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.

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.

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.

How to verify the finished work

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.

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.

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.

Common problems during renovation

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.

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 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.

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.
