Kitchen remodeling cost depends on your project. With the cost of material and labor on the rise, the time to remodel your kitchen if you are thinking about it is now. The average cost to remodel has increased 10% to 14% in 2021 compared to 2020 and is expected to continue to go up.
The average cost for a major remodel for a smaller kitchen can be around $35,000 while a kitchen of more than 250 square feet of space maybe around $50,000. A minor kitchen remodel is now averaging around $10,000.
But despite the increase in cost people are still investing in the busiest room in the house. This not only is an investment for your family but is a major way to increase the value of the home itself. If you have been dreaming of updating and transforming your kitchen with new counters or cabinets or as simple as new hardware and paint this is the time.
There are many styles to choose from for the renovation of the kitchen, transitional has remained the one that still works best in most homes. Contemporary has moved up to the second choice in homeowners and the farmhouse look is chosen by one in 10 kitchen renovations.
White is still the color of choice for cabinets, backsplash, and walls. Gray is the color of choice for those who want something different than white.
Kitchen island cabinet colors of blue, black, and green will bring visual interest to white cabinets.
Kitchen Remodeling Flooring
Hardwood flooring stained or unstained is the most popular type of flooring. Vinyl or resilient flooring however is still a major player in the remodeling field.
Appliances
The second most common feature that homeowners splurge on is appliances for a kitchen renovation. Standard stainless is the overwhelming favorite, with nearly three in four renovating homeowners choosing this option. Over a third of upgraded appliances include high-tech features. The most popular are wireless and smartphone controls.
Counters and Backsplashes
Countertops are the most common feature improved during kitchen renovations. Homeowners opt for material based on the look and feel, durability, and ease of cleaning rather than the cost.
Quartz and granite are the most popular countertop material chosen. It has become common to select a contrasting countertop from the primary countertop. Some choose butcher block or wood slab.
It has become clear that homeowners are willing to spend a little more to get exactly what they want in countertops that are both beautiful and particle.
Ceramic and porcelain remain the top choices for backsplashes. Engineered quartz has also taken a lead in the options available. It has become the trend for homeowners to take the backsplash all the way from the countertop to the ceiling.
Cabinets
Most people doing a kitchen remodel either replace all the cabinets or at least the face. Shaker-style cabinet doors are the number one choice. Coming in second is the Flat panel. White cabinets are still running at the top of the list with a medium gray coming in second for color.
The most important upgrade is organizers. From cookie sheets to deep drawers and utensil organizers all proving to be very popular. Pull-out waste or recycling options are also growing in popularity.
The kitchen island has become very important for activities other than food preparation. Over half use it for entertaining and socializing. Islands are getting longer and have light fixtures above the island.
Updating the lights as well can change the entire area and give a newer refreshed look.
