I was up in Denver doing some work on my Mom's house and a salesman in Home Depot asked about kitchen remodels. I was considering doing that so I had them come out and give me a bid. Bottom line is nothing fancy, no crazy designs and the price came in at 151.00/ft installed. I was shocked and disappointed. I also lost all confidence in their services offered and will never waste my time again. I know the "35.00/ft installed price" sign at the entry of every HD was a joke but really?
I was curious about what others have paid for an "out the door" price for a good granite counter top. I thought 75.00/ft was the norm.
They also quoted me 10K to reface 16 cabinets. I asked him why I would do that when I can have new decent cabinets installed for less. His response was that it would be faster than waiting 6 weeks for new cabinets to be built.
So if you are in the market, I would not even waste my time with them.
