What is different about kitchen renovation in Bendigo
Bendigo kitchen renovations fall into two camps. In the goldfields-era homes of Golden Square, Long Gully, California Gully and the central grid, the kitchen is often part of bringing a Victorian or Edwardian house up to date, with old wiring, galvanised plumbing, uneven timber floors and lath-and-plaster to contend with before the cabinetry goes in. In the newer estates at Strathfieldsaye, Huntly and Maiden Gully, it is a straightforward replacement in a standard footprint.

Heritage homes
Old services, uneven floors and lath-and-plaster walls add cost and time in the older suburbs.
Local cabinetmakers
Bendigo makers build to measure and install, which suits houses where nothing is square.
Melbourne supply
Stone, appliances and flat-pack come easily from Melbourne; lead times are close to the capital’s.
Heating
Kitchens in cold Bendigo homes often gain heating or hydronic elements, which affects electrical and plumbing planning.
