About Kitchen Renovation
Flooring choices for a kitchen
Porcelain tile handles spills and dropped pans, but the grout needs sealing every 1 to 2 years. Luxury vinyl planks are waterproof and softer underfoot, yet heat from ovens can warp cheap products. Engineered wood looks like real wood but tolerates only limited moisture. Natural stone is durable but slippery when wet unless textured or honed.
Countertop options and their limits
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.
How layout changes shift the budget
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Flooring choices for a kitchen
Porcelain tile rated R10 or higher gives grip and resists water. Vinyl planks handle spills but can fade near strong sunlight. Engineered wood looks warm but may swell if water sits on it. Underlayment quality matters: a 3 mm acoustic layer reduces noise and levels minor subfloor dips.
Cabinet construction and box materials
Cabinet boxes come in three main types: solid plywood, MDF with a melamine skin, or particleboard. Plywood handles moisture best and lasts longer near the sink. MDF gives a smooth paint finish. Particleboard is the cheapest but sags if it gets wet. Ask the maker about the thickness of the side panels, usually 16 mm to 19 mm, and the drawer slide rating.
