How the estimate is built
Line items first, total second. Each calculator starts from typical US per-square-foot cost bands for the individual jobs in a remodel — cabinets, tile, plumbing, labor and so on — then scales them by your room size, finish level (Budget, Mid-range or High-end) and a regional labor factor for the Northeast, Midwest, South or West. The low–high range you see is the honest spread between a lean job and a generous one at that finish level.
Estimates, not quotes. Real bids move with layout changes (moving a wall or a drain costs far more than swapping finishes), local permit rules and your contractor's schedule. Treat the range as a planning budget and a checklist: when a bid comes in far outside it on a specific line, that line is worth a question.
What usually costs the most
In kitchens, cabinets and labor dominate — together they often account for half the budget. In bathrooms, labor and plumbing dominate, which is why small bathrooms still carry a real price tag. Keeping the existing layout — same walls, same fixture positions — is the single biggest lever for staying near the low end of any range on this site.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a kitchen remodel cost?
A mid-range kitchen remodel commonly lands between about $140 and $260 per square foot in the US — roughly $21,000–$39,000 for a 150 sq ft kitchen — but the real figure depends heavily on region, layout changes and finish level. Use the kitchen calculator on this page for an itemized low–high range for your size and region.
How much does a bathroom remodel cost?
A mid-range bathroom remodel commonly runs about $190–$380 per square foot, so a 60 sq ft bathroom often falls in the $11,500–$23,000 range before regional adjustments. Small bathrooms cost less in total but more per square foot because plumbing and labor are spread over fewer feet.
