Luxury Kitchens Gold Coast
When renovating a luxury kitchen on the gold Coast, the aim is to have certain inclusions that appeal to buyers at the upper end of the market. Although gorgeous inclusions in their own right, items such as pendant lights and stone benchtops are mostly expected in new kitchens today. Buyers at this end of the market are looking for details that impress and create an overall luxurious finish.
Luxury Kitchen Design
Apart from luxury countertops, professional appliances and custom-cabinetry, what sets a luxury kitchen renovation apart from the rest are its thoughtful layout and design. Our architectural Kitchen designer will help you work out the best layout for your luxury kitchen renovation depending on its size and location. Concept drawings and 3D renders of your renovation can help you visualise how the finished surfaces will look and work together.
Luxury Kitchen Appliances
The stovetop and oven are the stars in the luxury kitchen renovation. Be it a five or six hob gas cooktop or an extra large induction cooktop. Add a luxury range hood to the mix to set the design tone for the rest of your kitchen. A set of built-in wall ovens is ideal to complement your cooking ensemble. They add visual appeal to your kitchen and let you cook up a storm.
Finally, a double-door stainless steel fridge with integrated or a separate wine fridge will keep your food and drinks chilled while a set of double-drawer dishwashers can take care of the dirty work.
Luxury Kitchen Countertops
Countertops often are the centrepiece of your kitchen, especially if you have a central kitchen island. Natural stone is a popular choice, particularly granite and marble. A luxury kitchen benchtop is much more than just a showpiece, It’s a place for socialising, cooking, sharing and living.

Accurate Machine Cut
With our state of the art CNC Machine, Edger Bander and Table Saw we can guarantee accurate cutting. This type of machinery allows us to provide very accurate quotes with minimal wastage as the material is maximized when it comes to cutting and edging.
Custom Manufacturing/build
Our machinery gives us the flexibility to manufacture full custom-sized cabinetry, meaning you will not end up with awkward layouts as you might with a cut to size/ pre-manufacture cabinet maker.
Choice Of Finishes
2Pac (Polyurethane Finish) is very similar to the paint on your car. It is a 2 part product consisting of a hardener and a paint component.
The upside of 2Pac (VS Laminate) is that you don’t have to edge a door which gives a better finish. The range of colours you get to choose from is much wider than laminate as you can choose any paint colour (Dulux, Taubmans…)
As with car paint, maintenance is important. You should never use abrasive cleaning product like gumption or cream cleanser as it will leave abrasions and marks on your 2pac fronts.
When looked after well, 2Pac will last beautifully for many, many years to come.
Laminate is a more affordable product than 2pac. The downsides being that every door, drawer fronts, panels will have a 1mm edge all around and you do not have as many colours to choose from.
The upside is that you can get laminates in different finishes (timber grains, veined stone…) and it is also a very hard-wearing product. Preferable to have laminate if you have small children running around as it is more hardy.
Payments
Our payment terms are:
5% Deposit Required Prior Check Measure
45% Progress Required Prior Manufacture (upon approval or working drawings)
45% Progress Required Upon Delivery to Site
5% Final Required Upon Completion
We also do design fees to do up 3D images of your cabinetry. This design fee gets fully refunded should you choose to proceed/go ahead with us.
I used BJF Joinery to install a new kitchen at my place at Mermaid Beach after having this company recommended to me by a friend who said they had a reputation on the Gold Coast for doing a superior job. My job included complete removal of the old kitchen, new custom-made cabinets, metaline, stone benches, plumbing, electrical work, and additional plastering work. They didn’t disappoint as they:
• significantly improved my original plan;
• organized and executed everything in a timely and detailed fashion;
• worked on a trust basis (they had the key to the residence, I wasn’t
there most of the time);
• kept me fully informed at all stages; and
• acted with courtesy and professionalism at all times.
My wife and I smile every time we walk into our new kitchen. Thanks Tom, Joel and the rest of the team.

Kitchen Finishes, Accessories and Appliances
KITCHEN BENCHTOPS
Our range of kitchen benchtops will suit your lifestyle and budget. Options include:
LAMINATE
If you are running tight on budget, this can be your best option. Laminate benchtops are available in a variety of colours and finishes. It also comes in stone or marble resemblance. You can even avail them in matt finish. Have a look at some of the best laminate benchtops in town- https://www.laminex.com.au/
Natural Stone Kitchen Benchtops
Stones are naturally beautiful and possess the power to make each slab appear unique. While marble is a more popular choice amongst bakers as its ideal for rolling out pastries, it gets easily stained by things such as vinegar, red wine, coffee and spices, etc. Granite benchtops, on the other hand, is less porous than marble and therefore more stain-resistant.
Timber Kitchen Benchtops
Timber benchtops are a culmination of different solid pieces that have been laminated together. Finishing is required before using benchtops made up of timber/wood. With proper oiling, they can be even made to absorb spills. Another material that’s in vogue in the benchtop market is bamboo. They are highly durable and can be refinished after a couple of years to make it’s as good as new.
Engineered Stone Kitchen Benchtops
When crushed quartz is bonded with resin, the resultant material is referred to as an engineered stone. Benchtops made of engineered stone are available in a multitude of colours and finishes. If you wish to purchase it in the form of an entire slab, the length can be unrestricted. Anything beyond 3m however would require joins. Here’s a specimen of how perfect engineered stone benchtops look like – http://www.essastone.com.au/
Polished Concrete Kitchen Benchtops
Polished concrete benchtops boast an amazing raw finish. They are formed on the site and require the additional sub-floor to support its weight. They can be customised in a variety of ways. You can either seal them before use or get them finished to appear rough or refined. They can even be coloured with the help of tinting.
KITCHEN CABINETS
Our custom kitchen cabinets can suit your needs and design preferences.
Cabinets
Kitchen cabinet “carcasses” are commonly manufactured using medium-density fibreboard(MDF) which often performs better than solid wood in many areas. Doors and drawer fronts can be made using laminate, vinyl-wrap or Two Pack depending on your desired finish. Laminate is the most affordable option; whereas Two Pack is the most expensive as it requires a more time-consuming production process. Vinyl-wrap is another affordable option which provides a luxurious, gloss-finish that is found in numerous high-end kitchens. Due to the similarities of the two Pack and vinyl-wrap finishes, sometimes even professionals find it difficult to decipher which method was used for a particular project.

When it comes to DIY kitchens, we often see people that think it will be cheaper to get a flat pack kitchen and put it in themselves, but what they don’t realise is that the price of the flat pack kitchen doesn’t include labour.
If the customer is thinking of re sale value, it is always good to keep in mind future buyers and what they might like.
Nowadays we are moving towards open plan living which means combining the kitchen, living and dining areas into one big space which means ripping out walls and creating opening and doing a full on renovation as opposed to adding on to the existing kitchen.
Current trends include open-plan layouts, abundant natural light, a seamless indoor-outdoor flow, modern aesthetics with sleek lines, eco-friendly materials, and the integration of smart kitchen technology.
The coastal environment influences kitchen design by emphasising features such as natural light, open spaces, and an easy transition to outdoor living areas to complement the beachside lifestyle.
Yes, there are many kitchen specialists on the Gold Coast who offer custom design services to meet your specific needs and preferences.
When selecting a service, consider the company’s experience, reputation, the quality of products they offer, the design consultation process, and the warranty and aftercare services they provide.
Absolutely, there is a growing demand for eco-friendly options, and many suppliers now offer sustainable materials and energy-efficient appliances.
Popular materials include stone, laminate, and engineered surfaces, each offering a range of colours and finishes to suit different styles and budgets.
Lighting is crucial in kitchen design for functionality and creating an inviting atmosphere. It’s important to consider a combination of natural and artificial lighting solutions.
Modern Gold Coast kitchens may include smart appliances like ovens and fridges that can be controlled via smartphones, LED lighting systems, and advanced range hoods and cooktops.
