This guide walks through every cost driver, explains what separates quality from compromise, and shows exactly what sets a Sebring project apart.
What should you budget for a kitchen remodel, by size and finish level?
Every Sebring kitchen is a genuine design-build remodel, from a finish-focused Basic update to a full layout and structural transformation. These ranges reflect both the size of your kitchen and the finish level you choose, so you can see where your vision might land before we ever meet. Most projects land between the Mid and Upper levels.
Sebring's Small, Medium, and Large categories reflect a blend of overall cabinetry quantity, room scale, and layout complexity rather than square footage alone. Two kitchens with the same floor area can land in different size categories depending on layout, island size, and the number of secondary zones like a pantry or bar.
Large Kitchens
Typically most projects land between Mid and Upper levels
Large Basic
Finish-Only Kitchen Update
Details:
Open AllCabinetry
Standard cabinet designs with minimal decorative detail and a limited range of color and finish options.
iCountertops
Entry-level quartz or similarly priced surfaces with standard edge profiles and limited opportunities for slab selection or pattern matching.
iLayout & Structural
The existing kitchen footprint remains largely unchanged. Appliances, plumbing, walls, windows, and doorways generally stay in their current locations.
iLighting
Basic recessed lighting or replacement decorative fixtures using the existing electrical layout, with limited layering, control, or integrated cabinet lighting.
iTile & Backsplash
Standard ceramic, porcelain, or subway tile installed in a straightforward pattern with limited custom detailing.
iFixtures
Standard faucets, sinks, cabinet hardware, and plumbing fixtures selected primarily for availability and price.
iDesign & Project Management
The same dedicated interior designer, project manager, detailed drawings, defined scope of work, agreed project price, and project communication included at every Sebring level, applied to a smaller, finish-focused project.
iAppliances (purchase cost; design and specification are included)
Design and specification for standard appliance packages, often installed in existing locations without custom panels or significant utility changes. Appliance purchase cost is not included in the published investment range.
What This Level Includes
At the Basic level, you get Sebring's full design-build process, the same team and the same standards, applied to a smaller, finish-focused scope, here's exactly what that includes, and what it doesn't.

This level includes a dedicated designer and project manager, an agreed project price, and the same 1-year workmanship warranty, with conditional extended coverage that may apply through years 2 through 5, as every tier. It does not include custom-sized cabinetry, layout or structural changes, a layered lighting plan, or expanded material and finish options, the kind of scope found at Sebring's Mid and Upper levels.
Large Mid
Curated Kitchen Remodel
Details:
Open AllCabinetry
Custom overlay cabinetry with tailored sizing, curated finishes, upgraded storage, finished end panels, and cabinetry designed specifically for the room. This is where Sebring's process actually begins: instead of adapting stock sizes to your kitchen, we build the cabinetry around it, so storage, proportions, and finish all work together rather than being pieced in afterward.
iCountertops
Premium quartz or selected natural-stone surfaces with upgraded edge details and thoughtful coordination between the countertop, cabinetry, and backsplash. At this level, the countertop is chosen alongside everything else in the room, not picked in isolation, so the material, the edge profile, and the surrounding finishes are considered together from the start.
iLayout & Structural
Targeted layout improvements such as relocating appliances, adjusting plumbing or electrical locations, enlarging an island, improving circulation, or modifying non-load-bearing walls. This is usually where a kitchen starts to genuinely work better, not just look newer, since even modest changes to circulation or storage can solve the daily frustrations a finish-only update can't touch.
iLighting
A layered lighting plan that may include recessed lighting, decorative pendants, under-cabinet lighting, dimmers, and improved task lighting. Rather than working around your existing wiring, we design the lighting as its own layer of the plan, so task light, ambient light, and accent light are each doing a specific job instead of one fixture trying to do all three.
iTile & Backsplash
Curated porcelain, handmade-look, or mosaic tile with more thoughtful patterns, transitions, and installation details. The tile gets the same consideration as the cabinetry and countertops, chosen for how it transitions into the rest of the room rather than selected on its own.
iFixtures
Designer-grade faucets, sinks, cabinet hardware, and plumbing fixtures selected to complement the complete design. Each fixture is chosen to complete a specific look, not just to fill a spot on a checklist, so finishes and hardware carry through consistently across the whole space.
iDesign & Project Management
A dedicated interior designer and project manager, detailed drawings, 3D renderings, coordinated material selections, a defined scope of work, agreed project price, and JobTread project communication. This is the part of the process that tends to matter most: one team guiding the project from first idea through final walkthrough, so you are not coordinating vendors or tracking decisions on your own.
iAppliances (purchase cost; design and specification are included)
Design and coordination for upgraded appliance packages, including utility planning, ventilation requirements, and cabinetry integration. Appliances are planned into the cabinetry and utilities from the beginning, so panels, ventilation, and clearances are worked out ahead of time. Appliance purchase cost is not included in the published investment range.
What This Level Includes
At the Mid level, you get a complete design-build experience across cabinetry, countertops, lighting, tile, fixtures, and appliances, all managed by one dedicated team, here's exactly what that includes, and what it doesn't.

This level includes custom overlay cabinetry, premium countertop surfaces, a full lighting plan, and coordinated selections across the room, all guided by a dedicated designer and project manager. It does not include extensive load-bearing structural work, fully bespoke architectural millwork, rare natural-stone installations, highly specialized lighting systems, or large-scale reconfiguration of adjoining rooms, the kind of scope that usually calls for the Upper level instead.
Large Upper
Luxury Kitchen Reimagining
Details:
Open AllCabinetry
Custom inset or highly detailed cabinetry with specialty finishes, integrated appliance panels, furniture-style elements, custom interior storage, decorative millwork, and a one-of-a-kind hood or focal feature. This is where cabinetry starts to function as architecture rather than storage, with details like inset construction, custom millwork, and a signature hood built specifically for that kitchen and that kitchen only.
iCountertops
Quartzite, marble, premium quartz, or other distinctive surfaces with individual slab selection, intentional veining, slab matching, specialty edges, waterfall details, or full-height stone backsplashes. At this level you're typically selecting the actual slab in person, matching veining across seams intentionally rather than leaving it to chance, since the stone itself becomes one of the room's defining features.
iLayout & Structural
Significant reconfiguration that may include removing or modifying walls, engineering load-bearing openings, relocating major utilities, changing windows or doors, expanding into adjoining spaces, or creating a new pantry or secondary kitchen zone. This is the level where the kitchen can genuinely become a different room, not just a refreshed version of the one you have.
iLighting
A complete lighting program incorporating task, ambient, decorative, cabinet, accent, and architectural lighting with coordinated controls and dimming. Every layer of light is planned and controlled together, so the space can shift from bright and functional during the day to warm and layered in the evening.
iTile & Backsplash
Natural stone, artisan tile, handcrafted materials, custom patterns, specialty trim, or full-height slab installations. Tile at this level often becomes a focal point in its own right, whether that's a full-height slab backsplash or a hand-laid pattern that couldn't be replicated at a smaller scale.
iFixtures
Premium plumbing fixtures, workstation or specialty sinks, pot fillers, prep faucets, integrated water systems, luxury hardware, and coordinated finish collections. Fixtures are selected as a complete collection rather than individually, so every finish, from the faucet to the cabinet hardware, is intentionally coordinated.
iDesign & Project Management
Full design-build leadership with expanded design development, detailed custom drawings, 3D visualization, showroom and vendor coordination, trade-partner planning, agreed-price preparation, and comprehensive construction management. The complexity at this level calls for deeper coordination, so the design and construction teams are working through more detail, more trade partners, and more custom fabrication before a single wall opens.
iAppliances (purchase cost; design and specification are included)
Design and coordination for professional or luxury appliance packages, including integrated refrigeration, specialty cooking equipment, custom ventilation, and beverage refrigeration. Appliances are fully integrated into the cabinetry and design, often disappearing behind custom panels. Appliance purchase cost is not included in the published investment range.
What This Level Includes
At the Upper level, cabinetry, stone, lighting, and fixtures are treated at their fullest scale, guided by the same one accountable team, here's what sets this level apart.

Kitchen Remodels Across Franklin and Brentwood
Every project below was designed and built by our in-house team. Each one reflects a homeowner who trusted us with one of the most important spaces in their home.
A kitchen remodel is not a construction project. It is a twenty-year decision.
The kitchen is the room your family uses more than any other. It is where mornings happen, where homework gets done, where people gather without being invited. A kitchen remodel done well pays back in daily pleasure for as long as you own the home. Done poorly, it costs more to fix than it would have cost to do right the first time.
Sebring Design Build exists to give Williamson County homeowners one experience: a remodel that finishes on time, on budget, and true to the agreed design. Every detail in this guide reflects that commitment.
Back to TopThe seven decisions that drive kitchen remodel cost
Every kitchen remodel investment comes down to seven decisions. Understanding each one puts you in control of your own project from the very first conversation.
Cabinetry
Largest single investmentThe single largest line item, with the widest range in quality.
See Details
Cabinetry
Largest single investmentThe single largest line item, with the widest range in quality.
See Details
Cabinetry is the single largest line item and the decision with the widest quality range. Two cabinet packages can look similar in a showroom photograph. The difference shows in how the drawers feel ten years from now, whether the doors stay aligned, and whether the box construction holds up to real use.
- Full-overlay vs. inset construction: visual and functional difference, significant cost spread
- Dovetail drawer boxes with soft-close glides vs. stapled boxes with basic slides
- Painted finishes require more prep, more coats, and more careful handling than stained
- Semi-custom vs. custom: filler strips vs. cabinetry built to your exact dimensions
Big-box semi-custom cabinets often require filler strips and awkward corner solutions because standard sizes don't fit your kitchen. Sebring works with regional cabinet makers whose product is built to your space from the start.
Countertops
Mid-range investmentFabrication, seams, and edge profile matter as much as the material.
See Details
Countertops
Mid-range investmentFabrication, seams, and edge profile matter as much as the material.
See Details
The countertop is the most touched surface in the kitchen. Material choice affects maintenance, durability, and how the kitchen ages. The cost difference between a quartzite slab and a laminate surface is not just material. It is fabrication, seam placement, edge profile, and support structure.
- Natural stone (quartzite, marble): unique, requires sealing, premium fabrication skill
- Engineered quartz: consistent pattern, low-maintenance, wide price range by brand
- Waterfall edges and book-matched slabs add fabrication time and material cost
- Slab quality varies significantly within the same material category
Confirm how your proposal handles a slab that arrives cracked or color-mismatched. Sebring confirms and orders all materials before construction begins, and replaces any slab that doesn't meet standard before your kitchen is opened.
Layout Changes
Variable | the line item that surprises most homeownersStructural and mechanical changes carry the widest range of hidden cost.
See Details
Layout Changes
Variable | the line item that surprises most homeownersStructural and mechanical changes carry the widest range of hidden cost.
See Details
Moving a wall, relocating a sink, adding an island, or opening a kitchen to an adjacent room changes the structural and mechanical scope of the project entirely. These decisions separate a cosmetic refresh from a true transformation and carry the greatest range of hidden cost.
- Load-bearing wall removal: structural engineering, beam sizing, temporary shoring
- Sink relocation: plumbing rough-in, drain line, vent stack rerouting
- Island addition: electrical circuits, plumbing if a prep sink is included, structural blocking
- HVAC rerouting when layout changes affect ductwork paths or register locations
Confirm whether layout changes are priced as allowances, with the real cost billed later as change orders, or scoped and priced upfront. Sebring scopes and prices every structural and mechanical change in the initial agreed project price, which significantly reduces the risk of mid-project surprises.
Lighting Design
Smaller investment | large quality impactThe three layers of light many kitchens are missing
See Details
Lighting Design
Smaller investment | large quality impactThe three layers of light many kitchens are missing
See Details
A properly designed kitchen has three layers of light: ambient light for the room, task light for work surfaces, and accent light for depth. Confirm whether your proposal includes a designed lighting plan or simply fixture and electrical allowances. A designed lighting program changes how the kitchen feels at every hour of the day.
- Recessed layout planned for task zones, not ceiling symmetry
- Pendant selection coordinated with cabinetry finish and hardware program
- Under-cabinet lighting: hardwired LED strip vs. plug-in afterthought
- Dimmer controls for ambient and accent zones
Lighting is almost never specified in a general contractor's bid. It is added at the end, by whoever the electrician uses. Sebring's designers specify the complete lighting program before the first wall opens.
Tile and Backsplash
Smaller investment | high visual impactInstallation craft matters as much as the tile itself.
See Details
Tile and Backsplash
Smaller investment | high visual impactInstallation craft matters as much as the tile itself.
See Details
Tile choice affects both material cost and labor cost. A modest tile installed with careful attention to layout, grout joint consistency, and pattern execution looks better than a premium tile installed carelessly. Installation craft is as important as material selection.
- Confirm setter qualifications, layout expectations, and labor scope for specialty patterns. Complex patterns such as herringbone generally require additional layout, cutting, and installation labor compared to a straight horizontal run.
- Handmade tile (zellige, terracotta) requires experienced setters and adds labor cost
- Large-format tile requires a flatter substrate and more precise layout planning
- Grout color selection changes the entire visual character of the installation
Many contractors use whoever is available to set tile. Sebring uses tile setters with specific experience in the materials being installed. Pattern accuracy and layout planning are part of the scope.

Hardware is the jewelry of the kitchen. Two pulls at opposite ends of the price range both open a cabinet door. The difference is weight, finish durability, and whether the finish holds its character in ten years. Faucets, sinks, and pot fillers are touched every day and selected as part of a coordinated finish program.
- Finish consistency across faucet, hardware, and lighting is a designed decision
- PVD finishes in champagne bronze, matte black, and polished nickel vary in durability
- Unlacquered brass develops a natural patina by design, not by accident
- Apron-front sinks require cabinet modification and structural support
Confirm whether hardware and plumbing finishes are selected as a coordinated package or left to you at the end of the project. Sebring's designers select hardware as part of the overall finish program, coordinated with cabinetry, countertop edge, and lighting from the start.

A general contractor who bids a kitchen is not a designer. The selections may be whatever the sub recommends. The drawings may be a rough sketch. Design and project management are not overhead. They are the difference between a kitchen that feels considered and one that merely got built.
- Full design phase: measured drawings, 3D renderings, material selections, specification sheets
- Agreed project price confirmed before any work begins
- Dedicated project manager, one person, one phone number, throughout
- Materials ordered and confirmed before construction begins
Confirm whether design is included in the proposal, provided separately, or not offered at all. Sebring's design fee delivers a complete design before any money is committed to construction.
What a Sebring Proposal Includes
Many remodeling bids are incomplete by design. A Sebring proposal is different because it includes everything required to deliver the result, not just start the work.
| Sebring Proposal | What to Verify in Another Proposal |
|---|---|
| Full design phase documented | Is design included, separate, or owner-managed? |
| Agreed scope and price before construction | When is final construction pricing established? |
| Materials selected before construction | When are products selected and ordered? |
| Dedicated project manager | Who is the homeowner's primary construction contact? |
| 1-year workmanship warranty, extendable through year 5 | What workmanship warranty is provided? |
| Integrated design-build team | Who is accountable for design/construction coordination? |
| Lighting plan developed before construction | Is lighting design part of the scope? |
Honest answers on timeline
Selecting and ordering materials before demolition helps reduce material-related construction delays. Sebring orders everything before demolition begins as part of holding the schedule.
Back to TopWhat Homeowners Ask Before Scheduling a Consultation
What is the price range for a kitchen remodel with Sebring?
Sebring kitchen remodels range from $75,000 to $400,000 or more, depending on kitchen size and finish level. Small kitchens start around $75,000, Medium kitchens around $95,000, and Large kitchens around $120,000. Most projects land between the Mid and Upper levels for their size.
What does the Basic tier include?
Basic is a finish-focused remodel with standard cabinetry, entry-level quartz, and no layout changes. It includes the same dedicated designer, project manager, and agreed project price as every other tier, just applied to a smaller scope.
What does the Mid tier include?
Mid is a complete design-build remodel with custom overlay cabinetry, premium quartz or natural stone, a dedicated designer and project manager, and an agreed project price. It typically runs $105,000 to $250,000 depending on kitchen size.
What does the Upper tier include?
Upper is where most Sebring kitchens land. It includes custom inset cabinetry, quartzite or premium natural stone, a complete lighting program, and significant layout or structural changes when needed. It typically runs $155,000 to $400,000 or more depending on kitchen size.
Why does the price vary by kitchen size within the same tier?
Larger kitchens require more cabinetry, more countertop material, and more fixtures at every finish level, so the investment scales with square footage. A Mid-level Small kitchen and a Mid-level Large kitchen include the same design-build process and material quality, just more of it.
What does every Sebring kitchen remodel include, regardless of tier?
Every Sebring kitchen includes a tailored design process with a dedicated interior designer, detailed plans and renderings, an agreed project price with costs confirmed before construction, materials ordered ahead of time, dedicated project management, and a 1-year workmanship warranty with conditional extended coverage that may apply through years 2 through 5, subject to the terms of your Construction Agreement.
What is typically not included in a Sebring kitchen remodel quote?
Permit fees, code-required smoke detector upgrades, painting or staining, decorative light fixtures, and appliance purchase cost are not included in the base investment, though design and specification for these are part of every project. These are addressed directly with your designer during planning to help avoid surprises once construction begins.
Does Sebring provide appliances as part of the remodel?
Sebring designs and specifies appliance packages at every tier, from standard packages at the Basic level to professional or luxury packages with integrated refrigeration at the Upper level, and coordinates ventilation, utility, and cabinetry requirements around your selections. Appliance purchase cost itself is not included in the published investment range.
How does Sebring confirm the investment before construction begins?
After the design phase, Sebring provides an agreed project price with every line item specified: cabinetry, countertops, tile, fixtures, hardware, lighting, labor, and any structural or mechanical scope. You approve the number before a single wall opens.
Can I supply my own appliances or tile?
Sebring sources and orders all materials as part of the process, including appliances, tile, cabinetry, and fixtures. This keeps everything coordinated with your design and construction timeline and helps keep the agreed price and timeline aligned.
