People often say “Let’s move the sink over there” like it’s just rearranging furniture. In reality, moving plumbing or gas lines is one of the costliest renovation changes.
When you change the sink or cooker location, you’re changing:
water supply lines
drainage slope
gas piping or electrical capacity
countertop cutouts
wall tiling and sealing
This means extra labor and more risk of future leaks if not done well. Sometimes it’s smarter to keep major elements in place and redesign around them.
A beautiful kitchen is not about dramatic layout changes — it’s about smart improvements you can maintain long-term.
