I’ve never done a kitchen makeover before, but HD was quoting $137k for this job. I’m sure it’s correct, but it just felt like they railroaded the entire thing. And she only wanted to talk about replacing the cabinets (and I have 3 options for replacing the cabinets, which I don't really need), someone else would come out to talk about the countertops I guess. I am SURE this is a normal process but I’ve never done it before and I needed someone to help me begin this project. Anyway, that all being said.

The cabinets need to be sanded and painted. I can do that.

The tile is very old and the grout is difficult to clean/work with. We really were looking to replace that. The problem with the tile is that there is so much tile on the walls, so we’d need to get a drywall person to do that.

I can do the cabinets. I can’t work with HD again, they were exhausting and confusing. Are there any other big huge red flags I need to be worried about?

Thanks!!
