Aspects to consider when furnishing the kitchen with Reformia

Having your personal needs clearly defined

1. Having your personal needs clearly defined

It is important to establish a series of basic criteria beforehand to choose the most suitable cabinets. This basically means determining whether the goal is to gain storage space, if you only want to renew the style of the kitchen, if it is necessary to modify the current layout, if you need especially resistant or durable cabinets, etc. All these questions will determine the choice of furniture to equip the kitchen.

Kitchen layout

2. Kitchen layout

There are several possibilities and will largely depend on the shape and dimensions of the kitchen. For this reason, the first step should always be to design the layout, which can be linear, U-shaped, or L-shaped. You should also consider whether it is possible to put an island or a peninsula.

Appliance placement

3. Appliance placement

Choosing the most suitable placement will depend on two basic aspects. The first is whether or not it is possible to create that work triangle. The second is the location of water outlets and electrical outlets, which determine the placement of appliances.

The average price of furnishing a kitchen is around 5,000 €, with prices ranging from 3,500 € if you choose medium-quality materials, to 10,000 € if you opt for high-quality materials and energy-efficient appliances.

Steps to furnish your kitchen

The average price of furnishing a kitchen is around 5,000 €, with prices ranging from 3,500 € if you choose medium-quality materials, to 10,000 € if you opt for high-quality materials and energy-efficient appliances.

1. Define your total available budget

1. Define your total available budget

Before furnishing your kitchen, set a realistic budget. Prices range from 2,000 € to 10,000 € depending on desired quality. Consider whether you prefer basic furnishing (3,500 € - 4,500 €), standard (5,000 € - 7,000 €), or premium (9,000 € - 12,000 €) to make informed decisions.

2. Measure the space and plan the layout

2. Measure the space and plan the layout

Measure your kitchen precisely and create a detailed floor plan. This is crucial for accurately calculating furniture budget and avoiding costly surprises. A well-planned design maximizes space and helps properly allocate the average 5,000 € budget.

3. Choose the type of furniture and materials

3. Choose the type of furniture and materials

Select materials according to your budget: melamine for basic options, solid wood for standard, and stainless steel or premium materials for high-end ranges. Your choice of finishes and furniture quality will directly impact your total kitchen furnishing investment.

4. Select energy-efficient appliances

4. Select energy-efficient appliances

Appliances represent a significant portion of your total budget. Look for energy-efficient models that fit your price range. Quality appliances between 1,500 € and 3,000 € are a good investment within standard kitchen furnishing (5,000 € - 7,000 €).

What can change your final price

Even similar projects can end with different budgets. These are the factors that most often push costs up or down.

Kitchen size and layout

Small kitchens (less than 6 m²) require fewer cabinets and materials, while large kitchens or those with irregular shapes need custom solutions that significantly increase the final budget.

Material and finishing quality

The type of melamine, particleboard, or solid wood used in the cabinets, as well as finishes (matte, gloss, wood effect), directly influence the price, ranging from budget-friendly options to premium ranges.

Included appliances

The incorporation of energy-efficient appliances (A+++ rated), ceramic cooktop, oven, refrigerator, or dishwasher, especially from recognized brands, can double or triple the total budget.

Additional works and installations

Renovations that require pipe redistribution, electrical installation, tile changes, or additional construction work generate extra costs that can range between 1.000 € and 3.000 €.

Installing countertops and kitchen islands

The average price of installing a countertop will vary greatly depending on the material chosen and quality. The most common and economical are those made of particleboard covered with PVC or melamine sheets. More expensive options with greater resistance and quality are solid wood, natural stone (marble or granite), quartz, or Neolith. It is also possible to make countertops with porcelain stoneware.

  • Furnishing a 13 m² kitchen with L-shaped cabinets of 4 x 2 m can cost between 6,000 € and 9,000 € with installation and appliances included.
  • Furnishing a 4 linear meter kitchen with custom-made wood cabinets by a carpenter, including design, labor, and materials, can cost up to 12,000 €.
  • A+++ refrigerator: from 900 €.

As for islands, they are practical and functional. You can install the cooking area, washing area, or use them as a work or dining space. The dimensions can vary, although it is essential to leave sufficient space around it to move freely. The materials are usually the same as in the rest of the furniture. On average, they can cost around 1,200 €, although that price can increase if water outlets or electrical outlets need to be installed and if they include any appliances.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ
How much does it cost on average to furnish a kitchen in Spain?

The average price to furnish a kitchen in Spain is around 5,000 €, though it can vary significantly depending on the materials and appliances you choose. With mid-range materials, the budget typically falls around 3,500 €, while high-quality materials and energy-efficient appliances can reach 10,000 € or more. This range includes cabinetry, countertop, basic installation, and essential appliances.

How long does it take to furnish a kitchen?

Installing a complete kitchen usually takes between 5 and 10 business days, depending on the project's complexity and whether plumbing or electrical work is needed. If structural renovations such as wall removal or layout changes are included, the timeline can extend to 2 to 4 weeks. It's recommended to allow an additional 3 to 5 days for final adjustments and appliance testing.

What is included in the budget for furnishing a kitchen?

A standard kitchen furnishing budget includes base and wall cabinets, countertop, sink, basic plumbing and drainage installation, and major appliances (oven, cooktop, and refrigerator). Depending on the provider, it may also include range hood installation, LED lighting, and small accessories like handles and hardware. It's important to request a detailed breakdown from the contractor to avoid unexpected additional costs.

How do I choose the best professional to furnish my kitchen?

Start by requesting detailed quotes from several local kitchen renovation companies, comparing prices, materials offered, and timelines. Verify that the professional is licensed and has liability insurance, and check references from previous projects or online reviews. It's advisable to choose someone who offers a work guarantee and post-installation technical support, and who clearly specifies what is and isn't included in the quote.

Do I need permits to furnish a kitchen?

For cabinetry and appliance installation without structural modifications, special permits are typically not required, though it's worth checking with your local municipality. However, if the renovation includes changes to plumbing, electrical, or gas systems, you must hire a licensed professional and register the installation with the relevant utility provider. We recommend having the contractor handle all necessary documentation, including gas and electrical installation certificates if required.
