From compact HDB kitchens to spacious condo cooking spaces, Renobros Interior designs and builds kitchens that are beautiful, functional, and built to last. Custom cabinetry, premium countertops, and smart layouts tailored to how you cook and live.
The kitchen is one of the most complex rooms to renovate because it combines plumbing, electrical, ventilation, and heavy-use surfaces in a relatively compact space. A well-planned kitchen renovation addresses both practical function and visual appeal, ensuring the room works as hard as you need it to while looking the way you want it to.
At Renobros Interior, our kitchen renovation service covers every aspect of the transformation. Whether you are upgrading an ageing kitchen or designing one from scratch in a new BTO flat, we handle the full scope, from layout planning and material selection through to installation and finishing.
Every kitchen project starts with a detailed design phase. We measure, plan, and visualise your new kitchen in 3D before any work begins.
Our carpentry is built in our own factory, giving us full control over quality, dimensions, and delivery timelines.
Pull-out drawers, corner carousels, tall units, and integrated organisers ensure every centimetre of kitchen space is usable.
One of the most important decisions in a Singapore kitchen renovation is whether to opt for a wet kitchen, dry kitchen, or the increasingly popular wet-and-dry combination. Your cooking habits and lifestyle should drive this choice.
A wet kitchen is the traditional enclosed cooking area designed for heavy-duty cooking. It contains the stove, hood, sink, and is typically fitted with easy-to-clean surfaces like tiles on walls and floors. The enclosed design contains cooking fumes, grease splatter, and strong odours, making it ideal for homeowners who cook frequently with intense heat, wok frying, or strong spices. In HDB flats, the original kitchen layout is typically a wet kitchen configuration.
A dry kitchen is an open or semi-open area typically used for light food preparation, serving, and storage. It often faces the dining or living area and serves as a social hub. Dry kitchens are finished with more decorative materials since they are visible from the main living space. They work well for homeowners who eat out frequently, prefer light cooking, or want a more open floor plan.
The combination layout gives you the best of both worlds. The wet kitchen handles heavy cooking behind a partition or glass divider, while the dry kitchen provides a clean, open counter space for preparation and socialising. This configuration is especially popular in larger HDB flats and condos where there is enough floor area to accommodate both zones.
Cabinets are the backbone of any kitchen. They define the storage capacity, visual style, and durability of the space. Choosing the right cabinet material and configuration is essential for a kitchen that performs well over the long term.
The internal structure of your cabinets, known as the carcass, is typically built from plywood or particle board. Marine plywood is the preferred choice for Singapore kitchens due to its superior moisture resistance, which is critical in our humid climate. While particle board is more affordable, it is more susceptible to swelling when exposed to water, making it a less durable option for areas near the sink.
The most popular and cost-effective option. Available in hundreds of colours and textures including wood grain, solid colours, and stone effects. Durable, easy to clean, and resistant to scratches.
High-gloss finish that creates a sleek, modern look. More expensive than laminate but offers a premium reflective surface. Requires careful handling as it can show fingerprints and fine scratches.
A thin layer of natural wood over the carcass provides an authentic timber look. Ideal for Scandinavian or Japandi kitchen styles. Requires more maintenance than laminate to keep looking its best.
Offers a smooth, seamless finish in any custom colour. Popular for contemporary and minimalist kitchens. Multiple coats ensure durability, though touch-ups may be needed over time.
Your kitchen countertop needs to withstand daily use, resist heat and stains, and complement the overall design. Here is a comparison of the most popular countertop materials used in Singapore kitchens.
| Material | Durability | Maintenance | Price Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quartz | Excellent - scratch and stain resistant | Low - no sealing required | $80 - $200 per sqft |
| Solid Surface | Good - seamless joints, repairable | Low - easy to clean and restore | $40 - $100 per sqft |
| Sintered Stone | Excellent - heat and UV resistant | Very low - non-porous surface | $100 - $300 per sqft |
| Natural Granite | Very good - heat resistant | Medium - requires periodic sealing | $60 - $150 per sqft |
| Marble | Moderate - prone to staining and etching | High - needs regular sealing | $80 - $250 per sqft |
We help you choose the right countertop based on your cooking habits, aesthetic preferences, and budget. Our team handles precise templating and professional installation to ensure a perfect fit with minimal seams.
An efficient kitchen layout minimises unnecessary movement between the sink, stove, and refrigerator. This concept, often called the kitchen work triangle, is the foundation of good kitchen design. Here are the most common layouts we work with in Singapore homes.
The most common layout in HDB flats, the L-shaped kitchen uses two adjacent walls to create an efficient work triangle. This configuration provides ample counter space and can accommodate a small dining area or additional storage along the open side.
Using three walls, the U-shaped layout maximises storage and counter space. It works well in larger kitchens and provides a natural separation between the cooking area and the rest of the home. This layout is ideal for homeowners who need extensive storage or have multiple cooks working simultaneously.
A galley layout features two parallel rows of cabinets and counters. While compact, it is extremely efficient for a single cook as everything is within arm's reach. Galley kitchens are common in older HDB flats and studio apartments.
Adding a kitchen island creates additional workspace, storage, and a casual dining spot. Islands work best in open-concept layouts with sufficient floor area. In Singapore condos with open kitchens, an island often serves as the boundary between the kitchen and living areas.
Our designers evaluate your floor plan, cooking habits, and storage needs to recommend the layout that makes the most sense for your home. We also incorporate ergonomic considerations such as counter heights, pull-out systems, and accessible storage for a kitchen that is comfortable to use daily.
