IKEA Kitchen in Melbourne
An IKEA kitchen is great value and a lot of work. The METOD system is hundreds of flat-pack cabinets that have to be assembled, levelled and joined dead straight, then fitted with fronts, benchtops, a splashback and appliances. IKEA supplies the boxes — an installer turns them into a finished kitchen that sits square and lasts.
Use the guided estimator to describe your kitchen — the run length, the layout, the benchtop you want and which appliances go in — and local installers send written quotes you can compare. Many manage the whole job: assembly, install, benchtop, and the licensed trades. No account, no showroom pressure, and a job page that keeps every quote in writing.
The plumbing for the sink and dishwasher and the electrical for the cooktop, oven and power all have to be done by licensed tradespeople in Victoria. Installers who quote those parts through Octacon Trades have had their licence details reviewed first, and verified tradies carry a licence badge on every quote — so you can see who is checked before you choose.

Common questions
IKEA Kitchen questions, answered straight
01How much does it cost to install an IKEA kitchen in Melbourne?
The cabinets are what you pay IKEA; the install is separate and depends on size, benchtop and how many appliances and services are involved. A small galley is a different job to a large U-shape with a stone benchtop and an island. Describe your kitchen in the estimator and installers price the real job — you compare written quotes side by side.
02Does the installer supply the kitchen or do I buy it from IKEA?
You order the kitchen from IKEA — most installers will check your IKEA plan first so the order is right — and they assemble and install it. Some also offer a measure-and-plan service before you order, which is worth it to avoid missing or wrong parts on the day.
03Can I use a stone benchtop with an IKEA kitchen?
Yes. IKEA’s own laminate and timber tops are the budget options, but many installers template and fit an engineered-stone benchtop onto METOD cabinets for a higher-end finish. Choose the benchtop in the estimator and the quote will reflect supply and installation.
04Who does the plumbing and electrical?
A licensed plumber connects the sink, tap and dishwasher; a licensed electrician wires the cooktop, oven and power. Many kitchen installers manage those trades for you as part of the job. On Octacon Trades those tradies are licence-checked before they can quote that work.
05Do you remove the old kitchen first?
Most installers can strip out and dispose of the old kitchen before fitting the new one — say so when you scope the job so it is included. If plumbing or electrical needs isolating or moving, flag it early so the right trades are booked in the right order.
