Kitchens & Laundries

The Homeowner's Renovation Guide — Kitchens & Laundries.

A free, plain-English read on how a kitchen or laundry renovation actually works in Australia. How the industry is put together, where the money goes, and the three ways you can choose to run yours. Same honest voice as our bathroom guide, tuned for the rooms with cabinetry, stone and appliances at their core.

Exactly how a $45–75k kitchen (or a $25–35k laundry) breaks down — cabinetry, stone, appliances, trades, margin.
Why going direct to a cabinetmaker and stonemason (instead of a kitchen company) is where most of the saving comes from.
Where homeowners typically save 20–25% (and 30%+ if you do the simple labour like demo and painting).
What to look for in any quote, contract and payment schedule — including cabinetry and appliance spec.
