How much does a Bunnings kitchen install cost? [2025]

It’s no secret that kitchen renos come with a hefty price tag and with today’s cost of living, it can be an expense that puts many off building their dream home. Thankfully, there are affordable options out there. With a Bunnings kitchen installation, you can bring your dream kitchen to life – whether you want to upgrade the cabinets, countertops or completely redo the room. 

Read on to find out more about Bunnings kitchen installation costs and how you can find the best tradie to fit your new kitchen. 

What type of kitchen fittings can you get at Bunnings?

If you have an idea for your ultimate kitchen, Bunnings has the products to make it a reality. The hardware store has expanded its kitchen range and now sells: 

• Cupboards, cabinets and pantries

• Benchtops

• Taps, sinks and filtration

• Appliances

• Splashbacks

• Kitchenware

• Tableware

Whether or not you decide to include all of the above features will have a direct impact on your final Bunnings kitchen installation cost. 

After all, a smaller renovation that only requires a new splashback and minor appliances will generally be cheaper than a complete overhaul with a new marble countertop, cut-to-measure cabinetry and brand-new oven and stovetop.

How much does a kitchen from Bunnings cost?

The cost of your materials depends entirely on how much of an overhaul you’re doing. 

Something as simple as your countertop can have a huge range depending on the materials you’re using. To make matters more confusing, different materials are measured differently–by linear metre, square metre or by precut size. 

To make things easier, Bunnings sells complete kitchens for $869, which makes your decision less complicated. 

What’s the average Bunnings kitchen installation cost?

Flat pack kitchens are faster to install and considerably cheaper than a custom kitchen. Depending on the size and quality of the kitchen you choose, a flat pack kitchen could help you to save anywhere from 20% to 50% on the price of a custom kitchen.

Depending on the scope of your project, you can expect to pay anywhere from $4,500 to $15,000 for a flat pack kitchen installation. However, on average you’ll pay around $6,000 to $10,000 for a kitchen installation from Bunnings.

Bear in mind there may also be other costs. If you book an in-store or virtual consultation with a Bunnings kitchen expert to design your kitchen, you’ll have to pay $49. This goes up to $99 if you want them to visit your home. 

What’s cheaper: a Bunnings or Ikea kitchen?

If you’re not looking for a custom kitchen, the two big names in Australia are Bunnings and Ikea. So which should you go for? 

Both offer a wide range of products, giving you scope to pick and choose. No matter what style you want or materials you desire, you have options at both stores. 

Where Bunnings pips Ikea is value. While both offer great value for money, for those shopping on a budget Bunnings comes out on top.
