What Seattle and Spokane contractors are actually charging.
Washington runs slightly hot compared to the rest of the country. Washington's renovation index is 115% of the national average, with a mid-range kitchen near ~$28,750, a bathroom near ~$13,800, and a full gut remodel near ~$126/sqft.
The short version for Washington: multiply national averages by 115%, then expect Seattle to run higher than Spokane within that range.
A mid-range kitchen in Washington runs near ~$28,750, a bathroom near ~$13,800, and a full gut renovation near ~$126 per square foot. Seattle and Spokane bids can land on either side of those numbers depending on scope and finish level. A kitchen quote in Seattle and the same kitchen quote near Spokane can land far apart.
That 115% number for Washington blends local labor rates with material costs, benchmarked against the national average. The kitchen and bathroom figures assume mid-range work; ~$126/sqft is the whole-home rate.
