[quote=Anonymous]I got an estimate in December 2021 for kitchen remodel. $50k (10 x 10 kitchen, not too luxurious.) In April 2022 the estimate was revised to well over 70K. I brought it down to 60 by eliminating pendant lights over the sink, a couple of glass-front cabinets, and switching from solid hardwood floor to engineered wood (thin layer of hardwood on top of cheap core.) Work started July 2022 and ended September 2022. Ended up costing $70k even after my cuts. [/quote]
