Kitchen and bath remodeling in Melrose, Arlington and nearby towns
On our 2020–2025 projects, a kitchen remodel together with a bathroom cost $165,000–$360,000 and took 15–22 weeks to build, after 4–6 weeks of design and 1–2 months for permits. Ranges are the middle half of what homeowners paid, change orders included, appliances not.
How the price builds
Doing the kitchen and a bath together is one project, one schedule and one crew. Here is how the ranges compare. Same numbers as our cost guide, because they come from the same table.
Bars on one scale, $0–$550k. Includes labor, materials, permits, project management and change orders. Appliances are separate; you buy them and we install them.

Across 14 projects like this we built from 2020 to 2025. Cabinets, tile and plumbing fixtures are the choices that move these projects most.
A sample kitchen and bath schedule
Before we start: 4–6 weeks of design, 1–2 months for permits, and every selection made at least 45 days ahead so the schedule holds. Then about 13 weeks on site when nothing has to wait, and 15–22 weeks on most real jobs.
Black = rough work, gold = finishes, light gold = counters being made after templating. ◆ = a payment, so you pay as the work reaches each stage. Daily logs and a Friday summary in Buildertrend the whole way. Based on our standard kitchen and bath schedule; other work is added to it, and your schedule is set before you sign.

Lexington Kitchen and Two-Bath Remodel“We recently had Pegasus renovate our kitchen and both bathrooms. We’re talking removing a wall, moving radiators, upgrading electrical, moving plumbing and appliances—the kind of job we knew would overwhelm us really quickly. Thankfully we chose Pegasus, who made the whole thing pretty easy.”
