What is the average kitchen remodel cost?

Before starting any home improvement project, getting a couple of estimates is typically a good first step. However, with a large remodeling project such as a kitchen remodel, a little more research is usually needed. This large project requires a budget in order to keep costs in check.

A general benchmark is to spend between 5 and 15 percent of your home’s total value on your kitchen remodel. This is based on recuperating the cost of a kitchen remodel during a home sale.

Start by asking yourself a few questions that will help determine the overall budget.

1. Do you want to change the layout or size of the room? Moving the location of sinks or appliances requires plumbing and electrical changes which add cost. Of course moving walls adds cost and may require a structural engineer or architect getting involved. On the other hand, keeping the existing layout will save both time and money.

2. How long do you plan on living in your home? If you are trying to spruce up your home for a quick sale, you won’t want to spend very much. However, if you plan on living there for awhile, you will want to invest in higher end materials that you can enjoy over the years.

3. Will you be re-using any materials? Perhaps you don’t need to upgrade all (or any) of your appliances. Maybe you love your floor and don’t want to change it. Or, your cabinetry is functional, and you just want to paint them instead of replacing them. If you are able to repurpose some of your existing kitchen, it can save you a lot of money. Conversely, if you are replacing all your appliances with luxury brands, you will need to budget accordingly. For example, the least expensive fridge-freezer from Sub-Zero costs over $8,000.
