What moves the price in Lexington

  • Tile material (ceramic/porcelain vs. natural stone or glass mosaic)
  • Room prep — subfloor leveling, old tile/mortar removal, waterproofing for wet areas
  • Pattern complexity (diagonal, herringbone, large-format) and tile size
  • Local labor rates and permit needs for larger renovations
  • Access/logistics (upper floors, tight bathrooms) and rush timing

Licensing and permits in Kentucky

No state licence. Municipal. Kentucky has no statewide general contractor license — check with your city/county (e.g., Louisville Metro Construction Review) for local registration requirements, and confirm any subcontractors doing plumbing/electrical/HVAC carry their state DHBC license.

Residential building permits in Kentucky are issued locally — by the city or county building/construction-review department (e.g., Louisville Metro Construction Review, Lexington Division of Building Inspection) — applying the statewide Kentucky Building Code and Kentucky Residential Code, not by a single state office. In Lexington, permits come from the City of Lexington Division of Building Inspection.

Tax: General home repair/remodeling labor is still exempt in Kentucky, but since HB 8 (2023) and HB 487 (2018) expanded taxable services, labor tied to services like landscaping, janitorial work, and labor/installation charges for installing tangible personal property are taxable — check the current taxable-services list on the state's TaxAnswers site before quoting a job.

Best time to book in Lexington

Bathroom/kitchen renovation season runs spring through summer; book in late fall or winter (Nov–Feb) for shorter lead times and better pricing. Peak demand: March, April, May, June, July and August. Typical job length: 1-4 days per job (single room or wet-area job); larger multi-room floors can run longer.

DIY or pro? A handy homeowner can DIY a small backsplash or single-room floor, but showers/tubs need correct waterproofing (membrane, slope-to-drain) that a pro should handle to avoid costly water damage later.
