DIY Kitchen Measuring Template

While you are “Staying at Home” To Remain Safe, You Can Still Start Your Kitchen Remodel Process. Here’s How.

During these challenging times while we are all trying to distance ourselves to stay safe, you can still start the process of your dream kitchen remodel by sending us your room measurements.

In the past, some clients have attempted to measure their space for us but I have found that they just don’t know how or what to measure to enable us to get started without our own site visit.

Measuring is Easier with this Template

So, here is a Kitchen Measuring template that shows you how to sketch it out, where to put the measurements you get and some notes to help make sure you add everything we need (and nothing more).

1. Print the File 

Print out the file (right click with your mouse and select print): 2 graph paper pages (one blank for you to use and one as a guide) also included are measurements done on a CAD program for reference.

 

2. Draw the approximate shape of your room:

“L” shaped, “U” shaped,  a Galley, a rectangle or a square.  Then measure from the wall corners and place the doors and windows. Measure to the outside edges of any window or door trim. See example for how to show measurements so I can interpret your measurements.  Show adjacent room measures if you are planning to expand your kitchen. There are more “how to” notes on the sketch example. 

3. Send your plans to me:

Scan and/or Take a Picture of your final sketch and Text or Email them with your phone number to: Jenny@ultimatedesignkitchens.com  Or  Text 530-903-2229

This was a new construction spec home in Lake Tahoe, where the investor wanted a rustic (but updated) feel. So I used real stone veneers for the backsplash, rustic hickory cabinets and a black leathered granite counter. All wrought iron accents in the lighting and hardware helped achieve the look.

As a designer/ specifier for new home construction, I get given a blank slate to work with. The architectural plans just have walls, windows and doors. In designing the layout for rooms like the kitchen and master bath, I can suggest window or door changes in order to complete a more usable, functional or aesthetic space.

All the while, I am keeping close tabs on the cost of the items I specify to stay in the price per square foot budget I have been given.

I think this project turned out pretty well.

Kitchen Cabinet Guide….. Pros and Cons of Local Custom cabinets vs Semi Custom Manufactured cabinets…..

Many of my clients ask me…..”which is better, having local custom cabinets made or purchasing one of the well known semi-custom manufactured brands”? Well, I’m sorry to say I do not have an easy answer to this question. Both have their advantages and disadvantages and I usually ask a series of questions to find out which would be better for each client. Some people do a lot of research before hiring a designer and they have already decided on a well known cabinet manufacturer. Other times, my clients have a friend of a friend who had their cabinets made locally by a custom cabinet builder.
