Kitchen Renovations St George
Custom kitchens designed, manufactured and installed by one experienced Sydney team
Planning a kitchen renovation or remodel in St George? Cummins Joinery designs and delivers custom kitchens that combine considered design, practical storage and quality craftsmanship.
Whether you want to refresh an ageing kitchen within its existing footprint or complete a major kitchen remodel with a new layout, our experienced team can guide your project from the first design conversation through to manufacturing and installation.
Every Cummins Joinery kitchen is made to measure in our Sydney workshop. There are no standard layouts or flat-pack cabinets. Instead, we design your kitchen around your home, your available space and the way you use it every day.

Custom Kitchens Designed for St George Homes
A successful kitchen renovation is not simply about choosing new colours and finishes. It is an opportunity to improve how your kitchen functions and how it connects with the rest of your home.
Your existing kitchen may be short on storage, disconnected from the dining or living area, or difficult to move through when more than one person is cooking. Appliances may not fit properly, corners may be underused and the cabinetry may no longer suit your household.
Our designers look at the complete space and help you determine what should stay, what should change and where your renovation budget will make the greatest difference.
Our custom kitchen renovation and remodelling services can include:
- Custom kitchen cabinets and drawers
- Kitchen islands and breakfast bars
- Butler’s pantries and walk-in pantries
- Integrated appliance cabinetry
- Stone and solid-surface benchtops
- Splashbacks and feature finishes
- Open shelving and display cabinetry
- Pull-out storage and internal organisers
- Lighting and electrical integration
- Custom solutions for compact or awkward spaces
The result is a kitchen designed specifically for your home rather than adapted from a standard template.
Kitchen Makeover, Remodel or Full Renovation?
Not every kitchen needs to be completely rebuilt. We offer flexible renovation options based on the condition of your existing kitchen, how well the layout works and what you want the finished space to achieve.
Kitchen Makeovers
A kitchen makeover may be suitable when the existing footprint still works but the cabinetry, benchtops, storage or finishes need updating.
Your kitchen makeover could include:
- New custom cabinetry
- Replacement doors and drawer fronts
- New benchtops and splashbacks
- Updated handles and hardware
- Improved internal storage
- New lighting and finishing details
- Better integration of existing appliances
Retaining the existing layout can reduce the amount of building and trade work required while still delivering a significant transformation.
Kitchen Remodels
A kitchen remodel generally involves making more substantial changes to the way the room is configured and used. It may include changing the cabinetry layout, relocating appliances, improving connections with adjoining rooms or creating an entirely new kitchen footprint.
A custom kitchen remodel can be particularly valuable when the existing space feels closed off, has poor workflow or no longer meets the needs of your household.
If you are considering a kitchen remodel in St George, our team can assess the existing space and identify opportunities to improve storage, movement, natural light and the relationship between the kitchen and surrounding living areas.
Full Kitchen Renovations
A complete kitchen renovation allows you to correct problems with the existing layout and create a space that better supports everyday living.
This may involve:
- Reconfiguring the kitchen floor plan
- Opening the kitchen to adjoining living areas
- Relocating plumbing and electrical services
- Adding an island or breakfast bar
- Creating a butler’s pantry
- Upgrading or integrating appliances
- Increasing preparation and storage space
- Coordinating new flooring, lighting and finishes
Cummins Joinery can manage the complete renovation, including the design, custom joinery, installation and coordination of the licensed trades required to complete the project.
Made-to-Measure Kitchen Joinery
Your cabinets are designed to fit the dimensions of your room and make better use of the available space. This provides greater flexibility when working around existing walls, windows, ceiling heights, services and architectural details.
It also means your storage can be planned around what you actually need to keep in the kitchen.
That might include deep drawers for cookware, dedicated appliance storage, pull-out pantry systems, integrated bins, narrow storage beside an oven or a combination of concealed and open shelving.
Our kitchen joinery is manufactured locally in our Sydney workshop using quality materials, finishes and hardware from trusted suppliers. Each component is then installed by an experienced team familiar with the design and construction of your kitchen.
You can explore examples of our custom cabinetry and completed renovations in the Cummins Joinery project gallery.
Kitchen Design That Works for the Way You Live
You do not need to arrive with a finished kitchen plan.
Our in-house kitchen design service helps you work through the important decisions, from the overall layout to the smaller details that affect how the kitchen feels and functions.
We will discuss:
- How your household uses the kitchen
- What works and does not work in the current layout
- Storage and appliance requirements
- Preparation, cooking and cleaning zones
- Connections with dining and living spaces
- Cabinetry styles and finishes
- Benchtop and splashback materials
- Hardware, lighting and practical details
- Your priorities and available budget
Detailed drawings and visualisation can help you understand how the proposed design will come together before manufacturing begins.
Because the same team understands both kitchen design and construction, recommendations are based on what can be built successfully, not simply what looks appealing on a screen.

A Fully Managed Kitchen Renovation
Coordinating cabinetry, demolition, plumbing, electrical work, tiling and installation can quickly become one of the most difficult parts of a kitchen renovation.
Cummins Joinery offers an end-to-end service so you are not left managing separate suppliers and contractors yourself.
1. Consultation and Measure
We begin by discussing your existing kitchen, goals, preferred style and renovation budget. Our team assesses the space and takes the measurements required to begin planning your kitchen.
2. Kitchen Design and Selections
We develop a practical layout and guide you through cabinetry, benchtops, finishes, hardware and storage options. You can also visit our Peakhurst kitchen showroom to view materials and examples in person.
3. Local Manufacturing
Once the design is approved, your custom kitchen joinery is manufactured in our Sydney workshop. Building locally gives our team greater oversight of quality, fit and finishing.
4. Installation and Trade Coordination
Our team coordinates delivery and installation, along with licensed plumbing, electrical, tiling and plastering trades where required. We keep the different stages of the renovation moving in the correct order and maintain clear communication throughout the project.
We coordinate all licensed trades, including plumbing, electrical, tiling and plastering – so you don’t have to juggle contractors.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you manage the complete kitchen renovation?
Yes. Cummins Joinery can manage your kitchen from design and custom cabinetry through to installation and final completion.
For full renovations and kitchen remodels, we can also coordinate licensed trades including plumbing, electrical, tiling and plastering.
Can we keep our existing kitchen layout?
Yes. When the current layout still works, a kitchen makeover can update the cabinetry, benchtops, splashback, hardware and storage without completely changing the footprint.
We will assess whether retaining the layout is the best use of your budget or whether targeted changes could significantly improve the kitchen.
Is your kitchen cabinetry custom-made?
Yes. Every Cummins Joinery kitchen is made to measure. Your cabinetry is designed for the dimensions of your space and manufactured locally in our Sydney workshop.
Can you help us design the kitchen?
Yes. Kitchen design is included as part of our renovation service. We can help with layout planning, storage, materials, finishes, hardware and appliance integration.
You do not need to have a completed design before contacting us.
Can you remodel a small kitchen or apartment kitchen?
Yes. Custom joinery is particularly useful in compact kitchens because cabinetry and storage can be designed around the exact available space.
We can explore options such as full-height cabinetry, integrated appliances, internal organisers and storage solutions for narrow or otherwise underused areas.
How much does a kitchen renovation cost?
The cost depends on the kitchen size, layout, cabinetry, benchtop materials, appliances and the amount of plumbing, electrical and building work required.
Read our detailed guide to how much a kitchen renovation costs in Sydney, or contact our team for a quote based on your property and project.
How long does a kitchen remodel take?
The timeframe depends on the size and complexity of the project, the amount of custom joinery required and whether plumbing, electrical services or walls need to be changed.
Once we understand the scope of your renovation, we can explain the expected stages and provide a clearer project schedule.
How do we get started?
Contact Cummins Joinery to arrange an initial consultation. We will discuss your current kitchen, what you want to improve, your preferred style and your approximate budget before recommending the next steps.
What is the difference between a kitchen renovation and a kitchen remodel?
The terms are often used interchangeably. A kitchen renovation may involve updating cabinetry, benchtops, finishes and appliances while retaining much of the existing layout.
A kitchen remodel usually involves more substantial changes to the layout or structure of the space, such as relocating appliances, changing plumbing and electrical services, adding an island or opening the kitchen to an adjoining living area.
Cummins Joinery can help with anything from a targeted kitchen makeover to a complete kitchen remodel.
