What will your renovation actually cost?
Build your project below and watch the numbers respond — investment range, cost breakdown, equity returned, and our transparent four-milestone payment structure. Anchored to real ICR projects completed across the Pittsburgh area.
A mid-range remodel of a kitchen is a $30k–$80k investment that typically returns ~$39k in added home equity.
Cost breakdown
Every line of your project, itemized — materials purchased at cost through our vendor partners, with no hidden markups.
Not a sunk cost.
Unlike most big purchases, a renovation stores most of its value in your home. Of your $55k midpoint, roughly 70% comes back as equity the day the work is done — and it appreciates from there.
Effectively, you live in a transformed kitchen for $16k — the remaining $39k is waiting in your walls when you sell.
Equity projection
Your home’s value with the renovation’s added equity layered on top, assuming ~3% annual appreciation and a 70% typical recoup for kitchen work.
Payment structure
You never pre-pay the whole job. Payments track real construction milestones — shown here against your project’s $55k midpoint.
This is a planning range — not a quote.
It’s anchored to real completed projects, but the real number comes from a conversation about your specific home. Thirty minutes, on site, no hard sell.
