Who to hire: Depending on the project scope, you’ll need a general contractor, an electrician and/or a drywaller (to patch wall holes). An interior designer can be very helpful in the planning and placement pr
n a kitchen, moving the outlets to a lower, horizontal position helps keep them out of the design-critical parts of the backsplash. And because you won't have long cords snaking up to a higher plug, they'll be mostly out of sight when in use.
