Kitchen Budget Planning Tips
Planning your kitchen remodel budget involves considering several key elements that can
significantly affect the overall cost. Below is a detailed overview of what to keep in mind
when budgeting for a kitchen remodel in Seattle.

Cabinet Selection
Shopping for kitchen cabinets should definitely be the first step. In most cases, you’ll be
Choosing between:
– American-style cabinets
– Traditional cabinets
– Shaker-style cabinets
These options are typically more budget-friendly.

If you’re aiming for a high-end or contemporary kitchen design, your best choice would be:
– Frameless cabinets
– European-style cabinets

Frameless cabinets provide modern storage organizer options and creative solutions for:
– Corner cabinets
– Pantry units
– Lazy Susan systems

Custom Cabinetry Solutions
Some homeowners want to keep their existing cabinets but extend the kitchen space. In
such cases, custom cabinetry becomes necessary. Once custom-matching cabinets are
installed, it’s often required to:
– Refinish the existing cabinets
– Repaint the full kitchen cabinetry set

Due to the added labor and materials, this option can often cost more than installing Brand-
New Kitchen Cabinets.

Flooring Considerations
Flooring is another important budget factor — especially if you’re changing the existing floor plan. Depending on your project, you might need to:
– Install new flooring
– Re-doing existing floors

Appliances
Appliance costs vary significantly depending on your preferences, brands, and features. This
part of the budget can be highly flexible depending on how high-end or basic your appliance
choices are.

Structural Work

Structural modifications can have a major impact on your kitchen remodeling budget. If
you’re going for a stylish and open-concept kitchen design, removing a Load-Bearing Wall
may be necessary to:
– Open up the space
– Allow more natural light
– Improve layout flow

Structural Work may include:
– Replacing a Load-Bearing Wall with a Load-Bearing Beam
– Adding additional footings to maintain the home’s stability and structure

Specialty Work

Certain technical and trade-specific tasks may also be required during a kitchen remodel.
These include:
– HVAC modifications
– Electrical work
– Plumbing
– Gas line installation
– Ductwork
– HVAC modifications

Sometimes painting can also be required.

Countertops
Countertops are one of the most important design and functional elements in any kitchen.
Popular options include:
– Quartz countertops
– Granite countertops
– Marble countertops
– Quartzite countertops
– Porcelain countertops
– Butcher Block countertops

Lighting Features

Frameless vs. Shaker Cabinets

In frameless cabinets, the cabinet boxes are usually white, with decorative panels applied on the exterior, available in various colors. However, the interior of the cabinet often remains white, which may be visible at the bottom of wall cabinets or when the door is open, exposing the white interior.

On the other hand, Shaker-style cabinets are fully painted or finished both inside and out, giving them a more uniform and polished look.

However, frameless cabinets provide more options for internal cabinet organizers and more advanced hardware mechanisms. They also allow for creative storage solutions, such as Lazy Susan cabinets, giving them an advantage in terms of functionality compared to traditional Shaker-style cabinets.
