What should your kitchen remodel cost in 2026?

Cosmetic Renovation

A cosmetic renovation is just updating surfaces and fixtures, not moving electrical or plumbing or adding onto the footprint of the house.

  • New cabinetry
  • Countertops
  • Backsplash
  • Faucet + sink
  • Lighting
  • Appliances
  • Hardware
  • Flooring

A cosmetic renovation is just updating surfaces and fixtures, not moving electrical or plumbing or adding onto the footprint of the house.

This is a best case scenario and is often what is needed for a home that is only 5-15 years old with substantially sufficient modern construction. If you are considering selling your home in the next few years, this can provide a significant return on your investment and help sell your home faster and at a higher price-point.

Mid-Range Kitchen Remodel

A mid-range kitchen renovation entails redesigning the kitchen layout without expanding the footprint. 

  • Moving plumbing and electrical
  • New cabinetry
  • Countertops
  • Backsplash
  • Faucet + sink
  • Lighting
  • Appliances
  • Hardware
  • Flooring

This budget and timeline is often what is needed for older homes that will require more work to brought up to modern code requirements. 

Major kitchen renovation

This is replacing an entire kitchen, often involving an addition to expand the footprint of the home to accommodate the new design.

  • Adding square footage
  • Replacing plumbing and electrical systems
  • New cabinetry
  • Countertops
  • Backsplash
  • Faucet + sink
  • Lighting
  • Appliances
  • Hardware
  • Flooring

Major renovations are often needed for historic homes to significantly expand the size of the kitchen and bring systems up to modern code requirements.

We help homeowners evaluate layout options, identify hidden constraints and determine whether cosmetic updates or larger structural changes make the most sense before construction begins.
