Why buying a quality kitchen or bathroom can save you money

February 19th, 2012

When I bought my first home with my wife, she had a secure job with a major organization and I am self employed so even though my wife has a secure Job, because I am self employed, we still needed a 25 percent down payment to get a mortgage from a bank.

Because we needed a 25 percent down payment to buy our home it didn’t leave much left over to purchase any upgrades on our new home, but after looking at a company that had over 50 Ottawa Kitchens to choose from, we picked one that suited our taste and style. We also decide to look at their Ottawa Bathrooms and chose to have the same style of Kitchen and matching Bathroom design for our first home.

The standard kitchen that custom home builders offer are manufactured from malamine, a cheaper product which is not solid wood and is only a manufactured finish that is basically glued onto a fiberboard to look like real wood which of course is not. If you are buying a new home, I highly recommend you look at a higher quality kitchen with solid wood cabinets. Solid wood cabinets will not warp or twist or swell like malamine kitchen cabinets that have a veneer type finish that can be subject to chips, and damage more easily from moisture from kitchen sinks etc. It is well worth the extra money when building or buying a new home from a developer to upgrade to solid wood cabinets, as it will save you money by not having to upgrade your kitchen in less time when your cabinets are worn and dated.

We have now been living in our home for six years and the kitchen cabinets still look fantastic as the day they were installed in our home. We also decided to add new granite countertops to our Ottawa Kitchen and Bathroom set making them look fantastic with the granite colour we chose. Granite kitchen and bathroom countertops make the kitchen and bathroom look much richer with the glossy real stone finish and will last for years to come.
