A beautiful, functional kitchen is an asset to any home.

A study recently released by Houzz revealed that 49% of Australian homeowners planned to renovate in the next 12 months, and kitchen renovations were the top priority. While a DIY kitchen renovation may seem like a money-saving exercise, many of these projects end in budget blowouts, costly and ongoing repairs, and mountains of stress.

Today in the B&C Home Journal, we explore the benefits of engaging a kitchen design professional. If any of the statements below ring true for you, the kitchen design experts at Balnei & Colina Renovations Sydney are ready to help turn your dream kitchen ideas into a reality you can enjoy every day!

5) I want an outdoor kitchen

Owning a beautiful outdoor entertaining area with convenient cooking and serving facilities often forms part of a homeowner's wish list! Exposed to the elements, an outdoor kitchen requires suitable materials, fittings and appliances that will withstand weather extremes. Add the importance of efficiently and safely running power, gas and water to the area, and you can see how calling in a kitchen design professional to design and construct your outdoor kitchen will give you years of alfresco dining pleasure.
