7 Common Kitchen Problems & Their Solutions
Kitchen is one of the busiest room in the house. And if it’s not well-planned, then you will face a myriad of problems such as clutter, greasy countertop, and not enough storage space.
Here we have discussed 7 common kitchen problems and their solutions. Hope you’ll find it useful.
1. Drainage problems:
Is there a foul smell coming from the kitchen drains? If yes, then there’s a simple solution to this. Pour baking soda and lemon juice into the sink and leave it for 15 minutes before rinsing it with boiling water.
2. Cabinet doors don’t close properly:
Over a period of time kitchen drawers and cabinets become sticky and they are tough to open. Washing the hinges and the runners with liquid soap can get rid of the debris that gets accumulated over a period of time. By adding a few drops of oil or any other lubricant can make them function perfectly.
3. Not enough counter space:
A lack of countertop space is a common design problem. During the time of getting your kitchen designed, plan for enough countertop space for more than one person to operate. However, if you have a small counter space, you have to get creative with storage. Don’t keep too many things on the counter space and use window sills to store canisters and other items. Keep all the kitchen appliances in the cabinets when they are not in use.

4. Overcrowded fridge:
Overcrowding of fridge is one problem that nearly affects every household. However, what you may not realise is that overcrowding not only causes wastage of food, it can also slow down the cooling of your fridge. The best way to deal with this problem is to keep everything in transparent jars and containers so that you know which item needs to be finished first.
5. Inadequate window area:
Not having sufficient ventilation can cause suffocation. There’s little you can do if your kitchen’s window is poorly placed or is too small. The best solution to keep the smoke out and prevent grease from damaging your cabinets is to install a chimney.

Often when a kitchen is not well-organised, it is difficult to find things. The best way to find things without any hassle is to have a designated place for all the items and keep them back at the same place. Labelling is an innovative way of keeping track of items in your kitchen.
7. Greasy surface:
Grease builds up on kitchen stove, tiles, and countertop over a period of time. It gets tough to remove these grease stains with daily surface cleaner. The best way to clean greasy surface is to spray white vinegar and clean the surface with a microfiber cloth.
