Rules of thumb to calculate cost;
Based upon a 224 square foot kitchen
- Demolition / 224 SF X $15.00 = $3,360.00 this includes all patching and prep
- New flooring / 224 X $20.00 = $4,480.00 this includes all perimeter patching
- New wall finishes / 224 X 9 ft ceilings X $1.50 = $3,024.00
- Assume 20 linear feet of cabinets X $450.00 LF = $9,000.00
- Assume 20 X 2 square feet of countertops X $80.00 SF = $3,200.00
- Appliances / use a total allowance of $2,500.00
- Plumbing fixtures / use an allowance of $1,500.00
- Electrical work / 224 SF X $30.00 SF = $6,720.00
- Plumbing work / 224 SF X $25.00 SF = $5,600.00
- HVAC work / 224 SF X $35.00 SF = $7,840.00 assumes a new system for the kitchen
- Miscellaneous / cleanup/ etc. 224 SF X $5.00 = $1,120.00
Total value for 224 SF of a moderate kitchen = $48,344.00 or $215.82 per SF
