Kitchen Renovations Auckland – Frequently Asked Questions

Who manages the plumber, electrician, cabinetmaker and other trades during a kitchen renovation?

Aries Builders can manage the complete kitchen renovation for you. We coordinate the builders, plumber, electrician, cabinetmaker and other required sub-trades, helping keep the work organised and giving you one main point of contact throughout the project.

How much does a kitchen renovation cost in Auckland?

The cost of a kitchen renovation can vary considerably depending on the size of the kitchen, cabinetry, benchtops, appliances, plumbing and electrical changes, flooring, finishes and any building work required. Aries Builders can assess your existing kitchen, discuss what you would like to achieve and provide a detailed quote based on the agreed scope of work.

How long does a kitchen renovation usually take?

Every kitchen is different. The timeframe depends on the amount of building work required, cabinetry manufacture, benchtop lead times, plumbing and electrical work and whether any unexpected damage is discovered. Before work begins, we can discuss the expected programme and coordinate the different trades to help keep disruption to a minimum.

Do I need building consent to renovate my kitchen in Auckland?

Many straightforward kitchen renovations do not require building consent, particularly where you are upgrading an existing kitchen without significant structural changes. Some plumbing alterations may also be exempt when completed by an authorised plumber. However, structural alterations, additional sanitary fixtures or other significant changes may require consent. Aries Builders can review the proposed work and help determine whether further design, engineering or council approval is required.

Can Aries Builders help design the new kitchen?

Yes. We can work with you and our cabinetry and trade network to develop a practical kitchen layout that suits your home, available space, storage requirements, style and budget. We can also help coordinate cabinetry, benchtops, splashbacks, flooring, lighting and other finishes as part of the overall renovation.

Can I keep some of my existing kitchen and replace only what is needed?

Yes. Not every kitchen needs to be completely removed. Depending on the condition and layout, it may be possible to retain parts of the existing kitchen and replace or upgrade selected cabinetry, benchtops, appliances or finishes. We can inspect the kitchen and discuss which approach is likely to provide the best result.

What kitchen benchtop options can you arrange?

We can help source and install a wide range of kitchen benchtops, including laminate, engineered stone and natural stone options such as granite or marble. The right choice will depend on your preferred appearance, durability requirements and budget.

Can you install my new kitchen appliances?

Yes. Appliance installation can be incorporated into the renovation. Where licensed electrical, plumbing or gas work is required, we coordinate the appropriate qualified trades so that appliances are installed correctly as part of the overall project.

Can you repair a kitchen damaged by a leaking pipe, dishwasher or flooding?

Yes. Aries Builders has extensive experience investigating and repairing water-damaged buildings. If a kitchen has been affected by a leaking dishwasher, pipe failure, flooding or another source of water ingress, we can assess the damage, identify affected building materials and arrange the necessary repairs and reinstatement.

What happens if you find rot or hidden water damage after the old kitchen is removed?

Sometimes damage cannot be seen until cabinetry, flooring or wall linings are removed. If we discover rot, moisture damage or another unforeseen problem, we document the issue and discuss it with you before carrying out additional work. Where required, we can provide a variation, estimate or quotation for the additional repairs.

Can you renovate the kitchen as part of a larger home renovation?

Yes. Kitchen work can be completed as a standalone project or incorporated into a larger renovation involving bathrooms, flooring, walls, ceilings, structural alterations, painting and other areas of the home. Having the work managed together can make coordinating the different stages and trades considerably easier.

Do you carry out kitchen renovations throughout Auckland?

Yes. Aries Builders provides kitchen renovation, building, repair and maintenance services throughout the Auckland region. We can visit your property, discuss what you would like to achieve and develop a scope of work for your project.
