3 Ways to Plan a Kid-Friendly Remodel
Remodeling your home can be stressful and tedious, and adding young children into the equation can make the process even more difficult. From dangerous construction zones to disruptive noises, it helps to be prepared. Discover how you can have an enjoyable, safe, and kid-friendly remodeling experience with these tips. One key part is drawing up floor plans well-advance.
Discuss Kid-Friendly Design Plans
Before construction begins, sit down with your designer and discuss how you can make your remodel kid-friendly. If you’re planning a kitchen remodeling project, avoid building with materials that are difficult to clean as young children are masters of the mess. Think about how the layout of your kitchen will make caring for your young children easier. Do you typically feed your child at the kitchen counter or the center island? Your remodel project should make your home more beautiful and more efficient.
Safety First
Whether you live at home during the process or you decide to relocate until the project is finished, safety should always come first. If your kitchen is being remodeling, ensure that your youngster doesn’t set foot inside of it while construction is taking place. Loose nails, dangerous equipment, and dusty environments can pose incredibly high risks for your young child. Avoid the risk altogether, and keep your child away from the work site.
Avoid White
Let’s face it, kids are messy. If you have young children then it’s best to avoid the white carpet and white furniture. It doesn’t matter how many rules you set, there’s bound to be one sticky popsicle fall hopelessly onto your crisp, white antique rug.
