How Much Should I Budget for My Project?

What does a typical remodeling project cost?

Among the many answers, you should ask a few simple questions...

• How old is your home?
• How large of a project are you embarking on?
• What finishes are you hoping to use?

Remodeling is not a science — it's an art, but while painting the canvas we've been able to define "approximately" what you can expect to pay for the types of projects we build.

NOTE: None of these costs are by any means a hard cost —
they are simply an average of what our clients have
invested in their homes.

Complete Bathroom Make-Over

Approximate Cost and Budget
$20,000 & Up           

Our bathroom makeovers typically are designed by an interior designer or an architect and most likely the old bathroom will be totally gutted.

Plumbing fixtures might be moved to accept new finishes such as an in-wall faucet or the addition of a Jacuzzi tub.

The room will have all new finishes which are typically of mid-grade pricing points, but may include features such as a Euro Glass shower door, new cabinets, granite or slab counter tops, travertine or like flooring, a custom poured shower pan with mosaic floor and wall tiles set on an angle and in-floor electric heat.

Complete Kitchen Remodel

Approximate Cost and Budget
$65,000 & Up           

For us, our average kitchen is always professionally designed by a certified kitchen designer and typically includes totally gutting the space.

An update of the electrical for new lighting and switching, as well as, plumbing updates and relocates for that "new" kitchen design.

The finishes would be of mid-grade price point with new custom cabinets, mosaic backsplash, slab granite counter tops, stainless steel or integral appliances and new flooring.

Master Suite/Master Bath Make-Over

Approximate Cost and Budget
$40,000 & Up           

A typical master suite is usually designed by an interior designer or architect and most likely will have a five piece (tub, separate shower, two sinks and a toilet) as opposed to the bath make-over listed above which is normally a three piece.

The space most likely will be gutted with new plumbing and electrical as required. It might have a skylight added with a custom euro shower as the focal point of the room.

All new finishes would include mid grade price points on cabinets, slab tops, flooring, and plumbing and electrical fixtures.

It might also include a built-in A.V. cabinet for a T.V. in the master bedroom as well as new paint and trim throughout the space.

Basement Remodel/Design

Approximate Cost and Budget
$50/Square Foot & Up           

This basement assumes 1000 square feet of space and would most likely be designed by an interior designer or architect.

It would have paint grade trim, a three piece bath, one bedroom, a laundry room, a family room and a storage/mechanical room. 

All finishes would be mid-grade. The bath might have a tiled floor, a poured pan shower with euro glass door, built in bench and mosaic floor with new cherry cabinets and slab counter tops. 

The family room might have a built in entertainment system and fire place with custom cabinet surround as the focal point.

Addition or Whole House Make-Over

Approximate Cost and Budget
$200/Square Foot & Up           

Additions and whole house make-overs are almost always designed by an architect and tend to be the most complex and expensive because of the infrastructure that needs to be expanded and updated. 

From the gas line size needed to accommodate the new fireplace to the electrical service that needs to be relocated and on to the furnace system that is now too small — it all adds cost... not to mention we have not even talked about finishes! 

One thing is certain, the smaller the addition or space made over, the more expensive the square foot costs will get.
