2026 cost guide
What does a kitchen remodel cost in Salem?
Real ranges from 65 years of remodeling kitchens in the Willamette Valley. The biggest factors are size, how much the layout changes, and the selections you choose.
Typical ranges
| Level | What it includes | Typical investment |
|---|---|---|
| Cosmetic | Counters, backsplash, sink, faucet, light fixtures, hardware, flooring, paint | $20,000 to $60,000, depending on size and selections |
| Pull and replace | New cabinets, solid surface counters, tile backsplash, flooring, plumbing and lighting fixtures, paint | $50,000 to $90,000 |
| Custom reconstruction | Floor plan changes, custom cabinets, plumbing and electrical moved, high end finishes | $90,000 to $150,000+ |
Ranges reflect C&R projects in the Salem area with design, materials and construction included. Your proposal will be specific to your home.
What moves the number
- Moving plumbing, gas or walls costs more than keeping the layout
