KITCHEN REMODELING IN PHOENIX

Every TWD kitchen remodel is designed specifically for our homeowner. As a general rule of thumb, a kitchen remodel can cost anywhere from 10% - 25% of the value of your home depending on the work that is needed. The complexity, size and components involved all go into determining the level of remodeling needed.

At a basic level maintaining the current layout without any relocations, you can safely budget being in the $15,000 - $35,000 price range, while at an intermediate level can cost approximately $35,000 - $75,000 involving minor modifications. A major remodel consisting of elaborate modifications and layout changes can be in the $75,000 - $125,000 price range.

As with any remodel, it depends on the size of the kitchen and complexity of the project. The average kitchen can take between four to eight weeks to properly renovate, not including the planning and design phase or time for material staging. Unlike other contractors in Phoenix, TWD does have a “staging phase” for all of our projects. During this time, we’ll order, receive and quality check all of the materials that will go into your project and have them staged ready to go in order to eliminate delays or product availability issues during construction. Our goal is to complete your project as smoothly and quickly as possible because we understand that living in a construction zone is simply not for the faint of heart.

The biggest chunk out of your kitchen remodel budget will likely go towards your cabinetry.  On average 35% of the overall budget is spent on cabinets alone. Whether you are planning to retire in your current home or reselling it in the upcoming years, you’ll want to choose a good quality cabinet to get the most out of your investment.

In order to determine which countertop material is right for you, you'll need to ask yourself what the most important characteristics are to you. A few critical things to consider is how sensitive a particular material is to stains, spills and heat. Does it requires any additional or extra care versus another? What is the likelihood of breakage and chips; and how easy is it to repair? Quartz are man-made engineered from a combination of resin and quartz, making it known for its extreme durability and easy maintenance. Granite withstands cuts, stains, scratches and heat easily when properly sealed, but its durability causes it to weigh substantially more requiring added support measures to be taken. Granite is recommended to receive annual sealing to keep it looking like new. If you are looking for a maintenance free product, granite may not be right for you.

Tip #1: By knowing your priorities for your kitchen remodel, you can better access which items are a "need" vs a "want". For example the "needs" in a kitchen will vary for a chef that prepares extravagant meals, than they will for an avid pastry baker and likewise for the family on the go that prefers takeout meals.

Tip #2: If your kitchen cabinets are in good shape, consider refacing them in lieu of a full cabinet replacement or simply upgrading the hardware to give your current cabinetry a new look. By saving money on your cabinetry, it may just allow you the wiggle room you were looking for to splurge on your countertop or other selection in your kitchen that is more of a "need".

Tip #3: Avoid changing the footprint of your kitchen, and thus minimizing the need for plumbing and electrical relocations.
