Why our cabinetry and joinery network handles full Melbourne kitchen rebuilds

VBA-registered renovators matched

Every renovator routed for a full kitchen rebuild holds their own registration with the Victorian Building Authority for the work they carry out. Details appear on the quote.

Fixed-price written contracts

Full kitchen rebuilds run on a fixed-price written contract. Variations require written sign-off before any extra work begins on site.

Free in-home design consult

The matched renovator visits at no cost, walks layout and material options, and prepares a fixed-price quote with no obligation to proceed.

We operate as a referral and matching service for full kitchen rebuilds.

We do not hold a builder registration ourselves. See the disclaimer for the full terms.

Common Full Kitchen Renovations questions in Melbourne

How much does a kitchen renovation cost in Melbourne?
Most Melbourne kitchen renovations land between $25,000 and $60,000 fully fitted. A budget refresh (door fronts, benchtop, splashback, no layout change) typically starts around $12,000 to $30,000, while premium renovations with natural stone, custom joinery and a butler's pantry can exceed $80,000. Figures are indicative only - the renovator we match you with provides a written fixed-price quote.
How long does a kitchen renovation take in Melbourne?
Allow roughly 6 to 12 weeks from contract signing to handover for a mid-range full renovation. Cabinetry and stone fabrication take around 4 to 6 weeks as a lead-in, on-site work runs 2 to 4 weeks, and finishing adds 1 to 2 weeks. Lead times on cabinets, stone and appliances drive the front half of the project.
What is a butler's pantry and is it worth it?
A butler's pantry is a secondary prep and storage room behind the main kitchen, often with a second sink and bench. It keeps the main kitchen clear for entertaining and is one of the most-requested features on larger Melbourne renovations. Whether it suits depends on your floor plan and budget - the renovator can model it at the design stage.
Are soft-close drawers and doors standard?
Most quality Melbourne kitchen renovations include soft-close runners and hinges (such as Blum or Hettich) as standard. Confirm the hardware brand and whether soft-close is included in the base price when you compare quotes.
Do you do small and apartment kitchen renovations?
Yes - compact galley, single-wall and apartment kitchens are a common request across inner Melbourne. The renovator we match you with can plan storage and bench space for tight footprints, including owners corporation requirements where they apply.
