Kitchen Remodel Cost
Las Vegas, NV — 2026 Guide

Planning a kitchen remodel in Las Vegas? The most common question we get is: how much is this going to cost me? The honest answer depends on scope — but we'll break down real numbers from jobs we've done across Las Vegas, Henderson, and Summerlin.

Kitchen Remodel Cost Ranges in Las Vegas (2026)

What Drives the Cost Up?

Cabinets are the biggest line item — typically 30–40% of a kitchen remodel budget. Stock cabinets from Home Depot cost far less than semi-custom or custom built. In Las Vegas homes, we see a lot of 1990s–2000s tract homes with dated cabinetry that just needs a smart, cost-effective upgrade.

Countertops vary widely. Laminate runs $20–$40/sq ft installed. Quartz runs $70–$130/sq ft. Granite sits in between. For most Las Vegas kitchens, quartz is the most popular choice — it handles the heat and doesn't need sealing.

Layout changes cost the most. Moving a sink, adding an island, or relocating a wall triggers plumbing, electrical, and potentially structural work. If you can keep the layout, you save a lot.

Las Vegas-Specific Considerations

Hard water damage is extremely common here. If your existing plumbing has mineral buildup or corroded fixtures, budget for replacement. We regularly find this when opening up walls in homes built in the 1990s across Henderson and Summerlin.

Ventilation matters more here. Desert cooking, combined with high summer temperatures, means a quality range hood isn't optional — it's essential. Budget $300–$1,200 for a proper vented hood installation.

Tile backsplashes are very popular in Las Vegas and add significant visual impact without huge cost. Expect $800–$2,500 for a standard kitchen backsplash depending on tile choice and complexity.

How to Get the Most for Your Budget

• Reface instead of replace: Cabinet refacing (new doors and drawer fronts) costs 40–60% less than full replacement and looks brand new.
• Keep the plumbing where it is: Moving the sink is one of the fastest ways to add $2,000–$5,000 to your budget.
• Upgrade appliances yourself: We install, you buy. Buying appliances during sale events (Black Friday, Memorial Day) and having us install saves real money.
• Prioritize countertops and hardware: These have the highest visual impact per dollar spent.
• Get a written estimate before anything starts: No reputable Las Vegas contractor will start without one. If they do, walk away.

How Long Does a Kitchen Remodel Take?

A basic refresh takes 1–3 days. A mid-range remodel with cabinet replacement typically takes 2–4 weeks depending on cabinet lead times. A full gut remodel can take 6–12 weeks. We give you a realistic timeline upfront — no surprises.
