[quote=Anonymous]Kitchen Reno: original estimate 50K. Luckily we thought it was ridiculous and didn’t think for a minute we could do what we wanted for 50K. Ended up being about double that. I think the estimate was assuming a different layout, etc. Luckily, our budget was pretty flexible and we were more focused on getting done what we wanted, and were expecting a higher estimate. If your budget is less flexible you will need to bring in 2-3 estimates and know in advance if you plan on major re-arranging, etc. [/quote]
