Questions to ask
How long does a kitchen renovation take?
Most full renovations take 3 to 6 weeks on site, plus design and ordering time beforehand. Your pro will give you a timeline with their quote.
Can I keep my kitchen running during the work?
Usually not for the whole job. Many homeowners set up a temporary kitchen in the laundry or living room for the weeks the work takes.
Do I need council approval?
Most like-for-like kitchen renovations don't. Structural changes or work in a strata building may need approval, and your pro can tell you.
