Laminate costs less but tolerates heat poorly. Quartz and granite handle daily use well but need sealing every 1 to 2 years for granite. Solid surface can be repaired if scratched, while butcher block requires oiling every few months. Ask about the thickness in mm, seam locations, and who measures the final template.
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.
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.
Ask for the payment schedule, the warranty on labour, and the warranty on materials. Request references from kitchens finished in the last 12 months. Confirm who handles permits, delivery coordination, and final cleaning. Also ask which days the crew works and how noisy phases are scheduled around your routine.
A kitchen renovation can mean changing cabinets, countertops, flooring, lighting, plumbing, or the whole layout. Some jobs stay cosmetic: paint, hardware, a new sink. Others remove walls, move gas lines, or relocate the range. Decide early if you want a refresh or a structural rebuild, because the scope changes the team you need and the permits involved.
Keeping the sink, range, and refrigerator in place keeps cost down. Moving the sink means new supply and drain lines, often 2 to 4 meters each. Relocating a gas range requires a licensed gas fitter and pressure testing. Removing a non-load-bearing wall is cheaper than relocating a load-bearing one, which may need a steel beam and an engineer's sign-off.
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.
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.
Hidden water damage appears after demolition, usually behind the sink or under the dishwasher. Old wiring fails inspection, forcing a partial rewire. Cabinet lead times stretch from 4 weeks to 12 weeks when stock is low. Countertop measurements taken before the cabinets are level lead to gaps. A 10 mm tolerance on cabinet alignment prevents most fit issues.
Open every drawer and door. Run water in the sink while the dishwasher drains to check for gurgling. Test every outlet with a plug-in tester. Place a level on the countertop and across the floor. Confirm the range hood actually pulls air, not just blows it. Walk the room with the contractor and write a punch list before the final payment.
