Kitchen Remodeling – Change Orders

The public has as impression we love these things because we make lots of money on them during a Kitchen Remodeling project. This couldn’t be more false, if you are dealing with reputable Contractors. These things always cost more than they’re worth. We can never charge enough for them, because they are always too much to begin with! Plus they mean a ton of paperwork. Then, even though it’s the customer asking for the additional work or product, it’s always the Contractors fault the whole project escalated in price! Hhmm, I think I was venting. Best scenario – listen to your Designer and Contractor during Estimating and Proposals, you will probably wind up going with the products they suggest in the first place. That’s not to say there won’t be Change Orders. There are what we call Hidden Conditions in remodeling. Things like termite damage, insufficient joist sizing, etc., that may have to be addressed. We always advise clients to consider 5%-10% of the Contract price as a reserve for change orders on larger jobs. For additional information about Kitchen
