KITCHEN ESTIMATE CALCULATOR
Get a Starting Kitchen Estimate
Use The ARK Kitchen Edit to enter your kitchen layout, approximate measurements, appliances, storage needs and finish direction, then receive an early starting estimate for planning.
This is not a formal quote, final design or confirmed scope. It is an early estimate to help you understand the likely project range before speaking with ARK.

Two Project Scopes
What is the difference between Kitchen Cabinets & Benchtop and Kitchen Renovation?
The ARK Kitchen Edit supports two different project scopes. Both start with the kitchen itself, but they differ in how much surrounding site and trade work ARK is responsible for coordinating.
For both project types, the Formal Quote and accepted project scope determine the final inclusions, exclusions and ARK responsibilities.
What the Kitchen Estimate Calculator Looks At ?
The calculator considers your project starting point, kitchen layout, approximate cabinet runs and wall measurements, appliance positions, upper storage, drawers, tall units, benchtop direction, cabinet finish preferences, lighting and selected cabinet features.
-
Kitchen layout and approximate size: Straight, galley, L-shape, U-shape, G-shape, island and peninsula directions can be entered with approximate measurements.
-
Appliances and storage: The estimate considers key appliances, drawers, tall units, upper storage and selected cabinet features.
-
Finishes and benchtop direction: Cabinet finish, benchtop look, lighting and selected visual preferences are included in the early estimate.
What You Receive From The ARK Kitchen Edit ?
After completing the guided questions, you receive a starting kitchen estimate, an indicative project schedule and a summary of the information entered.
-
Starting estimate: An early kitchen price range for planning before a formal quote.
-
Indicative schedule: A planning-stage schedule based on the selected project direction and information entered.
-
Submission summary: A record of your selected options, measurements, photos and project information for ARK review.

Starting Estimate vs Formal Quote
The Starting Estimate is an early planning range produced from the information entered into The ARK Kitchen Edit. It is not a confirmed price, accepted quote, final scope or contract. A formal quote is prepared separately after ARK has reviewed the project information, measurements, selections and relevant site details.
