Kitchen renovation costs can vary widely, depending on the extent of change desired. For example, refacing your existing cabinets will cost less than replacing them with custom kitchen cabinetry (though it might be worth it to have your dream kitchen!). If you want to remove a wall for that coveted “open concept” look, you may have to change the floorplan of the kitchen. For a very small kitchen or very low-impact remodel, you might get by with a budget of $10K. Large kitchens with high-end finishes and high end appliances can cost over $140K. The only way to know for sure how much it would cost to renovate your kitchen is to request a free in home consultation.
Kitchen renovations definitely aren’t the best projects for beginners. Of course, it depends on what you want to change, but cabinet installation requires very precise measurement and it also takes some skill to make sure your countertops are perfectly flush. Tiling a floor or backsplash are kitchen remodeling projects that can have beautiful results when done by skilled craftsmen. Special care should also be taken with the plumbing and the materials used near water to prevent costly damage in the future.
You may have heard the real estate industry saying that “kitchens and bathrooms sell homes.” Houses with clean, modern kitchens are definitely far more appealing to buyers, but a kitchen remodel can also add to the equity of your home. The actual return on investment depends on several factors, including your location, but to get a general idea — Zillow reports that the national midrange major kitchen remodel ROI is about 59%.
Some kitchen remodeling companies advise updating your kitchen every 10 – 15 years, but it really depends on several factors. The quality of materials used is a big one — solid wood cabinets will last much longer than cheap particle board products, of course. Solid or engineered stone countertops will last many years if well cared-for. Maintenance is another factor in deciding how often to update your kitchen. Have the countertops been re-sealed as needed, and has the grout been scrubbed regularly to remove bacteria? Another factor is how much wear-and-tear happens in the kitchen; large families that do a lot of cooking will naturally be ready for a kitchen renovation before a couple that mostly orders take-out. The final deciding factor is aesthetic, i.e. whether you want the style of your kitchen to change to match your tastes.
Some signs that it might be time to consider a kitchen remodel include:
