Kitchen renovations in Melbourne: your questions answered
Cost, timelines, permits and how to get started: the questions homeowners most often ask before a renovation.
How much does a kitchen renovation cost in Melbourne?
The cost depends on the size of the kitchen, the finishes you choose and whether any structural work is required. A simple upgrade might focus on cabinetry and benchtops, while a full renovation can include layout changes, relocated plumbing and electrical upgrades. After a consultation, we provide a clear written quote so you know exactly what’s included.
How long does a kitchen renovation take?
Most kitchen renovations take between three and six weeks, depending on the scope of work. Projects involving custom cabinetry or structural changes can take longer. We give you a realistic timeline before construction begins and keep you updated throughout the build.
Do I need permits for a kitchen renovation in Victoria?
Cosmetic kitchen renovations usually don’t require permits. If the work involves structural changes, such as removing a load-bearing wall, permits may be required. We’ll advise you on what applies to your project and help ensure the work is compliant.
Do you offer fixed-price quotes?
Yes. We provide transparent written quotes that set out the scope of works, inclusions and key assumptions, so there are no surprises.
Which areas do you service?
We work across Carrum Downs, Frankston, Seaford, Langwarrin, Chelsea, Edithvale, the Mornington Peninsula and the surrounding Melbourne suburbs. If you’re not sure whether we cover your area, contact us and we’ll confirm.
Can you help redesign my kitchen layout?
Yes. We help homeowners improve layout, storage and functionality, from open-plan conversions to a better workflow designed around how you use the space.
Are you licensed and insured?
