Remodeling Costs in the Atlanta Area
Lots of times when I'm taking buyers through a home here in Atlanta, they'll ask what it costs to upgrade, repair, or replace different parts of a home. Of course, these prices can change depending on a variety of factors, like finish level, fixtures you choose, and the contractor you decide to use. But in a general sense, here’s my list of project estimates I often share with my Atlanta buyers:
“These prices can change depending on a variety of factors, like finish level, fixtures you choose, and the contractor you decide to use.”
Replace kitchen appliances: $2,200 - $20,000 depending on the models selected.
Install new kitchen cabinets: $2,000 - $9000.
Install new kitchen countertops: $2,600 - $4,000 for the average-sized kitchen.
Put down new carpet: $8,000 - $13,200 for 1200 square feet of new carpet.
Paint the interior: $1.50 - $3.50 per square foot. Throw in ceiling and trim, and the price increases to $3 to $4 per square foot.
Remove popcorn ceiling: $900 - $3,000.
Run a gas line to the house: $250 - $850 ($15 to $25 per linear foot).
Install a backyard fence: $1,500 - $4,000.
Complete a minor bathroom remodel: Around $10,500 to replace the tub, tile, floor, toilet, sink, vanity, and fixtures.
Keep in mind these are just estimates, and costs will vary zip code to zip code. Atlanta is a big area! Also, if you’re even the slightest bit handy, you can shrink these costs by tackling projects (or parts of projects) yourself.
