What to Include in a Kitchen Remodel Estimate

Kitchen remodels involve 4-6 trades and weeks of disruption. A detailed estimate sets expectations and prevents scope disputes:

  • Cabinets are 30-40% of the total cost. Specify the cabinet line, door style, and finish — vague descriptions lead to mismatched expectations.
  • Use allowances for owner selections. "Flooring allowance: $5/sq ft" tells the customer what's budgeted and gives them room to upgrade if they want.
  • Break labor into phases: demo, plumbing rough-in, electrical rough-in, cabinets, countertops, tile, painting, trim. Customers appreciate seeing the sequence.
  • Note whether appliances are included or owner-supplied. This is the most common source of kitchen estimate confusion.
  • Call out structural work (removing walls, adding headers) as its own line item. It's a common add-on that blows budgets when it's discovered mid-project.
  • Include a dumpster and demo costs. First-time remodelers underestimate how much comes out before anything goes in.

Common Questions

How do I estimate kitchen remodel costs?+

Break the project into categories: cabinets (30-40% of budget), countertops (10-15%), labor (20-35%), appliances (if included), flooring, backsplash, and fixtures. A mid-range kitchen remodel typically costs $25,000-$60,000; high-end renovations can exceed $100,000. Always include permits and design fees.

What markup should I charge for kitchen remodels?+

General contractors typically mark up kitchen remodels 25-40%. The complexity of coordinating multiple trades (plumbing, electrical, tile, cabinets, countertops) justifies a higher markup than simple single-trade jobs. Markup on subcontractors is usually 15-20%; materials markup is 20-30%.

What should a kitchen remodel estimate include?+

Include itemized materials (cabinets, countertops, backsplash, fixtures, flooring, paint), labor by trade/phase, demo and dumpster costs, permits, design fees, appliance installation (if applicable), and a detailed scope noting what's included and excluded. Include a project timeline.

How long does a kitchen remodel take?+

A typical full kitchen remodel takes 6-10 weeks from demo to completion. Cabinet lead times (4-8 weeks for custom, 2-4 weeks for semi-custom) often determine the overall timeline. Include the timeline in your estimate so customers can plan around being without a kitchen.
