Finding Illinois Kitchen Designers
Before beginning your selection process it’s important to have an overall goal or set of goal. Simply “wanting a new kitchen” isn’t enough and you’ll end up wasting time in the selection process. You might even be considered a potentially unsuitable client (the best Illinois kitchen designers are very busy, with lengthy waiting lists).
It might be you’d like to have more counter area for your hobby or catering business, you may wish to make the most of views, let more natural light into the kitchen, create a breakfast zone – or any number of needs and wants. How does your family cook in your kitchen? Are you a expert chef or do you just warm things up? Do you do much entertaining? Do you bake many cakes?
Making a list of these needs and taking notes about how your family use your kitchen – along with ideas of the materials and colors you’d like in your kitchen remodel project – will all help a great deal in that initial sit down with your kitchen designer, assisting the designer to understand you as a new client and saving your valuable time in any early-stage complimentary design consultations.
Once you have the underlying concepts of your wishes and requirements – it’s time to look at the kitchen designers themselves.
Your Search Starts Here
The web has made looking for and selecting kitchen designers in Illinois much easier.
You can search specialist kitchen directory and cabinet review sites like KitchensRated, search trade associations such as the National Kitchen and Bath Association’s Illinois local chapter, or search the Illinois section of the BBB
Most top kitchen designers are certified members of trade associations like the NKBA, or have received certification from specialist bodies like the National Council for Interior Design Qualifications (NCIDQ).
Equipped with your shortlist of kitchen professionals, it’s time to go to their websites. In this day and age, all professional kitchen designers should have websites – to help showcase their work to potential clients across Illinois.
After browsing their website, how do they come across to you? Do they display examples of finished kitchen projects? Do they display any customer testimonials? Is all their contact information on-site? Does the website load?
Visiting Your Shortlist
Find some time to visit the kitchen professionals on your list. Certainly it may be faster to have them visit your home – but first go have a look at their office, design studio or kitchen showroom to get a feel for their professionalism.
How do you feel? How do you get on with them? Does their office appear well run? Is the showroom busy? Look at photos of any recent kitchen designs – most kitchen designers like to carry books packed with before and after photographs from past client projects. Do these look good to you?
Do they have display kitchens set up? If so are they well built and holding up well? Do they only deal with particular kitchen cabinetry manufacturers? If they do, read their reviews too!
If you like what you’ve seen so far and after any initial meetings it would appear that they have good ideas for your project, now’s the time to have them visit your home.
Plan to have 3 Illinois kitchen designers come and look at your room – you’ll get three fairly unique designs and by having them visit your home, talking about your project you can get a very good feeling of what they would be like to work with.
From those three kitchen designers there will be one who is the best fit. Now it’s time to…
Look at Recent Kitchen Remodeling Projects
Any chosen kitchen designer should have a list of clients from recent projects who would be more than happy to chat with you. By talking with a couple of recent clients you’ll get a far better idea of what the designer is like on a project.
If you’re able to arrange to view at least one of the kitchens, that should be a worthwhile task – ask the owner what they love about their new kitchen, how the floor plan is to live with and how well they got on with their kitchen designer.
Did anything go wrong? If so how well was the problem resolved?
By following the steps above, you should be able to find the perfect Illinois kitchen designer for your needs – and end up with a kitchen to be proud of!
And please don’t forget to come back to KitchensRated and rate/review your chosen kitchen designer.
It’s consumer reviews like yours that make KitchensRated the resource it is. By giving your designer an honest review you’ll be helping them get new clients (or helping them improve) – and make the task of selecting Illinois kitchen professionals so much easier for other homeowners.
