FAQS
What does 312 Kitchen & Bath do?
312 Kitchen & Bath offers remodel services in Chicagoland with contractor, designer and supplier sources for luxury home, bath and kitchen remodeling.
Do you have an office or showroom location I can visit?
Yes! While our corporate office is located in downtown Chicago (by appointment only), we work exclusively with ProSource and Ferguson showrooms for providing our clients luxury remodel design and finish selection options with our expert representatives at our best pricing. They have beautiful showrooms with a plethora of brands, products and materials available in every state nationwide.
How much should I plan to budget for my remodel project?
According to HGTV, Zillow, Home Depot, the National Kitchen and Bath Association, and other leading industry sources, they recommend you budget between 5% to 15% of your home value for a complete kitchen or primary bathroom remodel. The range in cost simply comes down to the size of your space and the quality of your finishes. For example; you could choose a high-end kitchen appliance package that could cost $10K, $15K, $20K or more. Just as you could select a soaker tub for your bathroom that could cost $500 or $5,000 or somewhere in between. However, since you receive our best pricing with full transparency on all of your project finishes, our supplier showroom experts will recommend what is smart for you, your style, and your home value.

And depending on your project scope, they'll create detailed 3D and 2D design drawings, which can help bring your new space to stunning visual life.

How long will my remodel project take to complete?
Every remodel timeline varies, depending on the size and scope of the project, along with the property type, property access or working hours, availability of your selected finishes and supplier delivery dates. Our skilled contractors have every incentive to complete your project as quickly as possible with the quality and attention to detail you expect, as they are not fully paid until the completion of your project. However, if all your finishes are on-site or ready for delivery, most high-end kitchen and bathroom remodels take between 6 to 8 weeks from demolition to completion, excluding major structural or mechanical work, and any unforeseen delays beyond the control of the contractor.

Our luxury remodeling services are intended for a full remodel (down to the studs) or a complete high-end, cosmetic renovation, where most everything is replaced. And with a minimum budget of $25,000.
