For many Mid-South homeowners, the kitchen is more than a cooking space—it is the social hub of the house. Yet outdated layouts, worn cabinetry, and rising material costs can stall even the most enthusiastic renovation plans. CountBricks brings an entirely new way to tackle kitchen remodeling Memphis TN projects: AI-powered estimating, real-time voice collaboration, and instant blueprint takeoffs. By merging cutting-edge technology with local construction know-how, we shorten timelines, tighten budgets, and raise quality on every residential job.
The traditional estimating cycle—manual measurements, pencil math, and back-and-forth phone calls—can add weeks of delay. CountBricks replaces guesswork with live AI estimates generated as you describe your dream kitchen. Our system references current Memphis material pricing, regional labor rates, and historical CountBricks project data to create an itemized cost breakdown in minutes.
When inspiration strikes, simply open the CountBricks mobile interface and start talking. Homeowners, designers, and subcontractors can join the same voice channel, refining scope, finishes, and budget in real time. Adjust your island dimensions, swap tile selections, or add a pot-filler faucet—updated figures appear instantly in the shared estimate.
Upload a floor plan or even a smartphone photo of a sketch. CountBricks AI reads dimensions, wall locations, and opening sizes to produce exact material quantities. Framing lumber, cabinet counts, tile square footage, and appliance rough-ins are captured automatically, eliminating the rework that often inflates Memphis remodel costs.

Memphis’ expansive Yazoo clay can settle unpredictably, affecting floor levels and cabinet alignment. CountBricks laser scans subfloors before installation, recommending shimming or self-leveling underlayment where needed.
Midtown, Cooper-Young, and Central Gardens often require specific trim profiles and color palettes. Our estimating engine tags SKUs that meet neighborhood guidelines, preventing costly change orders down the road.
High summer humidity can warp unsealed woods. CountBricks suggests kiln-dried framing lumber and moisture-resistant cabinet boxes, then bakes those choices into the live budget so you can see value versus price instantly.
