At this level the cabinetry, the stone and the appliances are each specified individually rather than taken as a package. That is what separates a luxury kitchen from an expensive standard one.
Expect the design stage to be substantial and paid for properly. Standard-scope work is covered under Kitchen Renovations Cape Town.

- Cabinetry. Sprayed duco or solid timber, with every carcass built to the room rather than to module widths.
- Hardware. A full Blum or Hettich specification across twenty-plus doors is a five-figure line on its own.
- Stone. Book-matched slabs, mitred waterfall ends and a matching full-height splashback.
- Appliances. Frequently the largest single line, and they must be chosen before cabinetry is cut.

These are indicative market ranges, not a quotation. They are compiled from published South African kitchen pricing to give you a starting point for budgeting. They are not the rate card of any company on this platform.
At this level, insist on a named specification for every component - board, edging, hinge brand, stone range and slab number. A luxury quote without those details is not comparable to one that has them.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a kitchen 'luxury' rather than just expensive?
Specification depth. Every component is chosen individually - board, hardware brand, stone slab, appliance model - rather than taken as a supplier's package.
A large kitchen in standard materials costs a lot without being a luxury kitchen.
How long does a luxury kitchen take?
Typically three to six months from first design meeting to handover. Design and approval alone often take six to eight weeks.
Imported appliances and hardware carry their own lead times and are the usual cause of delay.
Should I pay for design separately?
At this level, yes. A paid independent designer has no product range to sell you, and the fee is small against the build cost.
Manufacturer design is free but is drawn around what they make.
Do I need to choose appliances before manufacturing?
Always. Integrated housings are built to the specific model's dimensions, so a late change means a new housing and a new door rather than a swap.
