Kitchen Remodel Costs in Utah (2026)

The kitchen is the heart of the Utah home — and remodeling it is the #1 home improvement project in the state. Here's what to expect to spend.

Cost by Scope

Minor Refresh ($8,000–$20,000)

• Cabinet refacing or paint
• New countertops (laminate or butcher block)
• New appliances
• Updated lighting and hardware

Mid-Range Remodel ($20,000–$55,000)

• Semi-custom cabinets
• Quartz or granite countertops
• Tile backsplash
• New appliances (mid-range)
• Flooring replacement
• Updated electrical and plumbing

High-End Renovation ($55,000–$120,000+)

• Full custom cabinetry
• High-end appliances (Sub-Zero, Wolf)
• Premium stone counters
• Structural changes (open floor plan)
• Full electrical and plumbing overhaul

What Drives Cost

1. Cabinet quality — the single largest cost driver (30–40% of budget)
2. Layout changes — moving walls or plumbing adds 15–30%
3. Appliance tier — range from $3,000 to $30,000+
4. Countertop material — laminate to quartzite

ROI

A mid-range kitchen remodel in Utah returns approximately 60–70% at resale. High-end returns are lower percentage-wise but significantly increase time-on-market.
