How long does a kitchen renovation take?

A kitchen renovation typically takes three months from demolition to completion. The schedule may vary depending on your builder and cabinet maker. Lead times on materials are also crucial, so we prioritize availability for a smooth process.

How does an interior designer add value to a kitchen renovation?

As your kitchen designer, I work with you to identify current issues in your space and deliver bespoke solutions. I focus on cabinetry styles, layout optimization for cooking and entertaining, and integrating storage advancements for your needs. I also ensure the design works for future needs, like children or accessibility.

What should we expect to pay in design fees?

Design fees in the industry for mid to high range kitchen renovations can range from $8,000 to $30,000. At Assembly Interiors, we offer tailored packages to suit your needs and budget, with no fixed pricing.

What is the average cost of kitchen renovation?

In my experience, an average kitchen costs from $70,000 but there are many factors that influence this such as size and complexity, butler’s pantries, cabinetry choices, stone preferences, appliances, and associated building works. I work closely with you to understand your budget and ensure we are designing to suit your goals.

How do we find the right builder or cabinet maker?

Having the right team around you is critical to the success of any home renovation project. We can help introduce you to skilled builders and cabinet makers, and will work collaboratively with your selected contractors to streamline the overall design and build process.

Can I reuse existing elements in my kitchen?

The reuse of items is particularly important to how I work, however kitchens can prove tricky in this area. Typically, it is more cost-effective and efficient to completely remove the existing kitchen and provide you with a new, fully customized solution that will last you for many years ahead. However, we will always consider this based on your specific project.

Dreaming of a new bathroom or laundry?

Bathroom Interior Designer

Bathrooms and laundries do the heavy lifting in our homes, and they require meticulous planning and an in-depth knowledge of construction, cabinetry and design styles to create a bespoke, beautiful and highly functional space.

A beautifully renovated bathroom or laundry is not only a joy to use, but adds instant value to your home.

Clients work with me as I take the reins: clear process and communication, builder-ready documentation, decisive recommendations, and no “endless Pinterest spiral.” I’m obsessed with the details - cabinetry lines, harmonious finishes, lighting layers, so you can get on with life (and still love your home). Focusing your thoughts, defining your style and removing the overwhelm.

We work with homeowners across Melbourne to take the stress out of bathroom and laundry renovations with our tailored design service.
