Kitchen Renovation in Frâncești

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.

What to check before hiring a kitchen renovation

Book the licensed gas fitter early — it depends on their schedule, not yours
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

Frequently Asked Questions

What should a kitchen renovation quote contain?

A list of operations by stage, estimated quantities — square metres of tiling, linear metres of pipework, number of circuits — labour separated from materials, the completion timescale, and a contingency margin. Ask explicitly whether unit installation and appliance connection are included.

How do I check the quality at the end?

Check floor and worktop flatness with a straightedge, socket alignment against the furniture plan, each circuit under load, the tightness of connections under the sink after a few hours of use, and that the extractor draws properly. Also check that unit doors don't collide with each other.

What warranty do I get on a kitchen renovation?

Labour is usually warranted for 2–5 years. Units and appliances carry the manufacturer's warranty. Request the warranty in writing and ask for photographs of the pipe routes and electrical circuits before they're covered — these are the documents that matter for any future work.

How much does a kitchen renovation cost in Frâncești?

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.
