Kitchen renovation in Namur

Styles and trends suited to Namur architecture

• Sober contemporary: smooth facades, integrated handles, mineral tones, full-height backsplash.
• Natural warmth: wood/light wood, stone or compact surfaces, highlighting light.
• Revisited classic: frames, handles, subway tile backsplash, brass/black accents. 

We ensure coherence with your existing floors, your frames, and the colors of the living room.

Specific constraints in apartments 

• Authorization if modifying the facade (visible extraction, frames), construction hours, protection of common areas (elevator, hallways), management of deliveries and debris.
• Acoustics: resilient underlays, anti-vibration pads under appliances, quiet hood.

The advantages of Avenir Rénovations 

• A single point of contact for the entire kitchen: networks, furniture, appliances, finishes.

Local procedures, energy performance, and assistance

• Urban planning: the interior renovation of a kitchen generally does not require a permit; a declaration may be required if the facade/frame is modified (visible hood exit).
• Energy performance: a well-ventilated and lit kitchen, with efficient appliances, contributes to comfort and sobriety.
• Renovation journey: if the kitchen is part of a broader energy project (ventilation, frames, insulation), we will indicate the technical documents to keep (detailed invoices, product sheets, photos).

FAQ – Kitchen Renovation 

Open or closed kitchen: what to choose?

Open, it visually enlarges the space and promotes conviviality. It requires acoustic treatment and an effective hood to control odors and steam. Closed, it isolates noise and allows for a distinct style without impacting the living area. We assess your uses (family, remote work, entertaining), the structure (load-bearing wall to open?), ventilation, and light to recommend the best option.

Which facades to choose: laminate, lacquered, wood, melamine?

Laminate offers an excellent value for money and good durability. Melamine is economical and improving in durability. Lacquered is very aesthetic but more sensitive to micro-scratches: ideal if you are careful. Wood brings warmth and character; it requires maintenance (oils/varnishes) depending on usage. We present several ranges to compare appearance, durability, and budget.

How to properly light a kitchen?

Layer three levels: general (ceiling), functional (under-cabinets/worktop), and ambient (LED strips, niches). We size the lighting to avoid shadows on the worktop and integrate dimmers to modulate the atmosphere. Properly placed outlets enhance usability comfort.

External vent hood or activated charcoal?

The external vent is the most effective: it truly removes steam and odors. In an apartment or if the facade does not allow it, recirculation with filters (grease + charcoal) is a good alternative, provided you replace the filters as recommended. We check the sealing of the ducts and the power suitable for the room volume.

How long does a kitchen renovation take?

For a standard kitchen (removal, networks, floors/walls, installation of furniture + countertop, splashbacks, appliances), expect 2 to 3 weeks excluding custom stone/ceramic (shaping time). With load-bearing opening or heavy reorganization of networks, the timeline extends. We provide a phased schedule with clear milestones.
