What we do
Eight ways to work on a kitchen
Every one of these is a kitchen. We do not take bathrooms, basements or additions, which is the only reason four people can hold this standard.

All figures are sample bands for orientation. A price becomes binding only after a measured survey and approved drawings.
Scope lock
What we will not do
This list is longer than the one above and it is deliberate. A studio that takes every job becomes a general contractor, and a general contractor cannot know a kitchen the way we intend to.
If you are remodelling a whole house we will happily recommend somebody, and we will still draw your kitchen for them.
- Bathrooms, ensuites and powder rooms
- Basements, attics and garage conversions
- Additions, dormers and structural extensions
- Whole-home remodels and flips
- Exterior work, roofing, siding and decks
- Acting as general contractor for other trades
Common questions
Before you pick a service
More at the full question page, including permits, payment stages and what happens when a wall opens up on a surprise.
All questionsOnly kitchens. We do not take bathrooms, basements, additions or whole-house remodels, and we do not subcontract them out either. One room type is how four people can keep the standard where it is.
A full remodel is typically 9 to 13 weeks on site once drawings are approved, and a small galley 6 to 8. Design and specification before that is usually 4 to 6 weeks, and cabinetry lead time runs alongside it.
Survey appointments are generally within two weeks. Build start dates are typically 10 to 14 weeks out (sample figure, updated as the calendar moves).
Almost every client does. We set dust barriers, run negative air during demolition, and help you set up a temporary sink and refrigerator elsewhere before the old kitchen comes out.
Where we stand
Start with the survey. Everything else follows from an accurate drawing.
Two to three hours in your kitchen produces the measured plan, the services layout and two scale options. It costs $1,450 as a sample price, and it comes off the build if you go ahead with us.
