Few things are more exhilarating than making the decision to remodel a space in your home - especially a vital space like your kitchen or bathroom. You've spent months, maybe even years, dreaming of it. Of course there's the traditional method of reaching out to a general contractor to get things moving, and that's definitely an option. It just may not be the best option. You've probably come across the term "Design-Build" in your many hours of kitchen and bathroom remodeling research. It pops up a lot whenever you start looking into high-level construction or renovation projects - especially the projects that call for unique or personal design touches.

It is important to set a realistic budget. An average complete kitchen remodel in central PA cost somewhere between $35,000 and $60,000, and full bath renovations usually start around $20,000 but can cost up to $40,000. Of course there are a number of factors that determine at which end of the spectrum you're particular project will fall. Additionally, if your design demands a lot of customization or high end luxury features, even the top end of those ranges can easily be exceeded. Decide what aspects of your new kitchen or bath are most important to you.
