We have been designing kitchens, baths, closets and other home remodeling projects since 1977 in Central Florida! We have seven showrooms to serve you - Longwood, Winter Park, Windermere, Palm Harbor, Sarasota, Melbourne and Tampa. Our award winning team can help you get the home of your dreams on budget and on time...without the stress!
"I decided it was time to re-do my old, outdated, ugly master bathroom. I initially thought I would try to save money and hire a DIY/one-man fixer upper, but soon realized that was taking up too much of my time and I could never find anyone dependable. I did some research and found S&W Kitchens (Longwood showroom). I liked that they were family owned and had been around for a long time. My first encounter was with Amy who would be my design lead. Our first meeting was to talk about the whole process of what and how working with S&W Kitchens would entail. She was very thorough and made things very easy to understand. Once we got through that stage, meetings were set up discuss my vision of what the bathroom would look like. I did have several photos and a concept of what I was wanting to do which did help in that process, as well as helpful suggestions from Amy. Once everything was decided, Amy did a fantastic job in every aspect of putting together the materials that were needed to begin the job and following through to completion. My next point of contact was with Adam who was the construction supervisor. He arranged and scheduled the various trade subcontractors and always kept in touch with me on who would be showing up and when. If I had any issues during the renovation Adam was there to answer any questions, fix any problems, and make sure I was pleased with how things were going. I now have a beautiful bathroom and I couldn’t be more happy. S&W does it ALL and I would highly recommend their company for any of your renovation needs. Anne R. 5/20/25"

The 30% rule serves as a guideline suggesting that renovation costs should not exceed 30% of your home's current market value. This principle helps prevent over-investing in improvements that the market may not fully reward upon resale.
For example, if your property is valued at $200,000, keeping your renovation budget under $60,000 provides better financial returns. However, this rule should be balanced with your personal goals and how long you plan to remain in the home.
A $50,000 budget can effectively transform several spaces if carefully allocated. This amount covers a moderate kitchen refresh combined with a bathroom update, or several less complex rooms like bedrooms and living areas.
Your geographic location, material choices, and the extent of structural changes significantly impact what this budget can accomplish. Focusing on cosmetic improvements rather than major layout changes helps maximize your investment across multiple spaces.
Labor constitutes the largest expense in multi-room remodels, accounting for 40% to 70% of total costs. Kitchen and bathroom spaces demand the highest investment due to their specialized fixtures, cabinetry requirements, and necessary plumbing work.
Premium materials such as natural stone countertops, hardwood flooring, and custom cabinetry also significantly increase project costs. Strategic budgeting that balances splurges and savings helps manage these high-cost elements effectively.
Most multi-room remodeling projects require three to six months from start to completion, though complex renovations may extend longer. The process follows a necessary sequence of demolition, structural work, mechanical rough-ins, finishing, and final detailing.
Timeline variables include material availability, contractor scheduling, inspection delays, and unexpected conditions discovered during construction. Establishing clear communication with your contractor and making prompt decisions helps maintain momentum throughout the project.
Begin with foundational and structural modifications that affect multiple spaces before progressing to individual rooms. Address "wet" areas like kitchens and bathrooms next, as these involve the most complex work with plumbing and specialized installations. Complete bedrooms and living spaces last to prevent damage to newly finished areas.
This logical progression minimizes redundant work and creates at least one functional living zone throughout the renovation process. Coordinating related work across different spaces also improves efficiency and potentially reduces costs.
