Premium kitchen renovation with blue island, marble waterfall benchtop and arched windows by PMD Projects
Premium Kitchen Renovations · Melbourne

Kitchens built by the person who runs the whole job.

One qualified cabinetmaker builds your kitchen and manages every other trade, at one fixed price up front. One person accountable, from first measure to final clean.

A kitchen needs a cabinetmaker, a sparky, a plumber, a stonemason and a tiler. Most renos go wrong because no one owns all five. Paul does.

Why kitchen renos go wrong

It's not the kitchen that blows out. It's the managing.

Most kitchen reno horror stories aren't about bad tradies. They're about no one actually running the job. Five trades, all in the right order, and you're the one left chasing them, while the cheapest quote quietly turns into a pile of "extras" and the timeline slips.

  • The quote comes in low, then grows every time a trade finds something
  • Five subcontractors, none of whom answer for the other four
  • A three week job that quietly turns into three months
  • Nobody can tell you what is actually included until it is too late

The difference

One person builds it and runs it.

Paul is a qualified cabinetmaker. He builds your kitchen's cabinetry and joinery in-house, then sources and manages every other trade, the electrician, plumber, stonemason and tiler, and answers to you directly. Not an office manager. Not a call centre. The person building your kitchen is the person you deal with.

  • Paul does the measure, the drawings and the install himself
  • Every other trade is booked and managed by him, not by you
  • One fixed price agreed before demolition starts
  • You have his number for the whole job, not a project inbox

How it works

A kitchen reno that actually has someone running it.

01

The call

Paul calls you, talks through the room and what you want out of it, and gives you an honest range before anyone visits.

02

The measure

He comes out, measures properly, and looks at the things that move the price — plumbing runs, wall structure, access.

03

The drawings and the price

You get a layout and a fixed written price with the scope spelled out, so you can see exactly what is included.

04

The build

Every trade is scheduled by Paul in the right order. You are told what is happening each week rather than chasing it.

05

The handover

Final clean, a walk through together, and anything on the list fixed before he calls it finished.

Built properly

The parts you'll never see are the ones that matter most.

A kitchen is only as good as what's underneath the finishes: the cabinetry carcass, the joinery that still runs true in ten years, the plumbing and wiring behind the stone. Paul builds the cabinetry himself and uses licensed trades for every other stage, with Australian-made materials throughout.

  • Waterproofing done to standard and certified, not just sealed and covered
  • Cabinetry built to the room rather than cut down from flat pack
  • Substrate and falls corrected before a single tile goes on
  • Plumbing and electrical rough-in signed off before the walls close

Why PMD Projects

Why Melbourne homeowners choose PMD.

We had three quotes and Paul's was not the cheapest. It was the only one that told us what was actually included. The final invoice matched the quote exactly.

Rebecca and James, Hawthorn

He picked up that our floor was out by almost 20mm before he priced it. The other two would have found that halfway through and charged us for it.

Daniel M., Camberwell

One person to call for the whole job. After our last renovation, that was worth more than any discount we were offered.

Angela T., Kew

Common questions

Got questions? We've got answers.

Most of our kitchens land between $40,000 and $70,000 depending on size, cabinetry and whether the layout moves. Fill in the form and Paul will give you a range before anyone comes out.

Yes, once the scope is agreed. The only thing that changes it is you changing your mind, or something genuinely hidden behind a wall, which is flagged before any work continues.

It depends on the scope, but you get a realistic schedule up front rather than an optimistic one designed to win the job.

Where the job needs them, yes. Paul will tell you at the measure whether yours does, before you spend anything on drawings.

Absolutely. Plenty of clients supply their own. It gets factored into the scope so there are no surprises about who is buying what.

Paul does the cabinetry and install himself and manages every other trade. You are not handed to a site supervisor you have never met.

You call Paul, on the same number you have had the whole way through. Workmanship is backed and defects get fixed.

Paul calls you, talks through what you are after, and gives you an honest range. If it stacks up for both of us, he books a measure.
