When deciding whether or not to take on a remodeling project, homeowners must weigh several different factors, one of the most important being resale value. With the multitude of TV reality shows demonstrating unrealistically fast and cheap remodels, it is critical to consult a reference that provides realistic pricing estimates of remodels done by a professional contractor. Quality Renovations of Berthoud assists potential clients in understanding the true price of a project by using Remodeling’s Cost vs. Value Report for the Mountain region.
For more than twenty years, the Cost vs. Value Report has been an invaluable tool for homeowners who are debating whether or not to invest in large scale home improvements. Take a look at this year’s remodeling report to see estimates on basement, bathroom and kitchen remodels or family room, deck, master suite and two-story additions in the Denver metro area. For each type of job you can click on a midrange or upscale example to see an extensive description and three-dimensional illustration. For example, some of the components for a midrange minor kitchen remodel would be to:
- replace cabinet fronts with new raised-panel wood doors, including new hardware
- replace wall oven and cooktop with new energy-efficient models
- replace laminate countertops; install midpriced sink and faucet
- repaint trim, add wall covering, and remove and replace resilient flooring
