What does a new kitchen cost in Melbourne?
Most Häcker projects land in the Luxury tier. Budget and Mid-Range are shown for comparison only.
Budget
Cosmetic updates, off-the-shelf cabinetry, basic benchtops, and standard appliances.
Mid-Range
Custom cabinetry, stone benchtops, quality fittings, and semi-integrated appliances.
Luxury
Bespoke joinery, premium finishes, integrated storage, and architectural detail that holds up for the long term.
Key Factors That Drive Your Kitchen Renovation Budget
If you want a kitchen that looks premium for the first 12 months, budget can work. If you want it to still feel premium in 10 years, that’s where Luxury specs matter.
Kitchen Size & Layout
Larger kitchens require more materials and labor, leading to higher costs. Smaller kitchens can be more affordable, but may require more frequent updates to keep up with changing trends.
Design Complexity
Curved cabinetry, handleless joinery, floating shelves, and bookmatched splashbacks all require additional craftsmanship.
Materials & Finishes
From basic laminate to natural stone and solid timber, your choice of finishes heavily impacts your overall spend.
Drawers vs. Doors
Choosing more drawers usually increases costs due to extra hardware, materials, and labour. Cabinets with doors are often cheaper but can be less accessible.
Plumbing & Electrical Changes
Moving sinks, ovens, or lighting, or removing walls to open up a space, can quickly increase costs due to service upgrades.
Appliances & Fixtures
Premium appliances from brands like Gaggenau and Miele, and features like downdraft rangehoods or built-in coffee machines, add to the total investment.

FAQ
FAQ for Kitchen Renovation Costs & Budgeting
Häcker is a luxury, German-made kitchen solution. Our projects typically align with the Luxury tier ($70k–$100k+) for joinery-level scope.
Five key cost-drivers determine your final investment:
• Kitchen Size & Layout (larger footprints or service relocations)
• Design Complexity (curved joinery, handleless doors)
• Plumbing & Electrical Changes (moving sinks/ovens, opening walls)
• Appliances & Fixtures (premium brands, integrated systems)
• Materials & Finishes (laminate vs. natural stone)
Our free design consultation analyses all these factors on-site and delivers your real, fixed-price quote—no guesswork.
Layout changes, design complexity (handleless, curved details), finish level (stone, timber, veneer) and appliance integration drive the investment.
This guide is strictly a planning tool—not a quote—so you understand typical ranges and hidden-fee pitfalls.
