What Affects Your Cost
Size & dimensions
More linear feet of carpentry means more material and labour. A 5-room kitchen costs more than a 3-room.
Materials & finish
Laminate is the most affordable; veneer, lacquer, and solid surfaces sit at the premium end.
Hardware quality
Soft-close hinges, European runners, and lift-up systems add cost but last far longer.
Property type
HDB, condo, and landed each have different layouts, access, and finishing expectations.
Design complexity
Curved profiles, integrated lighting, and bespoke joinery take more time to fabricate.
Site conditions
Uneven walls, hacking, and tight access can affect installation time and cost.
How to Plan Your Renovation Budget
- Set aside 10–15% contingency for unexpected site works or upgrades.
- Prioritise the carpentry you use daily — kitchen and wardrobes — over decorative pieces.
- Mixing finishes (laminate for storage, veneer for feature areas) keeps cost down without losing the premium look.
- Get an itemised quote so you can see exactly what each piece costs and adjust scope.
