The average kitchen remodel includes replacing the countertops, painting and wallpapering, while the average bathroom remodeling project includes new wall treatments, flooring and faucets. These were among the findings of a March 2005 survey of homeowners between the ages of 25 and 70 who remodeled their kitchen or bathroom in the past 12 months.
This information comes from the Home Improvement Research Institute (HIRI), which issued a report, “The Kitchen & Bath Consumer Speaks Out,” commissioned by the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) that detailed the survey's findings.
