A kitchen that works for everyday life.

An awkward layout, limited bench space or nowhere to put appliances can make an old kitchen hard to live with. Renovating gives you a chance to improve how the room works, as well as how it looks.

We plan and manage kitchen renovations in Adelaide’s older and character homes, bringing cabinetry, benchtops, trades and finishes together. We check the existing structure and services before deciding what should stay and what needs to change.

Keep the kitchen in its current footprint, open it to an adjoining room or connect it with a laundry or pantry. The right option depends on your budget, available space and how you cook, store food and spend time at home.

  • Kitchen layout changes
  • Cabinetry & pantry storage
  • Benchtops & splashbacks
  • Plumbing & electrical
  • Lighting & ventilation
  • Flooring & final finishes
  • Laundry connections

Plan the layout before choosing the finishes.

For a small kitchen, start with how you move between the fridge, sink and cooking area. Allow useful bench space, check that doors and drawers can open comfortably, and put everyday storage within easy reach. See a finished example in our North Haven kitchen renovation.

Kitchen renovation costs are affected by cabinetry, materials, moving services and changing walls or floors. Keeping a workable layout may reduce the scope; opening the room up needs the structure and services checked before the plan is final.

For an initial discussion, send room photos, rough measurements and a list of what frustrates you now. Tell us your must-haves, budget and preferred timing so we can help you choose a sensible scope and explain what the build will involve.

Hear What Our Clients Have To Say About Their Newly Renovated Homes

  • Ben and his team at Adelaide Heritage Renovations just completed a wonderful restoration of the ceiling and walls in the master bedroom of our 100 year old Beulah Park cottage. Two weeks ago the cornice fell off our old ceiling and the ceiling threatened to follow it. Everybody working for Ben was skilled, professional and friendly and we are extremely happy with the outcome. We will definitely be using them again.

    Michael Murray

  • Couldn’t speak more highly about this company. Friendly, professional and top draw throughout. We had to have our al fresco dining ceiling completely replaced and colour matched with new spot lights and speakers to go back in. Also installed our new fans to complete the job. Highly recommend Ben, and the team and will definitely have them back to do other work we need doing. Nice to find blokes you can trust to do a quality finish!

    James Stockton

  • Ben and the team were brilliant in responding quickly to an urgent repair I needed for a bathroom. They also completed the hanging of new light fittings and painting of the living room and kitchen. Their attention to detail and quality of work was exceptional. Highly recommend.

    Alexander West

  • Ben and his team recently replaced our old ceiling and they have done an excellent job. Very impressed with their professionalism and efficiency. Workers were all friendly and polite. They arrived on time and completed the work one day earlier than anticipated. On completion the ceiling was beautifully restored and renewed. Definitely recommend this company.

    Bernie Gibbons

  • We recently engaged Adelaide Heritage Renovations for a shed conversion and couldn’t be happier with the result. The team on site was friendly, professional, and showed an exceptional level of attention to detail throughout the entire build. What really stood out was the quality of construction and the thought that went into elements of the project that I hadn’t even considered, not being from the building industry myself. Their experience and guidance made a real difference. The finished product is of a very high standard, and the overall conversion has exceeded expectations. I would highly recommend Adelaide Heritage Renovations to anyone considering a similar project.

    Andrew G

  • Great guys, did an exceptional job and we were extremely happy with all aspects of the build. Highly recommended Ben and his team.

    Lynne Hammond

  • I recently used the team at Adelaide Heritage Renovations for some work at home, a 100 + year old symmetrical villa. They were outstanding, not only with their knowledge on how to get the best result, but also how they treated the place whilst working these was amazing. Cleaned up after and were incredibly courteous. I would recommend these guys for all your home renovation work.

    Luke Richards

  • Far exceeded my expectations. The teams ability to resolve challenges along the way made the whole process easy and stress less

    Maria Vlassis

  • We recently had our lounge diner, kitchen, utility room and bathroom fully renovated by Ben and his team, and we honestly couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for our home were outstanding. Ben and his team were meticulous in every aspect of their work. Nothing was rushed, and every finish – from the tiling and cabinetry to the lighting and final touches – was completed to an exceptionally high standard. Their eye for detail truly shows in the finished spaces, which not only look beautiful but feel thoughtfully designed and expertly crafted. What really set them apart, though, was their friendliness and consideration throughout the project. They were always punctual, respectful of our home, and kept everything as clean and tidy as possible during the renovation. They communicated clearly at every stage, listened to our ideas, and offered helpful suggestions to ensure the best possible outcome. It’s rare to find a team that combines such skill, reliability, and genuine courtesy. We felt completely confident in their hands from day one. We would highly recommend Ben and his team to anyone considering a renovation – you won’t be disappointed

    Ian Smith

  • Adelaide Heritage Renovations did next door’s renovations and I was impressed so I had them come and build my deck and landscape my backyard. So very happy with everything from design to build, the team handled everything so I did not need to do anything at all!

    Suzy

  • Came recommended and didn't disappoint. Ben and the team did a fantastic job on a full gut and refit of our two-storey. A huge job, done well and finished to a high standard. Thanks for bringing our vision to life, guys. Highly recommend Adelaide Heritage Renovations.

  • Fantastic company to go through. Ben and the team are amazing, great at what they do and excellent communication. Highly recommend Adelaide Heritage Renovations.

    Rachel Hartwell

  • Ben and the team were fantastic in coming in to fix up the mother's unit for sale including replacing sections of ceiling, repairing cracks and preparing surfaces, cornice work, some electrical and then painting throughout. They made the job easy to understand and made it clear what to expect and offered great advice from the outset. They did a great job in really good time and without any hassle, which was exactly what we were after.
