Kitchen Soffit Framing Cost

Construction ITEM DESCRIPTION

Construction estimating unit cost for framing soffits over kitchen cabinets. You can also use this unit cost for any type of soffits.

Unit Size

One lineal foot of soffit.

Labor Costs

We figure that a skilled carpenter can install about 12 lineal feet of soffit per hour.

Material Costs

We figure 1.6 lineal feet of 2x4 lumber per lineal foot.

The framing uses 2x2 lumber, so the labor includes the cost to rip lumber to that size. If you purchase 2x2 lumber directly, you can decrease the labor cost slightly.

Suggested Quantity

No suggestion. You'll need to estimate the approximate footage of soffits required, depending on kitchen construction details.

Source of Construction Pricing

Based on job costing data from numerous remodeling projects done by Turtle Creek Construction.
