Modular kitchen cost in Sholinganallur
Kitchens in Sholinganallur's tower flats are usually compact parallel or L-shaped spaces with a small utility, built for couples who cook quickly before work and families who cook twice a day. With the coast close by, the kitchen is also where salt and steam test hinges and edges hardest, so material choice matters as much as layout here.

Planning interiors in Sholinganallur
A major OMR–ECR link junction with dense gated communities, tech parks and new high-rises.
- Salt air combined with cooking steam is hard on cheap hardware, and rusting hinges are one of the most common complaints in older OMR kitchens, which makes branded soft-close fittings a priority.
- Many builder kitchens in this area come with a granite slab already fixed, so the cabinet design has to work around existing sink and hob positions unless the owner chooses to change them.
- Ducting a chimney through the outer wall of a high-rise sometimes needs association approval, so confirming the exhaust route early prevents a late redesign.
- Compact kitchens here benefit most from tall pantry units and corner carousels, because wall length is limited and every running foot is already used.

Plan smarter
Five ways to keep your budget on track
- 01
Choose appliances before cabinets
Pick the hob, chimney, oven and fridge models first. Cabinet sizes, cut-outs and electrical points can then be planned around them precisely.
- 02
Use BWP plywood near the sink
Boiling water proof plywood holds up better under the sink and dishwasher area where leaks and humidity are constant.
- 03
Prefer drawers to hinged base units
Tandem drawers let you see and reach everything in a deep base cabinet. They cost more than shelves but are easier to use daily.
- 04
Plan sockets for every appliance
Mixer, microwave, water purifier and induction all need dedicated points. Mark them on the drawing so the electrician places them correctly.
- 05
Check the existing slab
If the builder slab is already in place, measure and photograph it for the designer. Changing it later adds cost and delays.

FAQ
Common cost questions
Still unsure? Our designers are happy to answer anything on a call.
Which shutter finish suits a coastal kitchen?
Laminate is durable and easy to clean, acrylic gives a glossy look, and PU offers a seamless finish at a higher cost. All work near the coast if edges are properly sealed.
Can I change the sink position?
Yes, but it involves plumbing and slab changes. In a new flat it is easier to do before the slab is fixed, so raise it with your designer early.
How much extra for a 3BHK kitchen?
A 3BHK kitchen here is approximately ₹69K – ₹1.3L in Basic, ₹83K – ₹1.5L in Premium and ₹97K – ₹1.8L in Ultra Premium, pre-GST, because of the longer running length.
Is a chimney necessary?
For Indian cooking, a chimney helps remove smoke and grease. Your designer will plan the duct route and confirm whether the building allows external venting.
Does the kitchen come with a warranty?
Elixir woodwork carries a 12-year warranty. Hardware warranties depend on the brand, and your designer will share the details with your quote.
