Cost-Effective Joinery Solutions
Renovating doesn’t always mean spending big. Here are some ways to keep your joinery project stylish and affordable:
- Melamine cabinetry: A durable, budget-friendly option available in a huge range of finishes. We love working with products from Bestwood and Melteca.
- Laminate benchtops: Today’s laminates are high-quality, low-maintenance, and a great alternative to engineered stone. Check out options from Laminex.
- Handle-free cabinetry: A clean, contemporary style that saves money on hardware.
We’re also happy to recommend solutions to work with your builder or project manager to suit your budget and timeline.
