Many things in life can be boiled down to one central concern: What\u2019s this going to cost me? When it comes to remodeling a kitchen, the answer isn\u2019t always straightforward. The size of your space, the scope of work involved, your DIY abilities, the quality of materials you choose and even your geographic location all play a part. But if you\u2019re going into it blind,\u00a0a new study from Houzz<\/a>, which surveyed more than 1,700 users about their kitchen renovations,\u00a0can give you a solid jumping-off point and offer ideas on how you might allocate that budget.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Let\u2019s first take a look at some overall average breakdowns based on the size of a kitchen. The survey distinguishes between large kitchens (200 square feet or more) and small kitchens (less than 200 square feet).\u00a0This Los Angeles kitchen<\/a>\u00a0would be considered large at 295 square feet.<\/p>\n We start with size because your square footage will generally dictate the amount of materials you\u2019ll spend money on, so it\u2019s a good baseline. That isn\u2019t to say a 200-square-foot kitchen in New York City will cost the same to remodel as a 200-square-foot kitchen in Houston. Again, a lot of other factors will be at play.<\/p>\n The following are averages of costs reported by homeowners in the survey, and can give you an idea of how to start budgeting.<\/p>\n
