The Problem

Some kitchens are not broken. They are just painful to use.

A kitchen refresh can solve a lot without pretending every wall, floor or trade needs to be rebuilt from scratch.

  • Tired or dated cabinetry
  • Poor storage and hard-to-use cupboards
  • Awkward layout or bench flow
  • Dark or heavy-looking cabinets
  • Wasted corners, gaps and dead space
  • Doors and drawers that do not suit how the kitchen is used
  • A room that could work better without necessarily moving every wall or trade

FAQ

Kitchen refresh questions.

Do I need exact measurements before getting in touch?

No. Rough wall lengths, a few photos and your town/suburb are enough to start. Exact measurements come later during measure-up.

Can I get a ballpark from photos?

Usually, yes. Photos are not a final quote, but they are enough to see whether the job looks like a fit.

Do you do full kitchen renovations?

Cabinet Ninja focuses on the cabinetry side of the kitchen. Other trades can be discussed, but they are not automatically included unless clearly listed in the scope.

Can you keep the same layout?

Yes. Many kitchen refreshes work best by improving cabinetry, storage and finish while keeping the main layout similar.

Can you replace doors and panels only?

Sometimes. It depends on the condition and construction of the existing cabinetry. Send photos and Cabinet Ninja can let you know whether that makes sense.

Are plumbing and electrical included?

Not automatically. If plumbing or electrical work is needed, it will be discussed and clearly listed in the quote scope.

Do you install the cabinetry?

Yes. Cabinet Ninja designs, builds and installs the cabinetry.

What areas do you service?

Rotorua, Taupō, Tokoroa, Atiamuri, Reporoa, South Waikato and surrounding areas.

Want to know what your kitchen could become?
