Is that your only quotation?

Can't comment much as I did my reno a year ago and chances are pricing could have been changed. So it is better u get more quotations and compare. I believe u should have many other quotation to compare prices with.

Just one comment, from your quote i guessed that u r keeping the kitchen cabinet structure and changing the door and some modifications. But have you consider redoing everything, tearing down and redesign the kitchen cabinet to your taste/liking.

Your total for kitchen store room item 1 to 6 is already 2.2k. Why not get a new one, pfr is about 190 to 260 top and bottom, 10 ft give 1.9k to 2.6k, kitchen top about 700 for 10ft.

So taking 1.9k + 700 = 2.6k for a new one compare to 2.2k old and modified.

Please check with your contractors the price for cabinet.

U r welcome. FYI, should u decide to do a new kitchen cabinet, take note that the installation of sink, hood, stove and oven is free.
