What is the most expensive part of remodeling a kitchen?
Cabinets account for about half the materal cost of the project and will have the greatest impact on your budget. Cabinets range in price based on quality, the type of material they are made of, and whether they are stock (ready made in specific sizes) or custom (produced specifically for your kitchen in whatever sizes are needed). Rough-in materials, including lumber, plumbing, electrical wiring and devices and labor account for the next highes portion of the kitchen remodel project. Major appliances purchases can easily be the third largest portion. Materials you choose for surfaces including counters, backsplashes and floors also account for variations in price.
