How Much Does It Cost To Renovate A Kitchen?
Before embarking on any renovation project, its important to know what you can expect the project to cost. Particularly when it comes to big ticket item like the kitchen. I'm here to lift the lid on the unknown and share with you some recent benchmark pricing on kitchen renovations, based on my industry expertise.

These prices will vary depending on the materials chosen, amount of structural work and your geographic location. Decisions such as choosing natural stone over engineered stone, extending benchtops materials into splashbacks and relocating the kitchen will naturally add to the scope of works and require a greater investment. Likewise, if you live in a remote geographic area or if your kitchen is difficult to access (i.e. cliff side or hill top) you can also expect additional costs.
+EXCLUDES APPLIANCES
If you plan on replacing appliances, you'll need to allow additional funds. These can vary greatly depending on your brand preferences and desired functionality. Entry level kitchen packages range from $3500-$5000. European brands range from $7000-$15,000. Luxury appliances such as Zip Taps and Wine Fridges should also be factored in.
