How do you compare kitchen remodel estimates?
To compare kitchen remodel estimates, make sure each one prices the same scope, then compare them line by line instead of by the total. Bids that are far apart often differ mainly in what they include.
Check how each estimate handles demolition and disposal, permits, the cabinet line, the countertop material and edge, electrical and plumbing work, allowances for items not yet chosen, and the schedule. Low allowances can make a bid look smaller than the final cost will be.
Also look up each license at cslb.ca.gov, ask who will supervise the job day to day, and read the payment schedule. A remodeler who explains what could change the price is usually easier to work with than one who doesn't.
