Kitchen renovations in Fitzroy. Straight answers.
How much does a kitchen renovation in Fitzroy cost?
A standard kitchen renovation in Fitzroy runs $25,000 to $55,000. Standard scope (flat-pack cabinetry, laminate benchtop, ceramic tile) sits at $25,000 to $35,000. Mid-spec (semi-custom cabinetry, 20mm stone benchtop, porcelain tile) runs $35,000 to $45,000. Full-spec with custom joinery or structural changes runs $45,000 to $60,000+. Many Fitzroy terrace kitchens involve heritage overlays or tight rear-of-block sites, which we factor into the quote before we price it.
How long does a kitchen renovation in Fitzroy take?
A standard kitchen renovation runs 4 to 6 weeks from demolition to final clean. If the property is in a heritage overlay and requires a Yarra Council permit, allow extra lead time before work starts. We give you a specific start date and handover date in writing before anything begins.
Do I need a permit for a kitchen renovation in Fitzroy?
Most standard kitchen renovations do not require a permit. If your property is in a heritage overlay or you are making structural changes, a Yarra Council planning permit may be required. We identify this during the site visit and advise you before you sign anything.
Are you licensed and insured for kitchen renovations in Fitzroy?
Yes. gutted. is a BPC registered building practitioner (Building and Plumbing Commission) and fully insured for domestic building work in Victoria. We provide our registration number before you sign.
Do you work on Fitzroy's terrace houses and Victorian-era kitchens?
Yes, it is a significant portion of our inner-north work. Fitzroy has some of Melbourne's oldest housing stock: narrow Victorian and Edwardian terraces, converted warehouses, and tight rear extensions. We know what to expect before we quote, including shared walls, original timber floors, and heritage constraints.
