How Much Does a Kitchen Renovation Cost?

Kitchen renovation costs vary widely according to kitchen size, cabinetry, benchtops, appliances, finishes and whether plumbing, electrical services or walls need to be moved.

Budget

Budget Kitchen

$15,000 – $25,000

Best suited to smaller kitchens, simpler cabinetry, cost-conscious materials and projects where the existing layout and services can largely remain in place.

Premium

Premium Kitchen

$40,000 – $65,000+

Larger kitchens with bespoke cabinetry, premium surfaces, high-end appliances, detailed joinery and potentially substantial layout changes.

Planning Your Budget

What Affects Kitchen Renovation Costs?

01

Cabinetry

Cabinet quantity, internal storage, door finishes and custom joinery can represent a substantial part of the kitchen budget.

02

Benchtops

Laminate can keep costs lower, while premium stone and other specialty surfaces can significantly increase the budget.

03

Appliances

Ovens, cooktops, rangehoods, refrigerators and dishwashers vary substantially between entry-level and premium ranges.

04

Layout Changes

Moving sinks, appliances, electrical circuits or walls can increase plumbing, electrical, building and finishing costs.

About This Calculator

How the Kitchen Renovation Estimate Works

The HomeAdvice calculator starts with an indicative Australian kitchen renovation range according to renovation level, then adjusts that range for kitchen size, layout changes and selected upgrades.

The base estimate is intended to represent the core kitchen renovation rather than every possible upgrade. Features such as premium benchtops, custom cabinetry, a kitchen island, new flooring and appliance packages are added separately where selected.

Renovation Level Indicative Base Range
Budget Kitchen $15,000 – $25,000
Standard Kitchen $25,000 – $40,000
Premium Kitchen $40,000 – $65,000
Please note: These figures are intended for preliminary planning rather than as a kitchen renovation quotation. Actual prices vary according to location, cabinetry, materials, appliances, project complexity, existing conditions, plumbing and electrical requirements, labour rates and supplier pricing.
