What our clients say
Engaged with Inspiration Homes for complete kitchen remodel. Confident that changes were strategic to maintain and actually improve structural quality of home.
Inspiration Homes does excellent work. Very meticulous and on time at a fair price. I highly recommend getting a bid from them.
We have remodeled three previous homes. Our experience with Inspiration Homes is by far our best.

What a kitchen with us typically looks like
Investment, from our 2026 Franklin and Brentwood kitchen remodeling guide:
- Cosmetic refreshFranklin $28,000–$48,000Brentwood $32,000–$55,000Countertops, cabinet painting, backsplash, lighting
- Mid-range remodelFranklin $60,000–$100,000Brentwood $70,000–$115,000Cabinet replacement, flooring, appliances, island
- Full gut renovationFranklin $95,000–$140,000Brentwood $110,000–$160,000Custom cabinetry, layout reconfiguration, full finishes
- High-end build-outFranklin $140,000–$220,000+Brentwood $160,000–$250,000+Sub-Zero/Wolf/Thermador, custom millwork, structural work
Brentwood projects typically run 10 to 20% higher than Franklin at the same scope. Tariffs on imported cabinetry, fixtures and tile have pushed material costs up roughly 8 to 12% compared to early 2025, and we build a 10 to 15% contingency buffer into every project estimate from the start. These are general ranges, not a quote: you receive a transparent proposal with scope, timeline and cost before any work begins.
Timeline: about 4–8 weeks of design and selections, then 10–16 weeks of construction for most kitchens — typically 4–6 months from first conversation to finished kitchen (longer with custom cabinetry or structural changes).

Kitchen remodeling FAQ
Kitchen remodeling in Franklin runs $60,000 to $100,000 for a mid-range full renovation in 2026, and $70,000 to $115,000 in Brentwood. Full gut renovations run $95,000 to $140,000, and high-end build-outs $140,000 to $220,000+. Cosmetic refreshes start around $28,000. After your complimentary consultation and design, you receive a transparent proposal with scope, timeline and cost before any work begins.
A $40,000 budget covers a focused cosmetic update, not a full renovation: new countertops, refinished or painted cabinet boxes, a tile backsplash, upgraded lighting, and a new sink and faucet. New cabinet boxes, layout changes and a complete appliance package are outside that budget.
