        "text": "A kitchen layout redesign alters the physical footprint and placement of major work zones, while a standard remodel typically updates surfaces within the existing floor plan.

A cosmetic remodel leaves plumbing, gas lines, and walls intact, focusing only on replacing cabinet fronts, countertops, and backsplashes. Choosing a redesign makes sense when traffic bottlenecks or awkward appliance placements make daily cooking frustrating, though it requires more planning for structural, electrical, and plumbing changes.",
