Kitchen Renovation in Timișoara

About this service

The most common mistake in a kitchen renovation isn't technical but procedural: the plumbing and electrical work starts before the furniture design is finalised. The result is a socket hidden behind a unit, an extractor outlet that doesn't line up with the ducting, or a water connection emerging exactly where a drawer needs to sit. An experienced tradesperson asks for the furniture plan with exact dimensions first, then marks the final positions of sockets, connections, and the extract on the wall, confirming them with the client before breaking anything. The work area needs dedicated circuits for every major appliance, and an electric or induction hob requires large-section cable run directly from the board.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

Who coordinates the renovation team with the furniture fitters?

That's your responsibility, unless you contract a single supplier for everything. In practice, the building team must complete finishes and services before the units are delivered, and the plumber returns after the units are installed to connect the sink and dishwasher.
