Chetpet · Modular kitchen
Modular kitchen cost in Chetpet
Kitchens in Chetpet homes are usually spacious, and many owners treat them as part of the home's finish rather than a back-of-house room. PU shutters, quartz counters and handle-less profiles are common choices, while families who cook heavily still want a separate wet area or utility to keep the main kitchen tidy.

Planning interiors in Chetpet
A green, low-density central neighbourhood around the Chetpet lake, with spacious older homes and boutique premium apartments.
- Larger Chetpet kitchens often have room for an L-shaped or U-shaped layout and sometimes a breakfast counter, which increases running length and cost.
- Many homes here split cooking into a show kitchen and a working utility or wet kitchen, each with its own cabinets and appliances.
- PU and acrylic shutters are popular because they suit the understated, polished look owners prefer, and they are a large part of why Ultra Premium is chosen.
- Low moisture risk helps premium finishes last, though BWP plywood is still used under the sink and in the wet area.
Estimates cover design, modular carpentry, installation and a 12-year woodwork warranty. Civil, electrical, painting, appliances and countertops are usually quoted separately. See full inclusions & specifications

Plan smarter
Five ways to keep your budget on track
- 01
Decide if you need a wet kitchen
If you cook elaborate meals often, a separate wet area keeps the main kitchen clean. Plan both together for consistent finishes.
- 02
Pick the countertop with the shutters
Quartz and granite colours should be chosen alongside PU or acrylic samples so the kitchen looks coordinated.
- 03
Use handle-less profiles carefully
Gola or handle-less profiles look clean but need correct hardware. Ask the designer to show how they open daily.
- 04
Plan appliance garages
Hide the mixer, toaster and coffee machine in tall units with pocket shutters so the counter stays clear.
- 05
Locate the chimney duct early
Confirm the chimney duct route before production, especially in older homes where a new wall opening may be needed.

FAQ
Common cost questions
Still unsure? Our designers are happy to answer anything on a call.
Is PU a good choice for a kitchen?
PU gives a smooth, seamless finish and suits Chetpet's understated style. It needs gentle cleaning and is best used with good ventilation and a proper chimney.
Can I have a breakfast counter?
Many Chetpet kitchens are large enough for a counter. The designer will check clearances so it does not block movement or appliance doors.
What is the difference between a show and wet kitchen?
A show kitchen is the clean, visible kitchen for light cooking, while a wet kitchen or utility handles heavy cooking and washing. Both need planned storage.
Do these prices include appliances?
No. The ranges cover cabinets, shutters, hardware and related work, pre-GST. Appliances are selected separately and their sizes inform the design.
How long until my kitchen is ready?
Production typically takes 15–20 working days after design approval, followed by a few days of installation on site.
