Three reasons homeowners trust us with their kitchen
No budget surprises
Every quote is a detailed fixed price agreed before work begins. Kitchen and bathroom disputes are among the most common referred to New Zealand's Disputes Tribunal, and vague estimates are usually the cause. We remove that risk with a line-by-line scope you approve up front, so the number we quote is the number you pay.
On-time, project-managed
One project manager coordinates cabinetry, benchtop templating, plumbing and electrical so trades never clash on site. Our average full renovation runs three to five weeks from removal to final install, and we book your installation date in writing so you can plan around it with confidence.
Guaranteed workmanship
Our installation carries a written workmanship guarantee, and we only fit cabinetry hardware and benchtop materials that come with their own 10-year to lifetime manufacturer warranties. A well-built kitchen is one of the highest-return home improvements you can make, so we build yours to last decades, not years.

Signs It's Time
What kitchen problems do we fix?
Most Wellington homeowners do not renovate because the kitchen looks dated. They renovate because it stops working for how they live. These are the issues we are called in to solve.
Not enough storage or bench space
The single most common complaint we hear. A well-designed layout can add 20 to 30 percent more usable storage within the same footprint by using full-height cabinets, drawers instead of doors, and a scullery. We plan storage around what you actually own.
Poor workflow and traffic jams
If two people cannot cook without colliding, the work triangle is wrong. We redesign the sink, hob and fridge relationship so prep, cook and clean-up flow, which is the design principle behind almost every kitchen that "just feels right".
Water-damaged or swollen cabinetry
Wellington's humidity is hard on low-grade particle board. Swollen kick-boards and soft cabinet bases are a sign of moisture ingress. We rebuild in moisture-resistant grade board so the problem does not return in a few years.
Worn benchtops and dated finishes
Laminate that is chipping, timber that is lifting, or tiles with stained grout drag down the whole room. A new engineered stone or laminate benchtop is often the single highest-impact change you can make to a kitchen.
A closed-in, dark layout
Many Wellington villas and 1990s homes have kitchens walled off from living areas. Opening the space to the dining and lounge is the most requested structural change we make, and it transforms how a home feels and functions.
A kitchen that hurts resale
Buyers judge a home by its kitchen and bathrooms first. A tired kitchen can stall a sale or knock tens of thousands off offers, which is why a renovation before listing is one of the most reliable value-add projects.
Scope of Work
What kitchen services do we offer?
We are a full-service Wellington kitchen renovation team. Whether you need the lot or just one element upgraded, here is what we handle in-house and coordinate for you.
Design and 3D visualisation
We measure on site and produce a 3D design so you can walk through your kitchen before we build it. Making changes on screen costs nothing, while changing your mind mid-build is where budgets blow out, so we finalise every detail here first.
Custom cabinetry manufacture
Your cabinets are made to measure, not bought off a shelf, so we use every millimetre of your space. Moisture-resistant carcasses and quality soft-close hardware are standard, not an upsell.
Benchtop supply and install
Engineered stone, sintered stone, laminate and solid timber, all templated digitally and installed with tight, seamless joins. Engineered stone resists scratches and stains far better than natural marble, which is why it dominates modern Wellington kitchens.
Plumbing and electrical coordination
We schedule licensed plumbers and registered electricians so sinks, dishwashers, lighting and appliance circuits are all signed off to the New Zealand Building Code. You deal with one team, not five separate trades.
Appliance and tapware fit-out
We help you select and integrate ovens, cooktops, rangehoods and tapware, then install and connect them. Getting appliance sizing right at design stage avoids the costly rework of cabinets that do not fit.
Makeovers and refacing
Not every kitchen needs a full rebuild. Replacing doors, handles and the benchtop while keeping sound carcasses can refresh a kitchen for a fraction of the cost and in a fraction of the time.

"They redesigned our cramped villa kitchen in Mount Victoria and opened it to the dining room. Fixed price, finished on schedule, and we stayed living at home the whole time."Rachel M.Mount Victoria, Wellington Central
"The 3D design sold us. We could see exactly what we were getting before a single cabinet went in. The scullery they added is the best part of our house now."David & Sue T.Stokes Valley, Lower Hutt
"Refaced our doors and put in a new stone benchtop for a fraction of what a full rebuild would have cost. You would never know it was the same kitchen."Priya K.Trentham, Upper Hutt

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How much does a kitchen renovation cost in Wellington?
Most Wellington kitchen renovations fall between 25,000 and 60,000 NZD depending on size, cabinetry, benchtop material and appliances. Refacing and partial makeovers start lower, from around 12,000 NZD. We give you a detailed fixed-price quote before any work begins, so there are no budget surprises.
How long will I be without a kitchen?
A typical full renovation takes three to five weeks from removal to final benchtop install. We plan the schedule with you up front and keep disruption to a minimum. For many projects you can stay living in your home throughout.
Do you handle plumbing and electrical work?
Yes. We coordinate licensed plumbers and registered electricians as part of the project, so you deal with one team from design to completion and every stage meets New Zealand Building Code requirements.
Can you renovate within my existing kitchen footprint?
Absolutely. Keeping your existing layout reduces plumbing and electrical costs significantly. If you want to open the space up or move the sink or hob, we will price both options so you can choose.
Do you offer a workmanship warranty?
Yes. We provide a written workmanship guarantee on our installation, and cabinetry hardware and benchtop materials carry their own manufacturer warranties, typically 10 years to lifetime.

We serve the Lower Hutt, Porirua, Wellington Central, Upper Hutt and Kāpiti Coast. We are a local team and we come to you for the in-home measure and design consultation.
