Cost factors
The total cost usually consists of:
- Kitchen units and cabinets: 35-50% of the total
- Built-in appliances: 20-30% of the total
- Worktop and splashback: 10-20% of the total
- Installation, plumbing, and electrical: 15-25% of the total
These percentages can vary depending on the specific situation, chosen brand, and quality of materials.
Why do prices vary?
- Layout type: An island or L-shaped kitchen requires more installation work than a straight layout, increasing labor and plumbing costs.
- Brand and origin: Kitchens from IKEA or DIY chains are considerably cheaper than custom-made units from a specialist kitchen store.
- Worktop material: Laminate is the cheapest option; composite stone (such as Silestone) and natural stone (marble, granite) are significantly more expensive but last longer.
- Plumbing and electrical adjustments: Relocating water, gas, or electrical connections significantly increases installation costs.

Housing characteristics in Miami
Predominantly concrete block (CBS) construction built to Florida's strict hurricane codes defines Miami's residential landscape. Many homes sit in flood zones requiring elevation or flood-proofing measures. Salt air accelerates the degradation of exterior materials, making material selection and protective coatings critical for any exterior project.
