What actually moves the number
Four things drive most of the spread in any bid: whether plumbing or electrical moves, whether the layout changes, the finish tier you pick, and what's discovered once things open up. Everything else is noise.
- Moving plumbing or gas lines: adds $2,000–$8,000 on most remodels
- Removing a load-bearing wall with a new header: $3,500–$12,000
- Panel upgrade on an older home: $2,500–$5,000
- Rot or water damage found at demo: highly variable — this is what the contingency is for
Frequently asked.
How much does it cost to remodel a kitchen in Dallas, GA?
Most full kitchen remodels in Paulding and Cobb County run $25,000–$70,000 depending on cabinetry, countertops and whether the layout changes. Cosmetic refreshes start around $12,000.
Why do contractor quotes vary so much for the same job?
Usually because the scopes aren't the same. One bid includes permits, disposal, subfloor repair and paint; another doesn't. Compare bids line by line, not by the bottom number.
