Kitchen Demolition & Removal

Every kitchen renovation begins by getting the old kitchen out cleanly and completely. Strip It Out provides kitchen demolition and kitchen strip out services across the Gold Coast and Brisbane, removing cabinets, benchtops, splashbacks, appliances and flooring to hand your builder or cabinetmaker a clean, trade-ready space. Most kitchen strip outs are finished in a single day.

Part of our broader internal strip out and demolition services — see the hub page for the Queensland regulatory framework, process, cost factors and contractor vetting checklist.

We remove the full kitchen: overhead and base cabinetry, benchtops, sinks and tapware, splashbacks, and the flooring beneath. Appliances are carefully disconnected, with licensed electricians and plumbers coordinated so power, gas and water points are made safe before anything comes out. Where the renovation calls for it, we strip wall and ceiling linings, take splashback and wall tiles back to the substrate, and remove all debris as we go.

What affects the cost of a kitchen demolition

A kitchen strip out is quoted on the work and the access, not a flat rate. The main cost factors:

• The size of the kitchen and the amount of cabinetry and benchtop
• Whether splashback tiles and floor tiles are being removed
• The appliance and service disconnections required
• Whether a wall is coming out to open up the space

You receive a fixed-scope quote up front, so the price is locked in before we begin.

How long a kitchen demolition takes

Most kitchen strip outs are completed in a single day. Larger kitchens, or jobs that also involve tile removal, wall removal or flooring, may take a second day. We work to your cabinetmaker's or builder's start date so the new kitchen installation is never held up.

Kitchen demolition is rarely a stand-alone job. We handle kitchen-only strip outs, combined kitchen and bathroom demolition for whole-home renovations, open-plan conversions where a wall is removed with the old kitchen, and rental and investment property refreshes. For larger projects it folds into a full residential strip out.

Whether it is a compact unit kitchen or a large open-plan kitchen, our family-owned, fully licensed and insured team delivers the same tidy, trade-ready result. Strip It Out has handled kitchen demolitions across the Gold Coast and Brisbane for more than seven years. Call for a free, fixed-scope quote.
