How much does kitchen installation cost?
A basic ‘facelift’ spend of $5,000-$10,000 (replacing benchtops, doors and panels) can revive a kitchen’s appearance and make it look brand new. For major changes involving full kitchen removal and replacement (new appliances, plumbing, electrical and new cabinetry) you should expect to budget between $45,000-$65,000. Each project is customisable to your budget and personal preferences – the sky’s the limit! Our team would be pleased to provide a customised quote for your project.
TIP: Beware of price gouging and quotes that are on the cheaper side to get you across the line. Send us your quote. We will tell you what’s missing (the extras that conveniently pop up later) and help you understand what’s needed for an accurate project cost for your kitchen installation in its entirety.

Why should I use a Registered Builder for my kitchen installation?
It’s always best to use a Registered Builder. Staging the trades and managing things accordingly so that everything happens in the correct order is so important, as is defect checking, which in summary, future-proofs your build. This includes wall to ceiling measurements, cabinetry and door alignment, panels and gapping, hinges and much much more.
We see all too often kitchens being installed before flooring and many instances of incorrect measurements (e.g. trades using client measurements and not checking them) resulting in costly budget blowouts. As an example – if your walls aren’t straight due to differing middle wall and bottom wall measurements, your cabinetry may not fit.
We are expert kitchen installers and design and build stylish, functional, high-quality kitchens. That means no guesswork, no shortcuts, no cheap materials. Going with trusted experts means you get a well-designed, quality build that serves you well.

How long does a kitchen installation take?
A basic refresh (replacing benchtops, doors and panels) will take a week or two, on average. It may take as little as a day in some circumstances, depending on the materials to be sourced. From design to completion, a mid-range installation can take a couple of months due to the time required for design work including ordering, approvals, selections and revisions. Full scale kitchen renovations including demolition and rebuild can take 6 months or longer, depending on the size of your project.
