assessment is needed to choose the right strategy for planning a European kitchen renovation. Various communications are evaluated first. Plumbing, sewerage, gas supply, electrical wiring, ventilation.

It is better to replace pipes older than 5 years with polypropylene analogs. All connections are checked for leaks, and their locations are inspected. They should not interfere with the repair, operation of the premises.

The drainage outlet must be replaced - this is a high-risk node. The drain pipe is hidden from view into a box or wall niche, leaving access to 1-2 sockets.

An incorrect location of the gas pipe and the corresponding meter will create problems during finishing work. Redevelop the gas line with the involvement of specialized specialists. Use flexible metal corrugated hoses for supplying liquefied fuel.

The wiring must be replaced. Not allowed:

• insulation damage;
• sharing conductors made of different metals;
• lack of junction boxes and protective corrugation.

The marking of the location of the wiring points is made: sockets, switches, lamps.

Renovation of a kitchen involves the efficient use of all available space. Redevelopment of the premises is not excluded. Within its framework, partitions can be transferred, additional doorways can be cut through, niches can be built on.

The space is divided into zones that differ in purpose:

• cooking area;
• place of eating;
• storage area;
• other zones that are required in a particular room.

The style of the kitchen is determined, a harmonious design is selected. These characteristics should be combined with kitchen furniture and household appliances. Expenses for finance and materials are calculated in advance, time frames are set.

The list of these works includes:

• demolition / erection of partitions;
• sawing wall materials;
• chipping;
• plaster - leveling surfaces;
• concrete pouring work.

Order of conduct:

• isolation of the room from others - dust protection;
• arrangement of the workplace - preparation of tools, scaffolding, materials;
• all kinds of dismantling;
• waterproofing the floor;
• filling the screed;
• erection of various designs of partitions, arches, racks;
• chiselling / drilling of niches, grooves, indentations for electric points.

At this stage, the installation of all communication systems is carried out: the access points to the water are bred, the outlets of the drain pipes are equipped. Electrical wiring and gas supply - a subject of increased attention and caution, it is required to comply with all safety standards. For this, specialists are involved.

Give all surfaces a semi-finished look. The list of finishing works includes:

• installation of various frames, boxes and niches made of plasterboard, panels and the like;
• installation of "glasses" for sockets and switches;
• putty, alignment of corners, slopes and so on;
• sanding, paintwork;
• laying of floor coverings - tiles, laminate, parquet boards.

Give the room time to settle. A period of drying and adaptation to temperature extremes is required. At this time, probable flaws in the finish come to light. These can be cracks, chips, spots or voids, air bubbles, backlash. Eliminate.

The finishing of the apartment is completed with works that require the greatest care, adherence to technology and maintenance of cleanliness. Finishing manipulations involve:

• gluing wallpaper;
• decorative coating;
• finishing painting;
• grouting tile joints;
• installation of skirting boards;
• installation of lighting devices, sockets, switches.

The final part of the kitchen renovation. Furniture is assembled, installed, built in. The cornices are mounted, the curtains are hung. Household appliances and various appliances are connected. A control check of all systems is carried out: water supply, gas supply, electrical wiring and drain. Leaks are repaired along with sparking, congestion and other technical problems. General cleaning is in progress. From this moment on, the apartment or house is complemented by a kitchen, which has been renovated in Eurostyle.

The main feature of the finishing is the quality of workmanship, only high-quality materials for the intended purpose are used. Substitutes, dummies, cheap fragile building materials are excluded. The work is carried out according to the design project. Improvisation during renovation is not allowed.

Western-style renovation in "Khrushchev" has been completed. Non-marking furniture covering in soft beige tones. The design and color of the furniture are pleasing to the eye and create an atmosphere of peace and comfort. The main part of communications is devoid of visibility - it is hidden in walls or furniture. Built-in appliances - gas stove in the worktop, ventilation hood in the wall cabinet. The overall design of the kitchen unit assumes the use of the available space to the maximum extent.

A non-standard approach to the placement of a sink with a mixer was used. This block is removed from the central utility pipe and is located opposite the window. A major reconstruction of the water supply system and drain was carried out.

The working surface of the wall is finished with harmoniously selected tiles - an effective solution in terms of practicality and ergonomics.

A room with a free layout. Hi-Tech style kitchen decoration. White and gray tones. The glossy surfaces of furniture and ceilings create an atmosphere of cold aesthetics. Adequate number of lighting points. Additional light above the work surface. Almost all communications are isolated.

Built-in home appliances: induction hob and oven fit seamlessly into the kitchen space. Plasma panel on a pendant arm is a modern design element. Stylistic combination of the pattern on the tile and door leaf.

The foldable kitchen table increases the free space while accommodating a sufficient number of people.The rounded corner part of the pedestal-table saves space and emphasizes the style of the room.
