The short answer
Why There Is No Single Price for a Kitchen
Kitchen renovation cost depends on the size of the room, how much of the kitchen changes, and the materials you choose. Painting existing cabinets and updating lights is a very different project from a full renovation with a new layout, so a fair price only comes after someone measures the space and talks through the plan.
We handle everything from a cabinet-and-countertop refresh to a full renovation, and each one is priced from the actual room.

Cost factors
The Biggest Cost Factors in a Kitchen Renovation
A handful of decisions shape most of the price. Layout changes, cabinets, and countertops usually carry the most weight, followed by flooring, backsplash, lighting, and appliances. Knowing which factors matter most helps you decide where to spend and where to save before the estimate visit, without giving up the result you want.
| Factor | How it affects the price |
|---|---|
| Kitchen size | More cabinets, countertops, flooring, and labor in a larger room |
| Layout | Keeping the sink, appliances, and walls in place costs less than moving them |
| Cabinets | Painting or refacing sound cabinets costs less than new ones |
| Countertops | The material, the square footage, and cutouts for the sink and cooktop |
| Flooring | The material and whether the old floor must be removed first |
| Backsplash | The tile, the pattern, and the area covered |
| Lighting | New recessed lights, pendants, and under-cabinet lighting |
| Hidden conditions | Water damage or uneven floors found once old cabinets come out |
Planning
Ways to Control Kitchen Renovation Cost
The most effective way to control cost is to decide early what will stay and what will change. Keeping the existing layout, painting sound cabinets instead of replacing them, and choosing materials before work starts all help the budget, because changes made in the middle of a project usually cost more than changes made on paper.
- Keep the sink, range, and dishwasher where they are
- Paint or reface cabinets that are still solid
- Choose countertops and tile before the project starts
- Combine the kitchen with flooring or painting in nearby rooms
- Leave room in the budget for repairs found behind old cabinets

FAQ
Questions About Kitchen Renovation Cost
These answers cover the questions homeowners ask most often about what a kitchen renovation costs and how the price is set. Every kitchen is different, so if your question is not listed, call (470) 712-5294 or send the form, and our team will explain what would affect the price of your project.
Why do you not list kitchen renovation prices online?
Because a price list would be wrong for most kitchens. Two kitchens of the same size can differ a lot in cost depending on the layout, the cabinets, the countertops, and what is found behind old cabinets. We prefer to see the room and give you a written price that fits your project instead of a range that does not.
What usually costs the most in a kitchen renovation?
Cabinets and countertops usually account for the largest share, followed by layout changes, flooring, and appliances. Moving plumbing or walls adds cost quickly, while keeping the existing layout and refreshing sound cabinets saves money. During the estimate, we show you where the budget goes so you can decide where to spend more and where to save.
Can I renovate my kitchen in stages?
Yes. Many homeowners start with the changes that matter most to them, such as painting the cabinets or replacing the flooring, and plan countertops or other updates for later. We help you put the stages in the right order, so that the work done later does not damage or undo the work you have already finished.
