How much costs your kitchen backsplash?
Comments (16)It seems a bunch of us are shopping for backsplashes. thedork: It is good to have allowances called out, because they are so highly variable. You don't need to negotiate the allowance, you will simply have to pay for the variance. But it is important when comparing bids to know the differences in the major allowances. The allowance is at the low end, but it is easy to get carried away with a lot of tile options. A subway tile, 4x4 or 6x6 from a major manufacturer can run you as little as $3 to $5. You can even get colors and bevels at that price. But the prices that people here are citing are very common as well -- it depends on your budget and what style you are seeking. Trim pieces, btw, will add to your total costs and they tend to be expensive. kgolby: glad you found your tile!...See MoreHow much should this kitchen cost?
Comments (17)Sarah, great info. Also, since the cabinets are such a huge chunk of the expense, really shop around for them. We have a small kitchen, not nearly enough cabinets. And still we got some outrageous quotes. First we went to 1 kitchen showroom and got quotes on the mac-daddy cabinets (Century), then a grade just below that. Century was close to 30k. The "cheap ones" were 24k. That was with full overlay, but ALL the bells and whistles. Since this is our second home, and a total rehab, neither of those were in the budget. Upon our contractor's suggestion, we went to HD to look at their Thomasville line. They had the door style we wanted. The same cabinet set up in their highest quality with all the bells and whistles was only $15k. BIG difference. I hate HD and was skeptical, but budgetary concerns won out. Plus our contractor, not HD, is installing them, which is where I've heard most of the problems arise. So yeah, shop around. :-)...See MoreHow much does it cost to repaint kitchen cabinets?
Comments (5)Cabinets are priced so competitively right now, as a kitchen designer I'm finding that frequently it doesn't even pay to replace the doors, panels and edgebanding (known as refacing) when you can buy new cabinets for only slightly more. I would hesitate to put that much money into IKEA cabinets. If they were all wood cabinets in otherwise great condition maybe painting would be a good choice.

Comments (21)Since mine was a gut job, my contractor's subs were still there so basically they just moved to work in another room while Traemand was doing their thing. You can get an estimate from Traemand without any obligation, even before you buy your cabinets - Ikea sends them your kitchen drawings and in a few days they tell you how much to install. They don't calculate by linear feet - they look at how many base and uppers you have and the thing that drives up the installation price are the drawers. They cost more to assemble and install than cabinets. They put on any Ikea hardware for free and charge $7 a knob/pull if it's not Ikea (needless to say I went with Ikea!) I had an island (an L really) and got charged an extra $100 to secure it to the floor. My electrician had to run the wires for under cabinet lighting before Traemand came in and then he has to come back to finish connecting the wiring, otherwise your under cabinet wires show. If you buy a stock/laminate countertop from Ikea, Traemand will install it, otherwise Ikea contracts out with a stone yard to do that (I actually used Home Depot and just arranged for them to come template the day after Traemand). Contractor installs appliances last and plumber does dishwasher and line to fridge for icemaker/water filter. Yes, Traemand will do all toekicks and filler, although my contractor needed to remove the toekicks for the floors to be refinished, but I have hardwood. Hope this helps - I just had everything done a month ago and still am in the process of finishing so it's all fresh in my head....See MoreRelated Professionals
