Designing Your Kitchen and Bath - Budget

To determine how much your new kitchen or bath remodel will cost, there are a few key factors to keep in mind.
You can have a very simple plan or a very elaborate plan with multiple ranges in between.
Items that can affect your budget include:

For kitchens, prices can range from $5000 if you choose to complete some of the work yourself to $200,000 or higher. An average kitchen will cost from $15,000-$26,000 including design, products and installation.

Bathroom prices generally average between $6500 and $11,600 when everything is being replaced. You can certainly spend less money or more money depending on the features and options you want to include.

According to an annual construction cost survey by RemodelingOnline, a minor remodel of a 200-square-foot (10x20) kitchen averages $17,037-$19,366 nationwide; a mid-range major remodel including an island and other upgrades runs $50,860-$59,716; and an upscale remodel for the same size kitchen can be $103,529-$115,549. These are averages; actual costs may be higher or lower.

In order to find out what price range you will fall into, do your homework. Visit showrooms, look at current kitchen and bath magazines, ask friends who have been through the process, make an appointment with a kitchen and bath professional or contractor. The kitchen and bath industry is one of the fastest changing parts of the industry. Be prepared to fall in love with more than you budgeted for. There is more to choose from than you can imagine so plan to leave some extra room in the budget, as much as 20%, for those items that you did not anticipate falling in love with.

Before you get overwhelmed by these numbers, set your priorities, define your budget and make a wish list and start shopping to see what’s out there. It doesn’t cost anything to shop and price on paper!
