The average cost of a kitchen renovation will vary in price and will really depend on a few factors. If you do some of the work right yourself, you can definitely reduce the cost of your kitchen renovation. However, if you make things worse, you can pay a contractor more to fix the problems you created. In general, if you hire a contractor to do ALL of your kitchen remodeling work, the average cost of a kitchen renovation will be around $15,000 to $26,000. This price will include design, material, labor and installation.
One of the best ways to keep your average kitchen renovation costs low is to hire a contractor who works specifically in the kitchen renovation market, or at least has a division of the company that does. These contractors will have subcontractors and vendors that they work closely with. This will allow you to have extremely competitive prices on appliances, materials and labor costs. The subcontractors and vendors who work for the contractor you hire really appreciate the business. They will give that contractor the best price available, which in turn will pass the savings on to you.
Another way to pay for the cost of a kitchen renovation is to work with a contracting company that offers financing. In these times, elite contracting companies offer financing to their clients to make it affordable for the average family. You can still have the kitchen of your dreams and not receive a bill so high that it has to be paid all at once. You can set up a payment plan and have months to pay your bill.
My third recommendation to save costs on your kitchen renovation is to work with a general contractor who does design-build projects. By using a GC that designs and builds, you can eliminate the designer. Designers can be very expensive and add an additional $10,000 to $15,000 to the total cost of your kitchen renovation. Many general contractors have the ability to design the perfect kitchen for you and, of course, build it. The design process of your project will be included in your proposal thus avoiding any additional external costs.
The average cost of a kitchen renovation varies in price, but if you use the three tips in this article, you’ll find that you can get the best price in town.
