Your kitchen is probably one of the most frequently used areas of your home. A fresh kitchen can breathe new life into your space, but you may be hesitant to move forward because you’re unsure of the range of options (and accompanying prices) available to you. The most cost-effective method is a simple respraying of your existing cabinets and as you’d imagine, the most expensive is to essentially start from scratch.
Consider the least expensive option – respraying your existing cabinets and upgrading the handles as illustrated in this picture:

The cost of this project is approximately $4,500 for respraying and $500 for changing cabinet handles and as you can see, gives a high-end appearance and significant bang for your buck.
At the other end of the cost spectrum is a complete remodel. This entails removing all existing cabinets, counters, backsplash, and appliances. You can expect project costs of $40,000 - $60,000 for a complete remodel of a kitchen approximately the size of the photo above. This price includes the cost of cabinets, counters, and tile and the installation of client-supplied appliances, sink, and disposal.
Some homeowners prefer to complete specific parts of a kitchen remodel rather than a complete.
There are many additional options for kitchen remodeling we haven’t discussed already, like an expanded footprint or an island/peninsula. We’ll go into detail on those in our next blog.

- Replacing counters – approx. $7,500 - $8,500 (This includes removing the existing counters and installing new 5/8 plywood sub-counters beneath the new counters. We recommend man-made counters as they do not have problems inherent to natural stone like cracking and fissures)
- Replace backsplash – approx. $2,500 - $3,500
- Add under-counter LED strip lighting – approx. $2,000 - $3,000
- Reface existing cabinets – approx. $10,000 - $15,000 (This includes replacing doors and drawers with solid wood and high-quality components)
