Kitchen remodel cost in Peabody, MA.
What Greater Boston homeowners pay, what moves the price, and how long it takes.
Published market ranges, updated November 2026. Your firm price comes after the quote visit.
The ranges
What a kitchen remodel costs around Boston.
Three tiers, from a refresh to a custom room. Where a Peabody job lands depends on the size, the layout and the finish you pick.
01Refresh
$18,000 to $35,000The cabinets stay. New counters, a tile backsplash, sink and faucet, paint, lighting and maybe the floor.
2 to 4 weeks02Full remodel, same layout
$35,000 to $85,000New cabinets, quartz or granite counters, a tile backsplash, a new floor, with the plumbing and wiring where they are.
4 to 8 weeks03Custom or new layout
$85,000 to $175,000 and upWalls come down or the sink moves. An island, custom cabinets, new plumbing and wiring runs, new appliances.
8 to 16 weeks
These are published market ranges for Greater Boston, from the Cost vs Value 2025 report for Boston, This Old House, the Fixr guides for Massachusetts and the Houzz 2025 and 2026 trends studies. They are not a Becker quote: every job gets its own price after we see the room. See the Boston figures in the Cost vs Value report.
What moves the price
Why two kitchens in Peabody cost different money.
Six things decide where in a band your job lands. Most of them are decided before demo.
- 01
Cabinets
The biggest line on a kitchen. Stock cabinets arrive in weeks; semi-custom in two to three months; custom in three to four. We set, level and finish whatever you choose.
- 02
Counters and backsplash
Laminate, tile, quartz or granite: the same kitchen can move tens of thousands on the counters alone. A tile backsplash is a small line that changes the whole look.
- 03
Moving the sink or the range
Keep the sink, range and fridge where they are and the plumbing, gas and wiring stay put. Move one and a licensed trade opens the floor or the wall.
- 04
The age of the house
Peabody is a mix of older Colonials, Capes and two-families near downtown and postwar ranches and split-levels farther out. Older kitchens hide uneven floors, old wiring and walls that are not square, and paint from before 1978 is handled under the state lead-safe rules.
- 05
The permit
A kitchen remodel in Peabody needs a building permit, and the plumbing, gas and electrical work need their own. Peabody charges $15 for every $1,000 of the value of the work, with a $75 minimum. We file it and build the inspections into the schedule.
- 06
Appliances and lead times
A range, a fridge or a hood on back order holds the finish. We order everything before demo so the kitchen is not out of use waiting for a delivery.
How long it takes
3 to 8 weeks for a full kitchen.
A full kitchen takes three to eight weeks of work once the cabinets are in hand: demo and rough plumbing and wiring first, then inspection, drywall, cabinets, counters, backsplash, floor and fixtures. A refresh that keeps the cabinets takes two to four. Both are estimates: the size of the kitchen, what we find behind the walls and the inspection calendar in Peabody move them.
The kitchen is out of use for the whole job. We plan the order of the work around your house so that time is as short as it can be, close off the work area, protect the rooms next to it and clean every day.
- 3 to 8weeks for a full kitchen
- 2 to 4weeks for a refresh

Permits
The permit in Peabody.
A kitchen remodel in Peabody needs a building permit from the Building Inspectors at Peabody City Hall. Applications go through the city's online permitting portal. Peabody charges $15 for every $1,000 of the value of the work, with a $75 minimum.
We pull the building permit, and the licensed plumber and electrician on the job pull theirs, as Massachusetts requires. The inspections go into the schedule, so you are not the one calling the town. The Peabody building department has the forms and the current fees.
- 01Tell us about the jobChat, call or text, any hour. We book the quote visit right away.
- 02The quote visitWe see the room, measure it and talk through the layout and the finish. The visit is normally free; a job that needs an engineer, an architect or a designer may carry a fee, and we say so first.
- 03A firm price and a scheduleSay yes and we order the materials and file the permit.
- 04The workOne crew does the demo, the rough work, the inspections, the tile and the finish, and cleans up every day. We hand the kitchen back finished.

What Peabody homeowners ask.
How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Peabody?
Published market ranges for Greater Boston run from about $18,000 for a refresh to $175,000 and up for a custom kitchen, with a full remodel in between: $35,000 to $85,000. A Peabody job lands in those bands by its size, whether the layout changes and the tile and fixtures you choose. We give a firm price after the quote visit.
Is the quote visit free?
Normally, yes. A project that needs an engineer, an architect, a designer or a specialized study may carry a fee, and we tell you before the visit, never after.
Who pulls the permit in Peabody?
We do. We file the building permit with the Building Inspectors at Peabody City Hall, and the licensed plumber and electrician on the job pull theirs. The inspections are built into the schedule.
How long does a kitchen remodel take?
A full kitchen takes three to eight weeks of work once the cabinets are in hand; a refresh that keeps the cabinets, two to four. These are estimates: the size of the kitchen, what we find behind the walls and the inspection calendar move them.
Do I buy the tile and the fixtures?
Usually we supply the rough materials and you choose and buy the finish, with our guidance on what works. We can also supply everything, with a budget cap for the finish that you set.
Can I use the kitchen during the work?
The kitchen is out of use for the whole job. We plan the order of the work around your house so that time is as short as it can be, close off the work area, protect the rooms next to it and clean every day.
Reviews
What kitchen clients say.
From Google reviews of our kitchen jobs.
Professional, friendly and knowledgeable! They installed my kitchen backsplash for me and the installer was so meticulous and great at his job. I will definitely call them again for my next remodeling project.
The workmanship is impeccable, and the final result is stunning. It’s rare to find contractors who are this skilled, responsive, and respectful of older homes.
The quality of their work exceeded my expectations, and they completed everything on time and within budget. I also appreciated their attention to detail and how clean they left the worksite every day.
