Wondering how long a kitchen renovation takes? At Kube, it’s typically 8–12 weeks — depending on layout changes, custom materials, and trades availability. Learn how to keep your project on time and stress-free with Kube’s help.
One of the first questions homeowners ask when planning a kitchen renovation is simple: How long will this take? While every project is unique, understanding the typical timeline helps you set realistic expectations and plan with confidence.
At Kube Interiors, we specialise in designing and installing kitchens across Ireland, from Dublin city apartments to spacious homes in Cork, Galway and Dublin. Our process is designed to be as efficient and predictable as possible—without compromising on quality.
Below, we’ll break down each phase of a kitchen renovation, so you know exactly what to expect.
In Ireland, most kitchen renovations take 8 to 12 weeks from start to finish. The total timeline depends on:
At Kube Interiors, we find that planning and preparation are what ultimately keep projects on track. By finalising design decisions early and using detailed surveys, your renovation stays smooth and predictable.
Every home and project is different, so there’s no one-size-fits-all schedule. Your exact renovation timeline will be discussed with your kitchen design expert, who will guide you through each stage based on your layout, materials, and installation needs.
This phase begins with a showroom consultation. During your visit, you’ll:
Once you approve the design, we prepare detailed technical plans. This process usually takes between 2–4 weeks, depending on how quickly decisions are made.
Tip: Faster approvals mean a faster start. Having a clear idea of your style and requirements helps keep this phase efficient.
After you’ve signed off on your design, our team carries out a technical survey of your kitchen space. We take precise measurements and note existing plumbing and electrical points. These details are used to finalise your order and prepare your installation plan.
Your Customer Services contact will confirm estimated delivery and installation dates, so you can begin planning any preparatory works.
Kube Interiors offers a carefully curated range of premium German kitchen ranges, all available to view and customise in our Irish showrooms. Rather than made-to-order manufacturing, clients select from high-quality product lines that are already established—streamlining timelines without sacrificing style or quality.
While your kitchen is being prepared for delivery and installation, you can use this time to:
If you’re replacing an old kitchen, the old units and appliances need to be removed. In some cases, walls are replastered, plumbing moved, or electrics upgraded. Depending on the complexity, this preparatory stage may take a few days to two weeks.
Your new kitchen is delivered by Kube’s trained logistics team. Installation typically lasts 2–4 days, though larger or more intricate designs can take up to a week. Our installers handle fitting cabinets, aligning doors and drawers, and installing integrated appliances.
If you’ve chosen a stone, quartz, or wooden worktop, it will be templated once the cabinets are in place. Fabrication and fitting of the worktop takes approximately 10 days. During this window, your electrician and plumber can complete first-fix connections.
Once the worktop is installed, final connections for sinks, taps, hobs, and lighting are made. This typically requires a few days to complete and test.
Before your project is signed off, our team carries out a final quality check to ensure everything meets Kube’s standards. We’ll walk you through the completed kitchen, demonstrate how appliances work, and answer any questions.
While most kitchen renovations stay within the 4–8 week window, certain factors can cause delays:
The best way to avoid delays is to make decisions early and maintain open communication with your kitchen designer and project manager.
Here are a few tips to keep your project running smoothly:
