YouTube video (Steve D Valentine, Aug 27, 2023) discussing budgeting options for a small L-shaped kitchen. The speaker asks Wendy for three budget tiers (low/medium/high). Wendy’s recommendations: super-low (DIY paint and change hardware), mid-tier (install solid-surface countertops—estimated $1,800–$2,000), and high-end (replace cabinets and countertops—estimated $5,500–$6,000).

Wendy, give me three ideas of tiers that people could budget for a kitchen. With this kitchen, it's a little L shaped kitchen. So low, cheap end. What can they do to change it? Then the medium and then the high.
Okay, so there's not a lot to do. There's not a lot of space. So super low end. They come in and they paint it themselves, change out the handles. Obviously, we've got a totally different look. The countertops are pretty bad, so we want to do something with those. If we were going to put a solid surface countertop in here, we'd probably be $1800 to $2000 to change the countertops. And then if they really wanted to go all out and change the cabinets and the countertop, probably about 5,500 to 6 grand.
Okay.
