Remodeling Project Pricing Guide: Your Dream Remodel Awaits
Forget the guesswork and conflicting advice you’ve seen online — let’s get real about what it takes to create the space of your dreams. Remodeling isn’t just about knocking down walls and picking out paint; it’s about turning your home into a space that’s perfectly tailored to you. And here’s the best part: you don’t need to have a clear vision to get started. We’re experts at drawing out your ideas, even if you’re not sure what they are yet. From luxurious touches to smart, functional upgrades, we’re here to make sure every detail speaks to your style and lifestyle.
We know online cost estimates can be frustratingly all over the place — some might even make you think you can remodel a kitchen for the price of a weekend getaway. Spoiler alert: you can’t. You want real information, right? Thanks for digging into it! We want you to rely on trusted, vetted sources like the Cost vs. Value Report to give you reliable, realistic pricing based on real projects in the Minneapolis area, done by real contractors. Cost vs. Value is a yearly report conducted by Zonda Media and Remodeling Magazine to track the typical cost of remodeling projects across the country, and the typical return on that investment after one year. You can check out the full nationwide report here: www.costvsvalue.com .
Of course, we’ve fine-tuned those findings to fit Two Island Design Build — adjusting for the level of concierge service, curated materials, and attention to detail that our clients have come to expect, as well as our own estimating software and actual trending costs for similar projects. You’ll find that this guide ranges from midlevel updates to high-end transformations, so you can approach your project with ease and confidence.
And if your dream remodel doesn’t quite fit into one of the categories here? No problem. Just reach out, and we’ll carve out the perfect space for you — no cookie-cutter solutions, just personalized brilliance.
