What we do

A kitchen renovation that holds its price and holds up for years.

We handle every trade under one roof. No chasing a plumber one day and an electrician the next. From layout redesign to the final coat of paint, it's all gutted.

Layout redesign

We work with your existing footprint or open it up. No structural guesswork. We quote what it actually takes.

Cabinetry & joinery

Custom or semi-custom cabinets, built and fitted by our own crew. Not flat-pack dressed up as a renovation.

Benchtops & splashback

Stone, laminate, or tile. We supply and install, matched to the brief and the budget.

Plumbing rough-in

Sink, dishwasher, and gas relocations handled in-house. No separate plumber to chase or co-ordinate.

Electrical & lighting

Downlights, rangehood wiring, power points. Co-ordinated with the build, not bolted on after the cabinets are in.

Written fixed-price quote

The number we agree on before we start is the number you pay. No surprises, no additions.

Why gutted. in Footscray

We know Footscray kitchens. Older bones, tighter layouts, and homes worth doing properly.

A price that holds

Quoted in writing before we start. The number we agree on is the number you pay.

We know Footscray homes

Narrow blocks, tight side access, heritage precincts on some streets, walls built before modern insulation existed. We check all of it on the site visit, so it's in the quote, not a surprise after we've started.

Straight talk, answered calls

We say the thing, then stop. No jargon, no runaround. We pick up the phone.

What clients say

I relocated interstate with two dogs and never thought a new home could feel like me, but they took me under their wing, kept me updated the whole way, and let me customise everything from the flooring to the kitchen layout. Genuine, passionate, and a pleasure to deal with.

Common questions

Kitchen Renovations in Footscray. Straight answers.

Does Footscray's heritage overlay affect a kitchen renovation?

Parts of Footscray and West Footscray sit inside heritage precincts covering 900-plus homes. Most of that controls street-facing changes: roofline, front facade, external walls. A standard internal kitchen reno usually isn't touched by it. If yours involves extending out the back or adding a window, we check your specific address against the overlay before we quote, not after.

My block has tight side access, does that limit what's possible?

Most Footscray blocks are compact with narrow side access. That's normal here, not a problem. It changes how we sequence the job, what comes in by hand versus what needs machinery, and it's priced into the quote from the site visit. Not added as a surprise once we've started.

Do you work on Footscray's older homes, period cottages and worker's terraces?

That is most of our work in the area. Most Footscray kitchens we open up were built before modern insulation and moisture standards existed. We know what's likely behind that wall before we start, and we price for it honestly rather than a low number that grows once it's open.

Do I need a council permit for my Footscray kitchen renovation?

Most internal kitchen renovations don't need a Maribyrnong City Council permit. If yours involves a structural change, an extension, or anything visible from the street, we tell you exactly what's required before we start, and handle the paperwork.

How much does a kitchen renovation in Footscray cost?

A standard kitchen renovation in Footscray runs $25,000 to $55,000 depending on size, materials, and how much structural work is involved. We give you a written fixed-price quote after a site visit. Not a range, not 'it depends.' Just the number.

How long will my kitchen renovation take?

A typical kitchen renovation runs 4 to 6 weeks from first swing to final clean. We give you a specific timeline before work starts, and we keep to it.
