Modular kitchen cost in Vandalur
Kitchens in Vandalur's independent houses often look out onto a backyard or garden, and apartment kitchens face open plots and trees. That greenery is part of the appeal, but it also brings insects, dust and termites to the door, so a well-built kitchen here is one that is properly sealed as well as well planned.

Planning interiors in Vandalur
A green southern suburb near the zoo and the outer ring road, with independent houses and growing apartment projects.
- Kitchens near gardens and open plots in Vandalur benefit from closed carcass backs, sealed edges and tight-fitting shutters that keep insects out of food storage.
- Low humidity means only the sink base and the wall next to it truly need BWP plywood; dry wall units can use a standard grade, saving some cost.
- Termite treatment of the kitchen walls and floor before installation is a sensible step in homes close to greenery.
- Young families often prefer easy-clean laminate shutters and rounded counter edges in the kitchen, where children tend to gather.

How do you keep insects out of cabinets?
With closed carcass backs, edge banding, well-fitted shutters and sealing gaps at the countertop. These details matter more in homes near greenery.
