Focus on Kitchen Finishes

Modern home design will often feature the kitchen, as the heart of the home. As a custom builder, when we look at the kitchen finishes, it is more than just cabinetry, it takes into consideration every detail. Here we discuss aspects of your kitchen to consider when designing your new home.

Depending on the location of the kitchen, there may be a need to improve the natural lighting. Very popular currently is the installation of LED strip lighting under overhead cupboards, as well as skylights to provide that extra natural light.

Appliances available are as extensive and price ranged to suit every budget. Appliances included as a standard inclusion are your freestanding 90cm cooker, rangehood & dishwasher. At David Reid Homes we prefer SMEG appliances, due to their exceptional warranty and after sales service. We can customise your appliances to suit your functional & aesthetic needs, with an extensive range available. Just let us know what your preferences are, and we tailor the appliances to suit both your home and your budget. When selecting SMEG, as well as visiting local retailers, we can also arrange a personal meeting at the SMEG showroom in Brisbane.

Tapware and sink selections add another layer of design and personality to your new home. With finishes now spanning a range from chrome, black, gold, rose gold, and more, the selection combinations are almost limitless. We have standard range of kitchen fixtures in our standard inclusions as a starting point for you. When selecting plumbing fixtures, we will arrange a personalised meeting with our local Reece showroom to assist in making your selections.

Benchtops are a hot topic in the building industry at the moment, with manufactured stone being no longer available for installation as of 1 July 2024. The trend towards porcilain & natural stone is currently popular.

As custom builders, every detail of your home, and specifically in this article, your kitchen, is designed with you and your family in mind. We listen to your requests and offer solutions and suggestions to design & build the perfect home for you.
