Kitchen Renovation in Dej

About this service

A kitchen renovation combines plumbing, electrical, and finishing work with an additional stage other rooms don't have: integrating the units and appliances, which must be planned to the millimetre before anything starts. A complete team strips out the old units and tiling, reworks the water and waste runs for the sink and dishwasher, pulls dedicated electrical circuits for the hob, oven, extractor, fridge, and worktop sockets, installs or relocates the gas connection through a licensed fitter, applies levelling render, lays floor tiles and the splashback or other protection on the work area, decorates, and finally installs the units, worktop, sink, tap, and integrated appliances. The correct sequence and, above all, the exact positioning of connections relative to the furniture design is what separates a functional kitchen from one where doors collide with appliances. On SmallJobs you'll find experienced teams with real reviews and competitive rates.

What to check before hiring a kitchen renovation

Finalise the furniture design before services work starts — it's the most expensive mistake to get wrong
Order the units early; production lead times are often 3–6 weeks
Ask for dedicated circuits for the hob, oven, dishwasher, and fridge
Mark the final socket and connection positions on the wall and confirm them before anything is cut
Insist on sealing the worktop cut-out edge, particularly on chipboard worktops
Check the extractor duct route before ordering wall units

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a kitchen renovation cost in Dej?

For an 8–12 square metre kitchen, complete labour typically falls between 4,500 and 18,000 RON, depending on area and the scope of work. Units, worktop, and appliances represent the largest part of the budget, however, typically 10,000–40,000 RON depending on the quality chosen.

How long does a kitchen renovation take?

The building and services work takes 10–18 working days. Add to that furniture production time, usually 3–6 weeks from order, which is why units must be ordered early. Installing the units and appliances themselves takes another 2–4 days.

Why do I need the furniture design before starting?

Because the positions of sockets, water connections, extractor ducting, and appliance circuits depend directly on the unit layout. Without a plan, you risk sockets hidden behind a cupboard, a connection emerging where a drawer must sit, or an extractor that doesn't align with the ducting. It's the most expensive mistake.

What electrical circuits does a kitchen need?

Ideally dedicated circuits for the hob, oven, dishwasher, fridge, and extractor, plus a separate circuit for worktop sockets. An electric or induction hob needs 4–6 mm² cable run directly from the board. A single circuit for the whole kitchen is insufficient and leads to repeated tripping.

Can the sink be moved elsewhere?

Yes, but relocating the waste is limited by the need for a continuous fall to the stack. In flats, the practical distance is 2–3 metres; beyond that the risk of repeated blockages rises. Moving the water supply is far simpler. Discuss this option before finalising the furniture plan.

Do I need tiling on the whole wall or just the work area?

Protection is only needed between the worktop and wall units, where splashes occur. You can use tiles, toughened glass, composite panel, or durable washable paint. The remaining walls are decorated normally. The choice affects cost as well as how easy it is to clean over time.
