Interior Fittings and Storage
We have a wide range of fittings and storage ideas on display. Important items to consider when planning your kitchen should be
- Pantry – type and style of your pantry, internal drawers or a full butlers pantry
- Corner solutions – solve the issue of those pesky corner cupboards
- Soft motion drawers
- Soft closing doors
- Integrated bins
- Pull out storage units
- Cutlery trays and spice racks
- Integrated appliances
Choosing the correct solutions for your kitchen will help make use of available room and streamline work processes. Correct storage will ensure that there is a place for everything, and your kitchen is well organised.
Sink And Tapware
It is important to choose the correct sink and tap for your plumbing requirements. From drop in (inset) to undermount and butlers sinks it is vital to consider the durability, functionality and most important the quality of the sink.
- Stainless steel
- Resin
- Granite or engineered stone
- Coloured steel
- Fine fired clay
- Butlers sinks
There are many types of kitchen mixers available, and you should consider the style and colour which compliments the finishes in your kitchen. Pullout mixers are particularly helpful when washing vegetables and pots or even rinsing down the sink, and the height is worth considering if you would like to fill large pots or even buckets in your sink. At KBHI we are very firm with the sinks and taps we allow as we warrant everything we install. We make sure that only high-quality tapware with sound, long lasting warranties are selected to be installed.
Lighting
Lighting is an important consideration in the kitchen
- LED Strip Lighting
- LED Down Lights
- Pendant/ Feature Lighting
This is often an overlooked part of the renovation process and can create a fabulous talking piece or simply a lovely mood. Pendant lighting is perfect over island benches whereas LED strip lighting can be installed under overheads to illuminate worktops, in cupboards and under benchtops to create depth in your design. Downlights a great replacement for dull, older style lighting and we will help you with the perfect placement so as not to create shadows on your cooking and preparations areas. Lighting options are extensive and there are many options not listed here, it’s always best to have our interior designer assess the lighting plan in your in-home consultation to recommend an illumination solution.
Splash Backs
Splash backs have a very functional purpose but that doesn’t mean they can’t be fun
- Tiles
- Glass
- Stone
- Porcelain
This area is a great way to introduce colours or pattern if you’re feeling brave and are a great opportunity to elevate your design. Tiles can create texture and warmth when paired with minimalist joinery, whereas glass is preferred for its ease of cleaning.
Stone and porcelain on the other hand is the best of both worlds with the bonus of being the epitome of luxury. We have an extensive range of choices in our selection studio as well as access to multiple local suppliers to get the best for your kitchen.
Appliances
Handles
Not every door/drawer has to have a handle, there are many options available for you to get inside your new kitchen cabinets
- Pulls
- Knobs
- Handles
- Shark nose profile
- Push to open
Handles can either add detail or make a kitchen too fussy if there’s too much going on. Depending on the rest of your selections, we will guide you to make the best choice for the overall aesthetic of your design. Another consideration for handles is functionality. Some clients must make considerations regarding mobility and accessibility. Our extensive experience will make sure your doors and drawers are effective, easy to open and will last the test of time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the average cost of a kitchen renovation?
The cost of a kitchen renovation can vary significantly based on a few key factors. These include the size and layout of the kitchen, the quality of materials chosen (such as cabinetry, worktops, and appliances), and the complexity of the design. Additionally, customisation options like adding a kitchen island, high-end finishes, or specialist lighting can further impact the cost. On average, kitchen renovations typically range from $25,000 to $50,000 and can exceed $50,000 for luxury or highly customised projects. For a more tailored estimate based on your specific needs, it’s always best to schedule a consultation with our designer, who can provide guidance on how to maximise your budget without compromising on quality.
How long does a kitchen renovation typically take?
The timeline for a kitchen renovation varies depending on the scope of the project. A basic renovation, involving cosmetic updates like painting or replacing cupboard doors, may take less time than a full-scale overhaul. However, for a comprehensive kitchen renovation – one that involves demolition, plumbing and electrical work, custom cabinetry, and installation of new appliances – the process generally takes between 4 to 6 weeks from start to finish. This includes time for removing the old kitchen, preparing the space (such as laying flooring or rerouting plumbing), and completing installation and final touches. To ensure smooth planning, it’s advisable to begin the design process at least 3 months before your desired installation date, giving time for material selection, design revisions, and any unexpected delays.
Can I still use my kitchen during the renovation?
In most cases, especially for a full kitchen renovation, your existing kitchen will be entirely stripped out, making it difficult to use during the process. While we strive to minimise the disruption, we understand how challenging it can be to live without a functioning kitchen. To help make the experience more manageable, we can discuss setting up a temporary kitchen in another area of your home. This temporary space would allow for basic activities like cooking and cleaning. Alternatively, some clients take this opportunity to plan a holiday or visit family, as it can offer a welcome break from the renovation chaos. Ultimately, our goal is to work around your schedule to make the process as seamless as possible.
