What did this kitchen cost, and is that typical for Sterling?

This full remodel ran $60K, $75K over about six weeks, a realistic number for a complete same-layout remodel with quality semi-custom cabinetry. Layout changes, custom cabinets, or premium appliances push Sterling projects into the $90K+ range.

Yes, when everything is ordered before demolition starts. Same-layout remodels are the fastest category of kitchen project. The schedule risk isn't construction, it's material lead times, which is why we don't swing a hammer until cabinets have a confirmed ship date.

The Story

A Sterling kitchen, before

Sterling is where EA Home Design is based, and we’ve remodeled more kitchens here than anywhere else. The pattern is consistent: 1970s and 80s homes with original or once-updated kitchens, dark cabinets, tired counters, layouts from an era when kitchens were meant to be hidden.

This is our home market, and it showed. Materials staged through our own showroom, supervisors minutes away, and no lost days waiting on deliveries. That is a large part of how a six-week schedule stays honest.

This kitchen was exactly in that pattern, and the homeowners’ goal was straightforward: a completely new kitchen at a sensible Sterling budget.

Custom cabinetry detail

What we did, and one honest tradeoff

A full remodel in the existing footprint: new cabinetry, quartz countertops, new appliances, updated lighting, and flooring. Same layout, entirely new kitchen.

The honest tradeoff: at $60K, $75K, you keep the existing layout. Moving walls or plumbing would push this project past $90K quickly. For most Sterling homes, the original layout is workable, spending the budget on quality cabinetry and surfaces instead is the better trade.
