Kitchen Renovations in Melbourne
A kitchen renovation is one of the most significant decisions you will make in your home.
Get it right and the result shapes your daily life for a decade or more — the way your kitchen functions in the morning rush, the way it holds up under daily use, the way it looks at the end of a long day. Get it wrong and you are living with those mistakes just as long.
LN Kitchens designs and delivers full kitchen renovations across Melbourne from our showroom and workshop at Sunshine North. We combine made-to-measure custom joinery with end-to-end project coordination, so that what you see in the design is what you get in your home — nothing approximated, nothing compromised.
What a Full Kitchen Renovation with
LN Kitchens Includes
A full kitchen renovation is not just new doors on old carcasses.
It is a complete rethink of how your kitchen works, how it fits your space, and how it reflects the home it belongs to. At LN Kitchens, a full renovation covers every element that defines a kitchen — from the structural joinery through to the finishing details.
Custom Cabinet Design and Manufacture
Every cabinet in your kitchen is made to measure at our Sunshine North workshop. We do not pull modules from a catalogue and hope they fit. We design around your actual room dimensions, your storage priorities, and your aesthetic — then we build it precisely to those specifications. Door profiles and finishes include 2Pac polyurethane, acrylic, laminate, and timber veneer, suited to modern, classic, and transitional Melbourne kitchen designs.
Stone Benchtops
Benchtops are among the most visible and most used surfaces in your kitchen. We supply and install stone benchtops as part of your renovation package, with options across engineered stone, natural stone, and porcelain. Material selection is guided by your design direction, your household's usage patterns, and your budget — and we source for quality, not just price.
Internal Fittings and Storage
Drawers, pull-outs, soft-close mechanisms, bin systems, appliance nooks, and pantry configurations are all designed into your layout from the beginning. The internal organisation of a kitchen is often what separates a kitchen that genuinely works from one that merely looks good. We fuss over this detail because living in the kitchen every day, you notice it more than anything else.
Butler's Pantry Integration
Many Melbourne homes benefit from a butler's pantry alongside the main kitchen — additional prep space, concealed storage for appliances, and a practical buffer between the kitchen and the living areas. Where a butler's pantry is part of your renovation scope, we design both spaces as one cohesive joinery solution rather than treating them as separate projects.
Splashbacks and Finishing
Details Your renovation is only complete when every surface works together. We coordinate splashback selection and installation as part of the overall kitchen design to ensure the finished result is considered from every angle.
Full Installation
Our installation team manages the complete fit-out. We coordinate with your builder, plumber, and electrician where required, and we deliver a finished kitchen that is level, clean, and ready to use.
Why Melbourne Homeowners and Builders Choose LN Kitchens
LN Kitchens was founded by a first-generation Vietnamese-Australian family with deep roots in the trade. That background shapes how we work — a commitment to getting it right, communicating clearly, and standing behind the result. We do not treat your kitchen as a job number. We treat it as a space that matters, because it does.
What homeowners and builders tell us matters most:
Craftsmanship that holds up.
Our joinery is built to a standard that qualified tradespeople notice. Doors hang true. Finishes are consistent. Carcasses are solid. This is not showroom quality that looks good once and then settles — it is practical, durable craftsmanship built for real households.
A team that communicates. Kitchen renovations involve coordination across multiple trades and a timeline that affects how you live in your home. We keep you informed at every stage — what is happening, when it is happening, and who to call if something comes up.
On time, to standard.
Delays in a kitchen renovation hold up everything else. We understand that, and we work to schedule. When issues arise (they do in every renovation), we flag them early so you can plan around them rather than react to them.
Dual capability — homeowners and builders.
We work with both Melbourne homeowners renovating their own homes and builders who need a reliable joinery partner across multiple projects. If you are an owner-builder or a volume builder, we understand how to fit our manufacturing and installation schedule into your construction programme.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a kitchen renovation cost in Melbourne?
Costs vary by scope and materials. As a general guide: cosmetic refreshes run from $10,000 to $25,000; full mid-range renovations with custom cabinetry and stone benchtops typically range from $28,000 to $55,000; larger or premium custom renovations start from $55,000 and above. Contact us for a detailed, itemised quote based on your specific space and brief.
What is the difference between a custom kitchen renovation and flat-pack?
Flat-pack kitchens use standard modular components assembled on site, with fixed sizes that may not suit your space. Custom joinery is designed and made specifically for your kitchen — precise dimensions, your chosen finishes, and layouts that maximise every centimetre. Custom costs more upfront and delivers a significantly better outcome in fit, function, and longevity.
How long does a full kitchen renovation take?
Most full kitchen renovation projects move through design, manufacture, and installation within 8 to 14 weeks from sign-off, depending on scope and materials. We confirm your specific timeline at the quote stage.
Do you work with builders and owner-builders?
Yes. We regularly partner with volume builders and owner-builders across Melbourne. We understand building programmes and coordinate our manufacturing and installation schedule to fit your project timeline.
