The Complete Guide to Kitchen Remodeling in Salt Lake City & Surrounding Areas (2025 Edition)

A kitchen remodel is one of the most rewarding investments you can make in your home. Whether you're dreaming of a more functional space, a modern aesthetic, or better energy efficiency, remodeling your kitchen can dramatically improve your daily life—and boost your property value.

At United Brothers Remodeling, we’re proud to be the trusted choice for kitchen remodeling across Salt Lake City, Murray, West Valley, Taylorsville, Bountiful, Alpine, Cottonwood Heights, Sandy, Draper, Lehi, Park City, Saratoga Springs, South Jordan, and West Jordan.


In this blog, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about kitchen remodeling in Utah—from trends and planning tips to materials, timelines, and how to choose the right contractor.


Why Remodel Your Kitchen?

Homeowners throughout Utah are choosing to remodel their kitchens for a variety of reasons:

  • Outdated Design: Older kitchens often feel cramped, dark, and inefficient. A modern layout can breathe new life into the space.
  • Improved Functionality: Add an island, open up the floor plan, or upgrade storage with custom cabinets.
  • Energy Efficiency: Upgrading appliances, lighting, and ventilation can lower energy costs.
  • Increase Home Value: Kitchen remodels offer some of the highest ROI among home improvement projects.

Whether you live in Bountiful, South Jordan, or the heart of Salt Lake City, your kitchen should reflect your lifestyle and the latest innovations in comfort and design.

Planning Your Kitchen Remodel: Step-by-Step

1. Define Your Goals

Start by identifying your must-haves:

  • Do you need more storage?
  • Are you looking to entertain more?
  • Want to open up the layout?

This clarity will guide your budget and design direction.

2. Set a Realistic Budget

The average cost of a kitchen remodel in Salt Lake City ranges from $15,000 to $60,000, depending on scope, materials, and layout changes. Budgeting tip: set aside 10–20% for unexpected costs.

3. Choose the Right Contractor

A local contractor with strong community ties—like United Brothers Remodeling—ensures accountability, communication, and top-quality results. We have extensive experience working in all cities we serve, including Lehi, Park City, and Alpine.



Kitchen Remodeling Trends in Utah for 2025

Want your kitchen to feel fresh and current? Here are the top trends we’re seeing across Draper, West Valley, and beyond:

  • Two-Tone Cabinets: Contrasting upper and lower cabinets in bold colors like navy and matte black.
  • Quartz Countertops: Durable, non-porous, and elegant—perfect for high-traffic kitchens.
  • Open Shelving: A sleek way to showcase dinnerware or decorative items.
  • Smart Kitchens: Think touchless faucets, smart lighting, and app-connected ovens.
  • Minimalist Hardware: Hidden pulls and push-to-open cabinets create a clean, modern vibe.

Key Features to Consider in Your Remodel

Custom Cabinets

Custom cabinetry adds functionality and style. From soft-close drawers in Sandy to spice pull-outs in Cottonwood Heights, we design around your needs and space.

Countertops & Backsplashes

Whether you're in Taylorsville or Saratoga Springs, we offer expert installation of quartz, granite, and butcher block countertops paired with stylish backsplashes to complete the look.

Flooring

Luxury vinyl, hardwood, or tile—each has its pros. We help you choose the right material based on your home’s layout, lifestyle, and climate.

Lighting

Layered lighting (ambient, task, and accent) makes your kitchen both functional and inviting. We often install under-cabinet LEDs and pendant lights in homes across Murray and West Jordan.
