At Farquhar, a new kitchen is an investment in your home. Bring your new locally made, custom designed kitchen to life, in the most surprisingly affordable way.
Below we’ve provided a guide of what to expect for your kitchen renovation and some important factors to consider.
We also have an interactive Kitchen Cost Estimator to calculate your own kitchen estimate, based on the style and size of your renovation.
How much does a kitchen renovation cost?
This is one of the most common questions we get asked – and the answer is difficult to define, because it varies! No kitchen renovation is the same, and the cost is heavily dependent several factors;
Size
Is the renovation a small galley in a unit? Or a large open plan L-shape with island and butler’s pantry?
Scope
Is there major building work involved, like removing walls, or moving doorways or windows? Is there a layout change needing services like plumbing and electrical to be relocated?
Selections
Are the finishes of benchtops, cabinets, appliances, and hardware standard or premium?
What does stay the same with every kitchen renovation is the process, which involves measure, design, selections, manufacture, installation, project management, and trade work. With Farquhar, your entire project is skilfully managed from start to finish by our experienced team, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.
