Remodeling Budget Calculator
Kitchen, Bath, and Living Space Planning
Below we have created a tool to help you understand what goes into an overall budget for remodeling projects. While no two projects are the same it should allow you to create the framework of a budget for your project.
That said, there are many variables that must be considered, so please contact a design professional to discuss your project.
Start here by entering your home's value
Determine a total kitchen or bath remodeling budget by selecting a percentage of your home's value.
Quick Tip on Home Value %:
A kitchen project is a defining room in your home. Consider beginning with 15% as a starting point for a kitchen and 8% for a master bath project.
Remember that a major kitchen remodel project adds 72.1% of its value back into your home\'s value and a bathroom remodel adds 71% of its value based on a national average.*
