Kitchen Renovations in Gilston

Our kitchen renovations service in Gilston

What older homes here tend to hide in Gilston

In older stock the surprises are consistent: undersized or cloth-wrapped wiring, waste lines that no longer meet fall requirements, out-of-square openings, asbestos sheeting in wet areas and eaves, and floor levels that step between additions. We check for all of it at inspection and price the fix rather than leaving a provisional sum that blows out later. A mix of 1980s brick homes, timber cottages and larger acreage residences, many with outbuildings, verandahs and decks that need renewal.

Design and cabinetry

We plan the kitchen around how you actually cook and gather - bench runs, appliance placement, drawer versus door storage, bin and pantry positions. Cabinetry is made to measure rather than adjusted from stock modules, so you get usable storage in every millimetre.

Stone, splashbacks and appliances

Engineered or natural stone benchtops templated after cabinetry install, splashbacks in tile, stone or glass, and full appliance integration including rangehood ducting and dishwasher plumbing. Appliance specification is locked before cabinetry is manufactured to avoid costly rework.

Plumbing, electrical and finishing

Relocated sinks, new power and lighting circuits, under-cabinet lighting and correct ventilation are handled by licensed trades. We finish with cornice, painting, kick detailing and a clean site so the kitchen is ready to use on handover day.

What kitchen renovations cost in Gilston (2026)

A quality kitchen renovation generally runs $25,000-$45,000, with larger custom kitchens involving structural change, stone islands and integrated appliances landing $50,000-$90,000+. Prices move with access, the condition of what is already there, how much structural work is involved and the level of finish you choose. We confirm all of that at the inspection and price your Gilston job rather than quoting from a range.

How long kitchen renovations take

Most kitchen renovations take 3-5 weeks on site once cabinetry is manufactured, with 4-6 weeks lead time on custom joinery and stone.
