The most common question we hear from St. Petersburg homeowners is: "What will my kitchen remodel actually cost?" The honest answer is that it depends — but here is a detailed breakdown based on real projects we have completed in Pinellas County.
| Tier | Cost Range | What Is Included |
|---|---|---|
| Refresh | $30,000 – $50,000 | New countertops, backsplash, paint, lighting, hardware, select cabinet updates |
| Mid-Range | $50,000 – $100,000 | Full cabinet replacement, new appliances, flooring, layout adjustments |
| Premium | $100,000+ | Custom cabinetry, structural changes, high-end appliances, designer finishes |
Cabinetry is typically the largest single cost, representing 30-40% of the total budget. Semi-custom cabinetry from brands like KraftMaid runs $15,000-$35,000 installed. Custom cabinetry starts at $30,000 and can exceed $80,000 for a large kitchen.
Countertops are the second-largest cost. Quartz from Cambria or Caesarstone runs $80-$150 per square foot installed. A standard kitchen with 40 sq ft of countertop costs $3,200-$6,000 for quartz.
Labor in Pinellas County has increased significantly since 2022. Budget 25-35% of your total project cost for skilled labor including carpentry, plumbing, electrical, and tile work.
