Why a Surface Remodel Costs So Much Less
RDC Renovation & Design Concepts is a kitchen tile and countertop contractor in Phoenix, Arizona. A remodel that replaces cabinets and appliances costs far more, because new cabinets add material, layout and installation work that a surface remodel skips. By keeping your cabinet boxes and focusing on the finishes (new countertops, a fresh tile backsplash and updated flooring), RDC changes how the kitchen looks without that cabinet work. If your cabinet boxes are in good shape, it is a way to get a new-kitchen feel without replacing them.

What Changes the Price
- Countertop material: standard quartz or granite costs far less than a rare designer slab, quartzite, or marble.
- Backsplash tile: simple ceramic sits at the lower end; glass, natural stone, or intricate patterns cost more to buy and set.
- Kitchen size & island: more counter, more backsplash, and more floor mean more material and labor.
- Flooring choice: at RDC, LVP runs $4 to $9 per sq. ft. installed; large-format porcelain (24x48 inches and larger) $12 to $22.
- Edge profiles & cutouts: upgraded edges and extra sink or cooktop cutouts add fabrication time.
Backsplash tile choice moves both the look and the price, as in this Scottsdale kitchen.
