If you are building a kitchen from scratch, you will ultimately feel the burn of a hole in your pocket. On the other hand, irrespective of financial considerations, modular kitchens are popular among the people across the world. However, the availability of fixed price range of standardised units or modules of modular kitchen eventually helps to know your modular kitchen cost. In this context, you can find plenty of websites who offer costly package prices for every module, but if you know your personal preferences and priorities, the overall unit kitchen prices would be obviously budget-friendly. There are basically five major factors that determine the cost of a modular kitchen such as the size of the kitchen, finish and cabinet materials in the kitchen, the accessories you prefer, countertops and backsplash materials, and the appliances.
To begin with the size of the kitchen, the components such as parallel, or U, L, straight, or with island etc. often affect the price of your modular kitchen. Eventually, kitchens that are large in size can have more modules and ultimately more expensive. Secondly, it also depends on your preferences of how you will use your kitchen. For instance, optimum use of modules in an average-sized kitchen will be the preference of a full-time baker whereas a person who does not spend a maximum of his or her time in the kitchen can prefer for fewer modules.
When it comes to finish and cabinet materials, you can choose from several options from the contemporary market such as a polymer, acrylic, laminate, membrane foil etc. Most kitchen makers prefer laminate and acrylic in comparison to other options in the contemporary market. Among all options, acrylic is the costliest because of its characteristics of scratch resistance and glossy look. Then comes the poly UV finish after the acrylic. People who wish to stay in budget prefer laminates. However, the hi-gloss laminate finish is costlier in comparison to the matt.
The accessories should be chosen based on the utilities as well as the ones which will complement the design of the kitchen. If you do not use them will be ultimately a waste of your money. For example, if your family is large, you should prefer a double bin holder, if you prefer the crockery, you should get a plate holder so that they never break. Finally, the Corian, or Quartz, or polished granites may be best or your favourite countertops which will suit your modular kitchen.
