    Research and Plan Properly

    Understanding the extent of the project is key to staying on time and within budget. Nothing will cost you more (in time and money) than deciding to make a change in the middle of a custom kitchen remodel. In short, you should know the details of every appliance, cabinet and even the finishes before you start.  This means picking out the countertops, faucets and sinks and even the cabinet knobs or pulls right in the beginning.  Of course, the small details are what really makes a kitchen special!
