Favorite Kitchen Makeovers From HGTV Pros Part 2

Our Favorite Kitchen Makeovers From HGTV Pros Part 2

We've rounded up some of our all-time favorite kitchen transformations from HGTV's Fixer Upper, Property Brothers, Kitchen Cousins and more!

1. Fixer Upper Before

Basic. Boring. Blah. This kitchen simply lacked personality and needed an update and a way to better utilize the open space.

2. Fixer Upper After

A center island makes great use of the space and provides an extra spot for food prep. New hardwood floors add warmth, while recessed and pendant lighting illuminate the space.

3. Kitchen Cousins Before

The Sosa family’s kitchen simply lacked space and functionality. With no room for storage and very little counterspace, a smarter layout and a place to prep meals was a must.

4. Kitchen Cousins After

Hosts Anthony Carrino and John Colaneri extended the wall that cut through the center of the kitchen to make more room. With all that extra space, they were able to add new appliances (including a much-needed dishwasher!) as well as extra counterspace.

5. Cousins Undercover Before

In this small kitchen, an old oven takes up half the counterspace, leaving very little room for food prep.

6. Cousins Undercover After

After the makeover, there’s plenty of counterspace to go around, and the crisp white cabinets contribute to the sweet cottage look. A gray and white backsplash adds depth and character to this cute kitchen.

7. Buying and Selling Before

Closed off and out of date, this basic kitchen needed a lot of help.

8. Buying and Selling After

By knocking down one wall, hosts Drew and Jonathan Scott were able to create a light, open atmosphere. A new island with a built-in sink and dishwasher is the perfect centerpiece, combining style and function.

9. Flip or Flop Before

Mustard yellow walls and dated cabinetry proved this kitchen was ready for an update.

10. Flip or Flop After

New countertops and warm wooden cabinets give this kitchen a cozier vibe with plenty of workspace.

11. Fixer Upper Before

From the flooring to the lighting, this kitchen could not have looked more dated. Thankfully hosts Chip and Joanna Gaines had big plans for this all-brown disaster.

12. Fixer Upper After

Voila! New wood floors make a huge difference, but the brick backsplash, stainless appliances and gorgeous black granite countertops don’t hurt either.

13. Kitchen Cousins Before

This kitchen was definintely one of the worst. No cabinets and no ceiling called for a major overhaul.

14. Kitchen Cousins After

After the makeover, this once-scary kitchen is now a quaint cottage cookery with dark gray cabinets, a large farmhouse sink and gorgeous granite countertops.

15. Love It or List It, Too Before

Fluorescent lights and old-fashioned white oak cabinets left a lot to be desired in this '80s-style kitchen.

16. Love It or List It, Too After

Hickory hardwood floors look flawless in this updated space. The existing island was given a contemporary facelift with modern lines and a clean, white finish.

17. Cousins Undercover Before

This bland kitchen was lacking counterspace, and needed an updated look with new flooring and cabinets.

18. Cousins Undercover After

New white cabinets make all the difference, but hardwood floors, added counterspace and updated appliances certainly don’t hurt either.
