About Kitchen Renovation

Typical timeframes for each phase

Demolition takes 1 to 3 days for an average home kitchen. Cabinet installation needs 2 to 4 days once units are delivered. Countertop measuring happens after cabinets are fixed, then fabrication takes 7 to 14 days. Tile or flooring work adds another 3 to 5 days, so total time often falls between 4 and 8 weeks.

Lighting and electrical planning

Plan at least 3 circuits: ambient ceiling lights, task lighting under cabinets, and appliance outlets. LED strips with 3000K to 4000K colour temperature suit most kitchens. Ask how many sockets will be added and where, since extension cords across work areas are a safety risk. Confirm breaker capacity with the professional.

How to verify the finished work

Check that doors and drawers align within 2 mm and close fully. Run water in the sink for 10 to 15 minutes and inspect underneath for leaks. Test every outlet with a small appliance. Keep a punch list of small defects to fix before final payment, since corrections are easier when they are written down.

Countertop options and their limits

Quartz resists stains and needs no sealing. Granite is hard but porous, so it asks for yearly sealing. Solid surface seams disappear but scratches easily. Butcher block feels warm but stains and marks from knives. Each material has a maximum unsupported span over dishwashers and sinks, usually 300 mm to 600 mm. Ask about that before ordering.

What pushes the price up

Custom cabinetry costs more than flat-pack, and exotic wood veneers add 20 to 40 percent. Moving plumbing or gas lines adds labour and inspection fees. Stone slabs priced per square meter rise with veining and rarity. Structural changes need an engineer and sometimes a permit. Last-minute design changes after ordering always cost more than deciding early.

Cabinet construction and materials

Cabinet boxes come in MDF, plywood, or solid wood. Plywood resists moisture better than MDF in areas near the sink. Drawer runners should be rated for at least 30 kg if heavy cookware will be stored. Soft-close hinges last longer than basic models, so ask which brand and model the quote specifies.

Common problems during renovation

Cabinets arrive with the wrong dimensions, causing delays of 2 to 4 weeks. Hidden water damage behind tiles is often discovered during demolition, raising the cost. Appliances may not fit the planned openings. A written change-order process helps handle these surprises without arguing about money on the spot.

Typical time for each phase

Planning and quotes usually take 2 to 4 weeks. Demolition needs 1 to 3 days. Rough plumbing and electrical run 3 to 5 days. Inspection and wall closure add another week. Cabinet installation often takes 1 to 2 weeks. Countertop measuring, fabrication, and fitting need 10 to 15 working days. Flooring and final finishes can stretch the project by 1 to 2 more weeks.

Lighting and electrical planning

A kitchen needs three lighting layers: ambient ceiling fixtures, task lights under the cabinets, and accent lights on a toe kick or inside glass cabinets. Plan circuits so the microwave, refrigerator, and dishwasher each sit on a dedicated breaker. Add USB outlets near prep zones and check that every switch sits where wet hands can still reach it.

What counts as a kitchen renovation

A full renovation usually replaces cabinets, countertops, flooring, lighting, plumbing connections, and appliances. A partial one may keep the layout and only change doors, handles, or the worktop. Ask the professional to write down which elements are included before any contract is signed. This avoids paying twice for the same item later.
