Kitchen remodel cost

By remodel scope

Each row is a total for one scope of remodel. Scope names differ between sources, so each figure keeps a note with the source's own scope name. Angi and Fixr do not say outright whether their totals include labor; HomeGuide labels only its full-remodel per square foot figure as labor and materials.

Total remodel cost by scope. The median rule combines the supplied ranges, and typical is the median of the source midpoints.

Single-source costs

The sources disagree about the labor share: Angi gives About 25 percent and Fixr gives 50 to 60 percent, as shown in the labor facts below. The sources fold most extra work into the remodel scope, so the estimator has no add-on checkboxes. Each item keeps its original amount and wording.

The low and high are the medians of the published bounds. For an even set, the median is the mean of the central pair. Typical is the median of the source midpoints. Derived figures round to twenty-five-dollar steps below a thousand dollars and fifty-dollar steps at or above it, with exact halves rounded up. The estimator selects its base bounds and rounds the final totals.

Questions people ask

What is a typical kitchen remodel cost?

For a mid-range or major remodel, the typical figure is $27,000, within $20,000 to $60,000. A minor or cosmetic remodel is $10,000 to $20,000 and a high-end or complete remodel is $60,000 to $130,000.

How much of a kitchen remodel is labor?

The sources disagree. Angi gives About 25 percent, Fixr gives 50 to 60 percent, and HomeGuide gives $2,300 to $7,500, usually at least 15 percent of the budget for an average kitchen.

Do these prices include labor and materials?

Not every source says. Angi and Fixr do not say outright whether their totals include labor. HomeGuide labels only its full-remodel per square foot figure as labor and materials.

Why do the scope names differ?

Each site uses its own names, such as minor, cosmetic, basic, mid-range, major, high-end and complete. The rows group the closest matches, and each figure keeps a note with the source's own name.

Why are there no add-on options in the estimator?

The sources fold most extra work into the remodel scope, so adding items would count them twice. Separate prices such as permits and wall removal are listed below for context, and a budget cushion of 5 to 10 percent of the budget is suggested by Fixr.

Compare written quotes for the same scope, rather than judging a quote against the typical figure alone. Ask what each quote includes, such as cabinets, countertops, appliances and permits, and keep the source dates beside the comparison.
