Kitchen?

[George Moehlenhoff]

So you walk into a house, know you want to completely redo the kitchen. What ballpark price do you assume for flooring, cabs, countertops, appliances... the whole deal?

[J Scott]

Typical kitchen for us (lower end, $100K retail resale) is about:

- $3000 for cabinets (42" cherry stained)
- $500 for countertops (laminate)
- $1.00 per square foot for vinyl flooring or $5.25 per square foot for solid oak flooring
- $1400 for stainless fridge, range, microwave, dishwasher

So, ultimately it will be between $5-6K for a new kitchen, more or less depending on size.
