Assess the existing kitchen before setting the scope
Every Koh Samui project starts with your floor plan, photos and how you cook. For kitchen renovation, we plan around salt air from the Gulf and the heavy rains between October and December. Materials reach the island by car ferry, so we plan deliveries and site access early.
Begin with the problems you want to solve: damaged cabinets, awkward storage, limited preparation space or an arrangement that no longer suits your household. Photograph the existing kitchen, measure the room and list appliances you hope to keep. Include your property location on Koh Samui and any access restrictions.
A new door front, a repaired cabinet and a full replacement are very different jobs. What can stay depends on its condition and whether it works with the changes you have in mind. Ask us which options make sense for your kitchen before you choose finishes. Changing the layout can also affect plumbing, electrics and worktop sizes.
Look at the whole renovation, including removal, disposal, cabinetry, worktops and making good the surrounding surfaces. Be clear about what is included and what needs other contractors. Our cabinet and cost guides will help you ask the right questions. Send us photos and a few lines about your plans, and we will suggest the best next step.
How much does a kitchen renovation cost on Koh Samui?
A kitchen renovation on Koh Samui typically costs ฿220,000–1,010,000, including removal of the old kitchen, new cabinets, worktop and installation. Replacing cabinets in the same layout sits at the lower end; moving the sink, hob or walls, new tiling and new electrical circuits move it up.
These prices already allow for ferry freight and team travel to the island.
Keep what works. Change what gets in the way.
Before anything is taken out, decide which appliances, service points and storage still work for you. Photograph the kitchen with the doors and drawers open. Tell us where it feels awkward to move and what you would like to keep. It helps to separate the new look you want from the practical changes the room needs.
