How to Avoid Sticker Shock When Remodeling a Kitchen

Kitchen renovation projects come at a cost — typically, an average of $9,500 to $14,250, according to Forbes magazine. However, there are many things you can do to prevent your kitchen remodel from reaching a price that is out of your budget. Some of the things that dictate the price of a kitchen estimate are the square footage of your kitchen, the additions you plan to make and the scope of the project.

Here are some things you can do to avoid sticker shock:

Finalize your kitchen design. Before starting your kitchen remodeling project, make sure that you finalize your kitchen’s layout first. It’s more economical to keep your existing kitchen layout, from the architectural style to the appliances, then optimize it accordingly. If possible, don’t move the location of your sink or appliances so you don’t have to redo wiring and plumbing.
Determine the scope of the work. Create a detailed list of tasks you want to be done by your remodeler during the construction project. This will help you get an accurate kitchen quote as well. A few examples are changing out your flooring and cabinets, and upgrading to a smart storage unit. When you book your initial consultation with your contractor, there might be additional work required for your kitchen to ensure that you’re optimizing kitchen space.
Work with the right remodeling contractor. It’s important to work with a certified and licensed remodeling company in your area. Do some thorough research and secure at least three bids.
