Kitchen remodel cost calculator for remodeling contractors
In short
Brift adds a kitchen remodel budget calculator to a remodeler’s website: the homeowner picks the scope (cosmetic, mid-range, high-end) and sees a cost range. Remodelers spend fewer consultations on budgets that do not match, and the agent books the design visit for those that do.

What your visitors ask before they call
- What does a mid-range kitchen remodel cost?
- Can we keep the same layout to save money?
- Do you handle permits?
- How long will we be without a kitchen?
- Do you design the cabinets in-house?
- Can you open a wall into the dining room?
What the calculator asks
- Scope
- Cosmetic refresh, mid-range and high-end remodels have very different budgets.
- Layout changes
- Moving plumbing, gas or walls adds trades and permits.
- Cabinets
- Usually the largest single line: stock, semi-custom or custom.
- Counters and appliances
- Stone counters and pro appliances move the total quickly.
Price ranges for the trade
The calculator never shows a firm price: a range, then the next step you choose (booking, call-back, detailed quote).
