Holiday‑Ready Kitchen & Bath Upgrades in SE Wisconsin

If your home is the gathering spot for football weekends, Friendsgiving, or family holidays, September is your last best chance to upgrade kitchens and bathrooms before guests arrive. From fast transformations to strategic remodels, here’s how to get it done on time in Southeast Wisconsin.

High‑Impact Kitchen Updates (4–8 Weeks)

Layout tweaks: Add an island, widen a walkway, or reconfigure for better prep and serving zones.

Countertops + backsplash: A fresh pairing elevates the whole space.

Task + under‑cabinet lighting: Brighten prep areas and bar counters.

Appliance swaps: Induction, double ovens, or quiet dishwashers make hosting easier.

Fast Bathroom Wins (2–4 Weeks)

New vanity + top: Add storage and style quickly.

Curbless or low‑threshold shower: Improves safety for visiting parents/grandparents.

Don’t Forget the Flow

Create a beverage/coffee zone away from the cooking work triangle.
