WORKSHEET B
YOUR RENOVATION GOALS
Use this worksheet to write down your renovation goals. These goals should describe what you want to achieve with
your renovation in terms of daily living. For each goal, write down the areas in your home that will be affected, any
existing problems that need to be corrected, new features you want to add and your description of how you expect to
use the space when renovation is completed.
Example:
Goal: Modernize and expand the kitchen area.
Areas affected: The kitchen.
Existing problems: The kitchen is too small and cramped, and the eating area is inadequate. There isn’t enough
counter space, and the existing cupboards are too small. The kitchen is also cut off from the rest of the house so when
we have visitors, the person cooking either can’t talk to them or everyone crowds in the kitchen. The adjacent formal
dining room is rarely used, it’s not our style. As well, the entire area seems dark and closed in, particularly in the winter.
New features we want: More electrical outlets at working level. Replace the single sink with a double unit. A built-
in dishwasher. A kitchen island with task lighting. We also want a breakfast nook that can comfortably seat six
people. More natural light would also be nice. Would really like to have a proper pantry that is convenient to the
kitchen work area.
How we will use the renovated space: Want to be able to cook a complete dinner without having to stop and clean
up because there’s no work space. Want to have family dinners in the eating area. Want visitors in the family room
to be able to carry on a conversation with those working in the kitchen. Want the kitchen to be a great place to be in
and want it to be the brightest room in the house.
