If you are taking out an old kitchen, it’s best to replace the wall linings at the same time. This
can be done at a minimal cost and will ensure you have an even surface to work with. And
whether it’s a renovation or a new home, it is best to plan for all services, whether you install
them now or later.
The things you need to consider are:
The services you need to plan for:
• Extra power points for appliances
• High level power points for new rangehoods
• Wiring for additional lighting
• Where will the sinks be and do I need more plumbing services?
• What rangehood extraction ducting do I need to provide?
Do you want to make alterations?
• Install, move or replace any doors, windows or walls to improve the flow of the kitchen or
interaction with the rest of the living area
• Install any insulation or interior pre-lining products
How do you want to finish your new kitchen?
