What does it cost to renovate a Brisbane kitchen?
Kitchen renovation costs in Brisbane and all over Australia have gone up due to increased building activity during the COVID-19 pandemic. This has led to higher prices for raw materials. Therefore, it’s reasonable to expect a noticeable increase in cost when it comes to the kind of kitchen renovation Brisbane residents want.
What factors influence the cost of a kitchen renovation in Australia?
The price can vary based on several aspects, including your kitchen’s size, the materials and finishes you choose, the cabinetry, and the appliances you prefer.
Costs can also differ by location. As of December 2023, the average kitchen renovation cost across the country ranges from $22,000 to $40,000. A general estimate would be between $20,000 and $40,000+, depending on the materials, appliances, and the size of your kitchen and house.
In Brisbane, for example, the costs are as follows:
Small kitchen renovations may cost between $20,000 and $30,000.
Mid-range kitchens could range from $30,000 to $45,000.
High-end kitchen renovations might exceed $45,000.

Looking for the perfect kitchen design for your Brisbane home?
The kitchen is more than just a place for cooking; it’s a space where friends and family gather to enjoy each other’s company. That’s why many kitchen designers believe a modern kitchen should be crafted not only for practicality but also to encourage socialising.
Renovating your Brisbane kitchen offers several advantages:
1. It allows you to use your floor space more effectively and increase counter space.
2. You’ll find smarter ways to organise your appliances and ingredients.
3. You can upgrade to a more cost-effective, energy-saving, and eco-friendly kitchen.
4. A renovation can make your kitchen more comfortable and homely, especially as your lifestyle changes or to keep up with the times.

Thinking About a Kitchen Makeover?
Refreshing your kitchen with a renovation is an exciting endeavour, but as you’re likely aware, it comes with a considerable expense. It’s an investment worth considering carefully.
Here are some indications that it might be time for a kitchen upgrade:
Your Kitchen Shows Signs of Wear and Tear
Being one of the most utilised spaces, your kitchen is prone to showing signs of wear, including damaged cabinets, benchtops, walls, and floors. If these issues are becoming more noticeable, or if your kitchen feels outdated, a renovation could breathe new life into this essential space.
Your Family’s Needs Have Changed
If the kitchen in your current home isn’t accommodating the evolving needs of your growing family, you might think about moving. However, another option is to renovate your kitchen to make it more functional and suited to your lifestyle. Our Gold Coast kitchen design experts can provide valuable insights on how to achieve this.
Your Kitchen Feels Overcrowded and Disorganized
A cluttered kitchen that’s hard to keep tidy might suffer from inadequate storage solutions. Nowadays, there are numerous ways to enhance kitchen storage, from adding modern storage systems to your existing cabinets to redesigning your kitchen layout for additional space.
In any of these situations, considering a kitchen renovation could be a strategic move to not only improve the aesthetics and functionality of your kitchen but also to adapt your home to better suit your family’s changing needs.

“We have even recommended Craftbuilt to several of our friends and some of them have also had a second and third kitchen themselves. We simply can’t recommend Craftbuilt highly enough. We also believe that our beautiful cabinetry became great assets when it came to selling each of our homes,”

“I had my beautiful new Craftbuilt kitchen installed over 2 years ago and still love it to bits. My designer Sharon worked with me tirelessly to turn an awkward pokey space with angles and curves that couldn't be changed to create a new open area where all the family could cook, socialise and clean up without getting in each others way. I choose Craftbuilt because they listened to me without pushing me and the whole experience was a relief as I had been planning what to do for a very long time. I now have all the storage I needed in my kitchen that works for all occasions.”
