Where you live. Local labor costs, demand and travel time move prices up or down from the national average.

How to pay less

Refinish or paint if you only want a new color. It's the cheapest option.
Reface instead of replacing when the boxes are solid and you like the layout.
Add organizers and new hardware at the same time to save on a second visit.
Compare at least two or three quotes for the same scope. Pros on Job Hound never pay for leads, so no lead fee is built into their price.
