Flat Pack or Custom Made Kitchen – Which One Is Best For Your Home?

Is kitchen renovation on your mind? Well, you have two options to choose from – flat pack and custom made kitchen. You can directly order or buy a flat pack kitchen from the store, and then assemble it in your kitchen. Conversely, a custom made kitchen is exclusively made and installed in your kitchen for a perfect fit. With both options, you’ll be able to decide if you want budget-friendly or premium quality construction including hinges, handles, drawer runners, and skirting boards.

First, you need to figure out which option will be best for you, so let’s go through each one of them to understand their benefits and drawbacks.

Flat Pack Kitchen

Flat Pack Kitchen

When you order a flat pack kitchen, you must assemble and install it correctly. If not installed correctly, then it could degrade your entire house property and also will cost you more in the long-term. If you’re on a tight budget, then it’s better to get the assistance of a professional to install your DIY or flat pack kitchen correctly. Your flat pack kitchen installation will include:

  • Tiles and floorboards

  • Kitchen benchtop and splashback

  • The kitchen sink needs to connect to the plumbing

  • Shelving and cabinets

  • Connecting your electricity and gas lines

  • Light fittings

Flat pack kitchens are more affordable than custom made kitchens; however, they provide you limited choice for material, colour and finish selection. Besides, if your property is older, then the walls may not be straight or the same length. It could make it tough to align the new fittings. So if you’re selecting a flat pack kitchen, it’s vital to figure out and accommodate the fees of a professional installation and fitment. If this is not feasible, then a custom made kitchen would suit your needs better.
