If you are changing the layout of your existing kitchen, and creating a more elaborate layout design, this will have price implications. Custom features influence the budget upward. The amount of cabinetry and the choice of cabinetry affects both material and labor costs.
Speaking of materials, the selection you make for your kitchen renovation can significantly impact the overall cost.
