No sorry we can’t help you for a couple of reasons.

One is we only manufacture and supply complete full new personally designed kitchens and bench tops and are not set up do makeovers like this.

The second reason is, it’s a false economy because the carcasses will wear out and are actually the cheapest part of your Kitchen. So you are spending good money to replace doors and tops to save just a little bit of money and once the new bits go in the carcass will look old and second hand, plus the new on old never fits real well either.

Our advice, save a little more money and get then lot done, you will be so glad you did. Otherwise there are small little cabinet makers or handymen that may do it for you.

Unfortunately there are many Kitchen Companies out there now using restrictive fixed sized cabinets and flat pack systems just to improve their company profits INSTEAD of providing the customer with a kitchen that looks good, suits their needs, fits well in the room (and doesn’t look like a handyman job), maximises storage and more importantly is good quality with a good finish and warranties which the customer deserves and paid for.

Easy Living Kitchens will never put the customer’s needs at risk like this and will never take shortcuts like the others and therefore Easy Living Kitchens are one of the few totally custom made kitchen suppliers left in the market place today.

So what’s the difference you ask???

Other Companies

With Restrictive fixed sized cabinets and flat packs – You will be stuck with dead space, less storage, large fillers to walls, cabinets that don’t fit properly, large gaps around cabinets, strange cabinet layouts that don’t work for you but suit restrictive size cabinets, and in many cases they are not built as well and simply won’t last the test of time… ultimately you will be disappointed.

Most people get this wrong unfortunately. Never have you floorboards finish polished before a new kitchen renovation, it’s asking for trouble.

It’s ALWAYS recommended to only do the base sanding back of your floorboards before the installation of your new kitchen. Your floors should NEVER be fully finished until after installation… Why, well let’s think about it… For workplace health and safety, trades have to wear their boots so it’s inevitable there will be scuff marks, they are also moving kitchen cabinets and components around the room to fit your new kitchen, you will have plumbers and electricians and maybe stone masons and glass splashback people and all their tools as well...

So to avoid disappointment leave the floors until after the installation.

This will vary depending on what’s involved like stone bench tops, glass for splashbacks among other things, but as a general rule of thumb and to be safe it’s suggested that customers allow for 2-4 weeks from start to finish.

For many, renovating a kitchen is not something they have performed before. They really don’t know how much it will cost. They don’t know what’s involved.

There’s no shelf price to base your Kitchen on. It really does depend on a number of factors including size, individual tastes, quality and types of fittings, bench top and splashback requirements, appliances and many other factors.

How much a kitchen renovation costs is usually forgotten when the increase in the overall value of your property is factored in. Done properly a kitchen renovation is almost guaranteed to pay for itself and become a very sound investment toward your property’s value.

The only way for you to know how much your Kitchen renovation will cost, is to call Easy Living Kitchens and book in your Kitchen Design Consultation and Quote. From there, we can give you a 100% Fixed Price for your Kitchen Supply, No Hidden Extras Guaranteed, to create your stunning, new Kitchen.

Unfortunately, this practice is rife in the industry. Many companies or contractors will deliberately price low to win a job, then use cleverly worded clauses in their contracts to justify substantial costs for variations and extras.

With Easy Living Kitchens you can be GUARANTEED this will not happen to you. Here’s how our guarantee works for you and protects you from hidden extras;

100% Unconditional, No Hidden Extras, Fixed Price Kitchen Supply Guarantee – Even if we find we have left something out in your kitchen design, you don’t pay any more.

Of course, if you make any changes to what is quoted or add any extras beyond what is included in your quote, what you pay may change.

No. Sorry to be blunt but there’s no getting away from this. The old saying of “you get what you pay for” extends far into the Kitchen industry. I’m sorry to say, there are cowboys out there that have given us all at times a bad name.

Kitchens renovation companies have a habit of “here today, gone tomorrow” syndrome. Many builders take it on, discover the complexities and frustrations, then pack up and disappear. Often leaving many unhappy customers behind.
