Fort Myers Kitchen Remodeling Tip; Kitchen Flow

Traffic flow in your kitchen is an important aspect of good kitchen design. You will remember I told you this after you bump rumps with Uncle Harry on your way to the sink. Flow, workability and the well known ‘work triangle’ are all well-known aspects of traffic pattern design.

Fort Myers Kitchen Remodeling | Tip: Appliance Placement

Placing Appliances


Last time we talked about basic kitchen design rules and the best place to start when remodeling your Fort Myers kitchen, the refrigerator. Once we know where it is going we can then think about the sink and then the range.

Existing plumbing will influence the sink placement. Water supply pipes are normally easily moved around but drains are a very different story.  In Fort Myers and throughout Florida, many houses are up on stilts and many don’t have finished ceilings under the floors. Most other houses are either on slabs or have finished floors under the kitchen floor.  Both these types present expensive problems when moving drain pipes. The good news is that base cabinets normally have at least a 4 inch kick and drain lines that disappear into the floor can be run horizontally for several feet under the cabinets, making sink placement easier. When in doubt, consult with your local plumber.
