Want the real quote, done for you?
This is a rough number. Vorkeon builds the full kitchen remodel quote from one sentence:
- Materials with waste, and crew time from your own pace
- Current prices from building-supply stores near the job
- A clean PDF with your logo that the customer signs on their phone
- Then the invoice, reminders and your crew's hours, in one app
What drives the price of a kitchen remodel job
- Cabinets. Stock, semi-custom and custom cabinets are the biggest price swing.
- Countertops. Laminate, quartz and stone, priced by area plus cut-outs.
- Layout changes. Moving the sink, range or walls means plumbing, gas and electrical work.
- Appliances. Who supplies them, and whether new ones need new circuits or venting.
- Backsplash and flooring. Often priced as their own lines.
- Lead times. Waiting on cabinets or counters affects the schedule.
A worked example
A made-up example, not a price guide. 20 linear ft of lower cabinets at 400 material (cabinets and counter) and 150 labor per foot: 20 × 550 = 11,000. Add 1,200 for backsplash and 1,500 for electrical and plumbing hook-ups, for 13,700. With 20% markup the quote is 16,440 before sales tax. Cabinet and counter prices vary a lot by supplier and region.

Kitchen remodel quoting questions
Why price a kitchen by linear foot of cabinets?
Cabinet run length tracks closely with cabinet and counter cost, which are most of a kitchen budget. It gives a quick first number; the detailed quote then lists each item.
Should countertops be measured before or after cabinets go in?
Most fabricators template after the cabinets are installed, so the counter fits the real cabinets. Use an estimate for the quote and note that the final size is set at templating.
How do I price a kitchen remodel job?
Multiply the length of lower cabinets by your material and labor cost per linear foot, then add your markup to cover overhead and profit. Add tax on top when you send the quote.
What markup should I use?
Use the markup that covers your overhead (vehicle, insurance, tools, office) and leaves the profit you want. Many contractors land between 15% and 35%, but your own costs decide it.
