The kitchen
Rockhampton
talks about.
Bespoke kitchens drawn to your room and delivered assembled — doors hung, hardware fitted, nothing to build on the floor — with a free 3D design and a fixed price that does not move.
Why Bilt & Co
You will open these
drawers 40,000 times.
A kitchen is the most-touched thing you will ever buy. It should feel expensive every morning — not just in the photos taken the week it was finished.
So we specify to a standard, not to a price. Moisture-resistant carcasses because this is Central Queensland. Blum hardware with a lifetime mechanical warranty. Laser-bonded edges that will not lift in a Rockhampton February. Then we install it ourselves and put our name on it.

Free 3D design, full material board and a fixed quote — worth $800.
We only take on a fixed number of new designs each month, because the same person who draws your kitchen also builds it. When the month is booked, it is booked.
- A measured 3D render of your actual room, not a catalogue page

Three collections
Pick your level.
We draw the rest.
Every kitchen is designed from a blank page for your room. The collections simply set the level of material and hand-work — and the honest starting price for each.
From $15,000
The Essence Collection
Handleless, quiet, exact. Soft-matte doors on Blum soft-close runners with a stone benchtop. Our entry to bespoke, drawn to your room rather than picked from a catalogue.

From $26,000
The Maison Collection
What most Rockhampton families build. Timber veneer against a full-height stone splashback, a waterfall island, integrated lighting and a butler’s pantry behind a hidden door.

From $47,000
The Atelier Collection
No constraints. Book-matched slabs, curved and fluted cabinetry, solid brass, wine walls and a pantry built like a jewellery box. One project at a time.

Timber, travertine
and morning light.
Every surface here was drawn for one room, specified to the millimetre and installed by the people who drew it.
Compare honestly
Why two quotes for the
same kitchen differ by $20,000.
It is rarely the design. It is these seven lines. Ask every company you speak to in Rockhampton to answer them in writing — including us.
| What you are actually buying | Bilt & Co | Custom cabinetmaker | Kitchen retailer or franchise |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who designs it | The person who measured your room | Usually the maker, in person | A salesperson, then a designer elsewhere |
| Carcass board | 18mm moisture-resistant | Typically 18mm, varies by maker | 16–18mm, varies by range |
| Hardware | Blum, lifetime warranty | Usually Blum or Hettich | Depends on the range you pick |
| Lead time | 8–12 weeks | 12–20 weeks, often longer | 10–16 weeks |
| Quote | Fixed and itemised before you start | Often estimated, refined later | Fixed, but showroom cost is in it |
| Who installs it | Our own employed team | Usually the maker | Commonly subcontracted |
| Typical 7m kitchen | $26,000 – $42,000 | $35,000 – $60,000 | $30,000 – $55,000 |
The two right-hand columns describe common market practice in Central Queensland, not any particular business, and good cabinetmakers beat these figures regularly. Always get the specification in writing before you compare prices.
Risk, removed
Five promises we
put in the contract.
A kitchen is one of the largest cheques most households ever write to a small business. These are the five things that go wrong most often — so these are the five things we guarantee.
Get my free quoteThe price does not move
Once your design is signed off, the quote is fixed. We have never issued a surprise variation for our own scope of works. If we get a measurement wrong, we wear it.
Assembled before it arrives
Carcasses built square, Blum hardware fitted, doors hung and adjusted to even gaps. On site it is fitted, not built — and Blum’s lifetime mechanical warranty sits on every hinge and runner.
One team, drawing to handover
We specify your cabinetry to the millimetre, take delivery of it and install it ourselves. No subcontracted installers — the people in your house are on our payroll and their name is on the job.
On the day we said
A written site programme before demolition, and a $200-a-day credit back to you for every working day we run past our own completion date.
Your drawings are yours
If our quote does not work for you, you keep the 3D design and the measured drawings of your own room. No charge, no hard feelings.
How it works
Five steps,
no surprises.
The biggest complaint about renovations is not cost — it is not knowing what happens next, or who to call. Here is exactly what happens next.
Free design consultation
Ninety minutes at your kitchen table. We measure, photograph and listen — then tell you honestly what your budget buys in 2026.
3D design & selections
A render of your actual room. We bring the doors, the stone offcuts and the handles to you, so you see them in your own light before anything is locked in.
Your fixed quote
One document, every line itemised, signed and fixed. Revisions are free until you are happy. Valid 90 days.
Made to your millimetres
Your cabinetry is manufactured to our specification and your measurements. It arrives assembled with doors hung and adjusted, or flat packed and labelled if you would rather build it — your call, both on the quote.
Installed & handed over
Seven to ten working days with one team and a written programme. Cleaned, adjusted, photographed and handed over with the drawings and paperwork.

In their words
The people who already
cook in one.
“For what we paid compared to what similar kitchens were costing elsewhere, we’re extremely happy with it.”
Rockhampton
“Could not be happier with our kitchen. The funny thing is, pretty much everyone who’s come over since we installed it has asked who did our kitchen and assumed we spent a lot more than we actually did.”
Gladstone
“Once we saw it in person, it was a pretty easy decision. It looked even better than we expected.”

Where we work
From the Fitzroy to the Capricorn Coast — no travel loading.
Our workshop and our installers are both local, so a Yeppoon kitchen costs exactly what a Rockhampton kitchen costs.
Frequently asked
Questions, answered honestly
If your question is not here, call the studio. We would rather talk it through than have you guess.
Ask us directly →How much does a new kitchen cost in Rockhampton?
Most Bilt & Co kitchens land between $15,000 and $51,000 supplied and installed. A compact handleless galley starts around $15,000; a typical Rockhampton family kitchen with a stone island and butler’s pantry sits between $26,000 and $35,000; fully bespoke work begins at $47,000. Our published investment guide breaks down every band line by line, and the estimator gives you a range in about thirty seconds.
Is the free design really free?
Yes. The measure, the 3D render, the material board and the fixed quote cost you nothing and carry no obligation. If our number does not work for you, you keep the drawings of your own room. We can afford to do this because we carry no showroom and no franchise fee — that overhead goes into your kitchen instead.
How long does a kitchen take?
Eight to twelve weeks from signed quote to handover. Design and documentation takes two to three weeks, manufacture to your specification four to six, and installation is typically seven to ten working days on site.
Who makes the cabinetry?
It is manufactured to our specification and your measurements by the maker we have chosen and stay with, and delivered assembled or flat packed, whichever you order. We draw it, we specify every carcass, hinge and runner, we check each unit before it goes in, and we install it with our own team. If something is wrong, it is ours to fix and there is nobody for us to point at.
Do you service Yeppoon and the Capricorn Coast?
Yes — Yeppoon, Emu Park, Gracemere, Mount Morgan and the wider Capricorn Coast are inside our standard service area at no travel loading. We also work through Gladstone, Emerald and Blackwater on larger projects.
Can I use my own builder and trades?
Absolutely. We work alongside your trades weekly and can hand them a full set of service drawings, or we can coordinate the whole renovation as a single point of contact. Both are priced transparently so you can choose on merit.
Delivered assembled
The assembly is done
before it arrives.
Carcasses built square on a bench, Blum hardware fitted, doors hung and adjusted to even gaps. On site you are fixing finished cabinets to a wall, not building them on the floor. Our own team fits it in Central Queensland; your installer fits it anywhere else in Australia. Prefer to build it yourself? The same kitchen ships flat pack.
Long island, one delivery
Appliance garage, hardware fitted before delivery
Full-height joinery, fitted in days
