Kitchen Renovations on the Gold Coast

Custom kitchen renovations from a like-for-like refresh through to full structural reconfiguration with an island, walk-in pantry and integrated appliances. Orange Projects is a QBCC-licensed builder (Licence No. 15620733) delivering kitchen renovations across Gold Coast and the wider South East Queensland region.

Kitchen Renovations on the Gold Coast - what to expect

The Gold Coast runs from Coolangatta to Coomera and covers just about every type of housing in Queensland - beachfront apartments, canal-front homes, hinterland acreage and vast family estates through the central corridor. We work on 1970s and 1980s brick low-sets through the central suburbs, original beach cottages along the southern strip, canal homes around the Broadwater and Mermaid Waters, apartments in the high-rise corridor, and near-new project homes in the northern growth areas. For kitchen renovations specifically, this matters. Salt air, humidity and intense summer storms are the constants here. That drives corrosion-resistant fixings on anything external, genuine waterproofing in wet areas, and materials chosen for UV and moisture stability rather than showroom appeal. Apartment work also carries body corporate approvals, lift bookings and noise windows that need to be organised before demolition day. Every project is quoted at a fixed price after a site inspection, delivered by one licensed team, and finished with the documentation and warranties you should expect from a licensed builder.

Our kitchen renovations service on the Gold Coast

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 on the Gold Coast (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+. Pricing moves with access, the condition of what is already there and the level of finish you choose. Salt air, humidity and intense summer storms are the constants here. That drives corrosion-resistant fixings on anything external, genuine waterproofing in wet areas, and materials chosen for UV and moisture stability rather than showroom appeal. Apartment work also carries body corporate approvals, lift bookings and noise windows that need to be organised before demolition day.

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