A good budget for a kitchen remodel depends on the value of your home and your financial situation. As a general rule, you should not spend more than 15% of your home’s total value on a kitchen remodel.

For example, if your home is worth $200,000, a good budget for a kitchen remodel would be $30,000. This budget should cover everything from materials and labor to appliances and fixtures.

It’s also important to set aside a contingency budget for unforeseen expenses. This is typically 10-20% of your total budget. So, if your total budget is $30,000, you should set aside $3,000 to $6,000 for unexpected costs.
