Interiors editor

Nadia Vogel

Covers kitchens, bathrooms and flooring, where budgets are set per square foot and blown by change orders. Tracks what a remodel costs when the layout stays put, and what it costs when it moves.

How this desk works

How Nadia Vogel costs a project

Interior remodels are priced on a plan and paid on a reality. Nadia separates the two: the cabinet and tile numbers that hold, and the plumbing relocations, subfloor repairs and code upgrades that surface once the walls are open. Every kitchen and bath guide here carries the same question, which is what the same room costs if you leave the drains where they are.

Every figure published under this byline is an indicative national bracket, reviewed against the sources listed in our How we price.
