Kitchen Refresh Packages

The kitchen has been on the list since the second year in the house. Every cabinet contractor wants to gut and replace; every painter wants to spray and walk; every countertop fabricator wants to template and disappear. Nobody quotes the full project as one number, so the file sits open for three years and the laminate counters keep curling at the seam by the sink. Kitchen refresh packages collapse the procurement into one quote — a single price for the cosmetic refresh, the rental turnover, or the pre-listing package, with every line item written down and the licensed-plumber and licensed-electrician hours named separately. Handis runs the project end to end, sequences the trades, and finishes the punch list. From $5,000 for a rental turnover the property manager needs before the listing photos to $25,000 for a full cosmetic refresh with new cabinet fronts, premium quartz, a tiled backsplash, and lit upper-cabinet glass.

Pricing

Kitchen Refresh Packages Pricing

Package pricing depends on kitchen size, cabinet count, whether fronts are repainted in place or replaced, countertop material, backsplash selection, and whether the existing rough-in supports the new sink and dishwasher. Each package page lists detailed product and labor line items. Licensed-plumber and licensed-electrician sub fees pass through transparently on the quote. Multi-unit rental contracts qualify for volume discount. Request a free estimate for an accurate quote.

Why a Package Beats Four Separate Quotes
Trust

Why a Package Beats Four Separate Quotes

Most homeowners who call us about a kitchen refresh have already gotten three or four quotes from single-trade specialists — a cabinet refacing company, a countertop fabricator, an electrician for the under-cabinet lights, a painter — and none of the numbers add up because none of those quotes price the coordination work that sits between the trades. The refresh-package format collapses the four quotes into one written scope with one number. Handis runs the calendar, sequences the licensed plumber and licensed electrician on the days they are actually needed, owns the punch list, and stands behind the project for a year. The package is the format that turns a multi-year procrastination into a one-to-two-week project.

Estimate

Tell us the kitchen (galley, L-shape, U-shape, island, eat-in), rough square footage, the cabinet count, which package you are leaning toward (cosmetic, rental turnover, pre-listing), and any product preferences you already have — paint color, countertop slab line, backsplash tile, fixture line. We send a written quote with every line and every sub day named.

What Our Customers Say

Recent kitchen refresh package reviews from verified Seattle-area customers and property managers.

Cosmetic refresh on our 1992 Bellevue kitchen. Kept the existing maple boxes, all new shaker fronts in Benjamin Moore White Dove, new quartz, new subway-tile backsplash, new undermount sink, new pull-down faucet, all new pulls, and a re-caulk. Eight working days. The plumber came in for the sink and disposal reconnect, the electrician came in for the under-cabinet lighting circuit. Punch list signed off the day they wrapped.

Patrick and Ellen H., Cosmetic Kitchen Refresh

Rental turnover before listing the unit. Cabinet repaint, counter refresh, new sink and faucet, new pulls, fresh paint. Four working days flat. The standardized white repaint matches our other units in the building and the listing photos came in cleaner than the prior tenant's tour video. We re-listed the unit on day six.

Sasha L., Rental Kitchen Turnover

Pre-listing package on our 1996 Issaquah split-level — we were deciding between a full remodel and selling as-is, and Handis quoted a middle path that hit the appraisal threshold the agent had named. New shaker fronts, quartz, subway-tile backsplash, new sink and faucet, new pulls, repainted walls. Six working days. Closed $30,000 over list.

Daniel and Robin R., Pre-Listing Kitchen Package

Three units in the same Renton four-plex, three turnovers, one contract. Volume discount on the second and third units, all three done in twelve working days with the crew sequenced unit to unit. Same paint, same quartz pattern, same sink, same fixtures across the three. The building finally has a consistent kitchen finish across units.

Marcus T., Multi-Unit Rental Turnover

Cosmetic refresh in a 1929 Wallingford bungalow — original maple boxes too good to replace, so we kept the boxes and added new shaker fronts in Cabinet Coat, butcher-block counter on the island, quartz on the main run, a deep stainless undermount sink, and a swing-arm pot filler the plumber sub installed. Ten working days. The kitchen finally fits the house.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Handis kitchen refresh packages — scope, pricing, scheduling, licensed-sub coordination, and what fits each package.

How much does a kitchen refresh package cost?
A basic rental kitchen turnover starts at $5,000 for a single unit with a cabinet repaint in place, counter refresh, new sink and faucet, paint, and re-caulk. The standard rental turnover with new quartz runs $9,000, and a larger rental with full new fronts and premium quartz runs $14,000. A pre-listing kitchen package runs $8,000 for a small kitchen to $18,000 for a full-size kitchen with new fronts and premium finishes. A cosmetic kitchen refresh runs $12,000 for a small kitchen to $25,000 for a larger U-shape with new fronts, premium quartz, lit upper-cabinet glass, and full backsplash. Each package quote names every product and every labor line. The licensed-plumber and licensed-electrician portions are quoted line by line and pass through transparently.
How do I pick which package fits my kitchen?
Owner-occupied kitchen that you plan to keep for the long haul — Cosmetic Kitchen Refresh. The room reads as new and the spend goes where daily cooking happens. Rental property between tenants or about to relist — Rental Kitchen Turnover. Built for the speed of the relisting window and the per-unit math of a portfolio. Home about to go on the market in three to six months — Pre-Listing Kitchen Package. Scope and spend calibrated against the appraisal and the listing carousel, not against ten more years of cooking. If you are not sure, send us a few phone photos and the goal on the booking call and we will recommend.
What is the difference between a package and an itemized quote?
A package is a fixed scope priced as one number, written line by line, with every product and every labor day named on the quote up front. An itemized quote is a per-line price built around your exact scope. The package format is faster, fixed-price, and warranty-friendly — the per-line quote fits when the scope falls between two packages or includes something none of the three packages covers (custom millwork, an island add, a wall removal). Most homeowners book the package; some book itemized for one-of-a-kind needs.
Do the packages include the plumber and electrician?
The package price includes Handis project management and licensed-sub coordination. The plumber and electrician hours are sub fees that pass through transparently on the quote — you see their names, their hours, and their portion of the price. The plumber handles the sink supply and drain reconnect, the dishwasher reconnect, the disposal swap, the ice-maker line if needed, and any in-wall supply work. The electrician handles new under-cabinet lighting circuits, dishwasher dedicated circuits where missing, GFCI countertop receptacle work, and any hardwired light fixture changes. They pull their own permits for their portion of the work.
What if I want to change the scope mid-project?
You can — and the change goes on a written change order before we touch it. Mid-project additions or substitutions (a different cabinet front, a slab upgrade, an added pendant circuit) are quoted as a delta, signed off, and added to the calendar. The change-order discipline keeps the final invoice the same as the signed total. Surprise line items never appear at the end.
How fast can you start a rental turnover?
Rental kitchen turnovers usually start within seven to ten business days of the booking call, often faster in fall and winter. For property managers and agents on a tight relisting window, we will move appointments to start within forty-eight to seventy-two hours when the schedule allows. Multi-unit contracts get priority scheduling and a single point of contact across the units.
Do you handle the product procurement, or do I?
Either way. We can source every product on the package quote (cabinet paint or fronts, countertop slab, backsplash tile, sink, faucet, pulls, light fixtures, paint) and hold delivery to the install date, or you can supply the products yourself and we stage on arrival. Owner-supplied is fine; specify the model numbers and finish codes on the booking call so we can confirm fit and rough-in compatibility before the calendar locks. Cabinet fronts in particular have a four to six week lead time from most door shops, so the order goes in the moment the front package is signed off.
What if you find a bigger problem under the sink or behind the wall?
We stop and tell you before we proceed beyond what the original quote covers. Soft cabinet bottom from a long-leaking trap, knob-and-tube wiring exposed when the backsplash demo opens the wall, a corroded copper supply nipple inside the wall behind the dishwasher, settled subfloor that the new flooring will telegraph — anything condition-driven goes on a written change order with photos before the work continues. You see the revised number and sign off, then the work proceeds. The licensed-sub portion changes the same way for plumbing or electrical surprises.
Will my kitchen be out of service during the project?
The cooktop and oven usually stay functional through most of the project. The sink and dishwasher are offline for the days the plumber is on site (typically two to three days, not consecutive) and the days the countertop is templating and setting (a roughly seven-day cycle between template and slab delivery during which the existing top is removed and a temporary substrate sits in place). The refrigerator stays connected throughout. We send a written day-by-day on the quote so you know which days each appliance is off.
Do you cover homes outside Seattle proper?
Yes — most of the Puget Sound region is in service area, from north Seattle and Shoreline through Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland, Issaquah, Sammamish, Mercer Island, Renton, Tukwila, Burien, and south to Federal Way and Auburn. Refresh packages on the I-90 corridor (North Bend, Snoqualmie) are covered with a travel premium added to the package price; we will name it on the quote before you sign. Outside that radius we will tell you on the call if the math works.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Handis carries general liability and workers' compensation; every technician has cleared a background screening. The one-year project warranty covers cabinet paint and front install, sink and faucet install, backsplash, pulls, paint, and finishes — if anything in our scope fails inside a year, we come back and fix it at no extra charge. The countertop slab warranty travels with the fabricator (typically 10 to 15 years on quartz). The licensed-sub portion (plumbing and electrical) carries its own Washington L&I-trade warranty, also named on the quote so you know whom to call for what.
