[quote=Anonymous]I mean, we did it ourselves 15 years ago in a small L-shaped kitchen, where the long part of the L was about 18' and the short part was 10'. Cabinets were $1000, removed from a friends remodel. A used sub-zero fridge was $1500, a used wall oven was $300, a used wine fridge $150, a clearance farmhouse sink was $650, new faucet $600, new stove and hood was $3000. about $3000 for clearance countertops cut to size but installed by us. Flooring (again off craigslist, $150) installed by us. When I had the place prepped for sale 8 years later, I spent another $2500 on painting the cabinets, new fridge & new cabinet hardware, etc. We moved the sink and dishwasher but the plumbing stack actually went under the new location. So it was a reasonable cost but only because all of our time and labor did not cost hard dollars, and no structural work was done. (we didn't need to move electrical circuits or the plumbing stack.) The list price of the items I put in was closer to $45,000, and that was in 2010. I spent untold hours scouring marketplace and craigslist and auctions for what I needed. So yeah, if you can't reuse cabinets, even ikea is going to cost you a pretty penny. [/quote]
