We want to thank Geoff, Lisa, Craig & team, plumber and the lovely electrician Phil for the amazing transformation at our home. Geoff & Lisa were great to work with in the planning stages and gave great advice. This continued through the whole process and our job was not an easy one. They transformed a really challenging kitchen into a social kitchen area that is a pleasure to cook and entertain in. We put a lot of trust in Geoff’s ideas especially removing our laundry and putting it under our stairs. This was my biggest concern but the result is terrific! Our kitchen renovation was really half of our house and we couldn’t be happier! Not often can you say you got a better result than expected. Special mention to Craig the time, patience and effort he put into finishing some more challenging jobs was amazing! The team are very professional, neat & tidy and absolutely a pleasure to work with, we can’t thank them enough!

I just wanted to thank you all – love my new laundry and even doing the washing is now (almost!) a pleasure. 😊 All your Tradies were polite, professional and punctual and cleaned up after themselves which was lovely. Geoff’s communication with us meant we always knew what was going on and when …. and you have been a delight to email with prompt responses and updates. Despite a few small hiccups, that were dealt with promptly, we are extremely pleased with the whole experience and the end result. Please pass on my thanks to the whole Cummins team.

It has been our pleasure to work with Geoff Cummins and his team over the past year. Professional, communicative and clear transparent financial and administration processes. He added value to what we were looking to achieve in converting a 1960s red brick home to one which breathes fresh air, accessibility and modern convenience while retaining the warmth and scale of a smaller (down sizing home). Geoff brings personal hands on design skills and practical understanding of how cabinetry is used in a home. He knows construction thoroughly and resolved many issues throughout the job. We had a very high level of confidence that he knew how every trade should be doing their job and had no problem in ensuring that no detail went unchecked. A special note about his joinery, cabinets and installation. Converting our kitchen while opening a new doorway on one wall, coupled with two ceiling heights and differing existing cornices was a masterpiece of detail and finishing. We now have the kitchen and adjoining areas we were looking for. In an industry known and publicised through so many disastrous builds and poor work Cummins stands out as a centre of excellence. We highly recommend Geoff Cummins to you if you are looking for 'old school' know- how matched with a knowledge of contemporary living, appliances and finishes.

I had a great experience with Cummins Joinery. I sent an email Sunday night and by 10am the next day I had a quote and booking for the works to be done. On the day the tradesmen were on time and very professional. All works were completed without issue. I highly recommend and would use Cummins Joinery again. Thanks Geoff and the team!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in your renovation design service?

Our design service develops a practical layout and cohesive look for your project, considering how the space is used, storage, cabinetry, materials, colours, fixtures, lighting and the details needed to move confidently towards construction.

Can you improve an existing layout without changing everything?

Yes. We can assess what already works and refine the areas that limit flow, storage or usability. A considered design does not always require moving every service or replacing every element.

Do you design kitchens, bathrooms, laundries and home offices?

Yes. We design kitchens, bathrooms, laundries, home offices, custom joinery and complete home renovation spaces, with cabinetry planned specifically for each room and household.

Can you help select materials, colours and finishes?

Yes. Our team helps coordinate cabinetry finishes, benchtops, tiles, fixtures, hardware and other selections so the palette is practical, durable and consistent with your preferred style.

Can you design for a small or difficult space?

Yes. Careful planning and made-to-measure joinery can improve compact rooms, apartments and awkward layouts by using the available space more efficiently.

How much does a renovation design service cost?

The cost depends on the number of rooms, project complexity and level of design detail required. After an initial discussion, we can explain the appropriate design scope and provide clear pricing.

How long does the design process take?

Timing varies with the project size, the number of selections and the revisions required. We outline the design stages and expected timeframe at the beginning of the process.

What should I bring to a design consultation?

Bring any plans, measurements, photos and inspiration you have, along with notes about your priorities, storage needs, preferred style and budget. These details help us make the first conversation productive.

How do I book a renovation design consultation?

Request a free quote or book an appointment at our Peakhurst showroom. We will discuss the rooms involved and recommend the next step for your design and renovation.
