Don't panic, now we'll tell you everything.
For a person who is faced with a major overhaul for the first time, this is indeed not an easy task and it is important not to make typical mistakes. It is not very clear what is the main thing here and what is secondary, but meanwhile, the sequence of stages of renovation in the kitchen is extremely important.
If you don’t “get started” in the right way, then there is a high probability that you simply won’t have enough money to finish the basic things, since you will spend money on nonsense, miscalculating the cost of the work, for example. By the way, we have previously published a review of average prices for renovation work in the Russian Federation, as well as a plan for renovating a small kitchen.

Choose reliable flooring
Even light tiles on the kitchen floor are better than laminate / Pixabay
In the kitchen, something constantly falls and spills on the floor. Therefore, the coating should be resistant to mechanical stress, it should not be afraid of water and lose its appearance due to frequent cleaning.
Suitable for the kitchen floor:
- ceramic tile;
- porcelain stoneware;
- linoleum;
- quartz-vinyl tiles;
- self-leveling epoxy floor.
Linoleum is the most budget material. For the kitchen, options of 32–42 wear resistance classes are suitable. Such linoleum has an average price of 500–700 rubles per m² and lasts 10–15 years.
Quartz-vinyl tiles are stronger and more durable than linoleum - the service life is at least 15 years. For the kitchen they choose quartz vinyl of wear resistance classes 32–42, this costs from 800 rubles per m².
Ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and self-leveling epoxy flooring are the most durable options. Their service life is calculated in decades. But they are recommended less often for the kitchen than quartz-vinyl and linoleum: such coatings are hard, so the dishes break when they fall. Prices for tiles and porcelain tiles start from 250 rubles per m², but installation is expensive - from 800 rubles per m². The cost of an epoxy floor also includes the labor fee; prices start from 2,000 rubles per m².
