Does Kodarch replace the kitchen designer's software?

No. Kodarch helps frame the project (indicative budget + 2D plan) before or alongside the manufacturer quote. Final pricing and ordering stay with the professional.

Can I estimate only part of the works?

Yes. In the calculator, select only the relevant items (e.g. flooring and painting) for a range that matches your scope.

Are measurements usable for a quote?

They help prepare a more accurate quote, but remain indicative until validated on site by a professional.

Can two people work on the same project?

Yes. After saving (account), you can share the plan to decide together and pass it on to tradespeople.

Do I need an account to start?

No to try the calculator and a first plan. An account is useful to save and resume later.

Kitchen renovation: layout plan and budget

Kitchen due for a refresh? Estimate painting, flooring, electrics and equipment (cabinets, worktop), then test the layout on a clear plan before consulting a kitchen designer or tradesperson. Kodarch helps you decide as a couple and arrive at meetings with a shared reference.

Indicative budget by item (floor, walls, electrics, kitchen packs)

How it works

1
Price the project
Choose kitchen type, area and finish. Select items (painting, flooring, electrics, packs) for a realistic VAT-inclusive range.
2
Draw the room
Create the 2D plan: walls, doors, windows. Place base/wall units, island or appliances to check clearances.
3
Try variants
Compare several layouts without starting over. Adjust dimensions and circulation before locking a design.
4
Share the file
Export a dimensioned PDF or share the project to get more accurate quotes from a kitchen designer or tradesperson.

Concrete scenarios

Room-by-room refresh
You change flooring and paint first, cabinets later: estimate items separately and visualise the freed-up space.
Before the kitchen designer visit
You arrive with a dimensioned plan and a budget range: fewer back-and-forths and misunderstandings about constraints.
Testing a central island
You are unsure about an island: place it on the plan, check circulation and door swings before buying.
