Cost Guide

How Much Does a Kitchen Remodel Cost in Chicago?

Every Chicago kitchen renovation is different, but most projects we quote fall into one of three tiers. These ranges reflect labor and materials for a typical Chicago-area kitchen and are meant as a starting point — your free estimate will reflect your home's actual scope.

Cosmetic Refresh

$8,000 – $18,000. Cabinet painting or refacing, new countertops, backsplash, hardware and paint. Layout and plumbing stay put. Typically finished in 1–2 weeks.

Mid-Range Remodel

$20,000 – $45,000. New cabinets, countertops, tile, flooring and lighting, with minor layout changes. This is the most common scope for Chicago condos, two-flats and bungalows. Typically 3–5 weeks.

Full Gut Renovation

$50,000+. Layout changes, moved plumbing/electrical, structural work and premium finishes. Common in vintage greystones and larger single-family homes. Typically 6–8+ weeks.

Chicago kitchen renovation costs are also shaped by building type — condo and high-rise projects often involve HOA approval and freight-elevator scheduling, while vintage two-flats and greystones frequently uncover plumbing or electrical work once walls open up. We walk through these factors during your free, no-obligation estimate so the number you're quoted is one you can actually plan around.

FAQ

Kitchen Remodeling Chicago — Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Chicago?

Kitchen remodel costs vary widely based on scope — a cabinet refresh and new countertops costs far less than a full gut renovation with layout changes. We provide a free, no-obligation estimate based on your specific goals and budget.

How long does a kitchen remodel take?

A cosmetic update (cabinets, countertops, backsplash) typically takes one to two weeks. A full gut renovation with layout changes can take four to eight weeks depending on scope and material lead times.

Do I need a permit to remodel my kitchen in Chicago?

Permits are typically required for plumbing, electrical or structural changes, but not usually for cosmetic updates like painting, cabinet refacing or countertop replacement. We help you understand what your specific project requires.

Can I stay in my home during a kitchen remodel?

Most homeowners stay in their home during a kitchen remodel, though you should expect limited kitchen access during the most disruptive phases. We'll walk you through the timeline so you can plan accordingly.

What's included in your kitchen remodeling service?

We handle cabinets (new or refinished), countertops, backsplash and tile, flooring, lighting and layout updates, and coordinate licensed trade partners for any plumbing or electrical work required.

Is Goodman Painters and Decorators licensed and insured?

Yes. We are a fully licensed and insured remodeling contractor serving Chicago and the surrounding suburbs.

What's the difference between a cosmetic kitchen update and a full renovation?

A cosmetic update keeps your existing layout and plumbing/electrical in place — new cabinet doors or paint, countertops, backsplash and flooring. A full renovation changes the layout, moves plumbing or electrical, and often involves removing walls. Most Chicago kitchen remodels we quote fall somewhere between the two, and we'll help you decide what actually moves the needle for your budget.

Do you handle both the kitchen and bathroom in the same renovation?

Yes. Many Chicago homeowners bundle a kitchen and bathroom remodel into a single project to reduce disruption and get one coordinated timeline. See our bathroom remodeling page for scope details, or ask us for a combined estimate.
