Refresh, don’t remodel
You might not need a whole new kitchen.
Plenty of Gold Coast kitchens have a perfectly good layout and benchtop hiding behind tired doors. Ripping it all out costs a fortune. Darren’s speciality is the other option: new doors, drawers and cupboards built to fit what you already have, plus smarter storage in the spots that never worked.
That’s exactly how one customer found him. Several Gold Coast kitchen renovation companies pointed her his way when she was torn between a full remodel and a cosmetic update to her 15-year-old kitchen.
“He completely understood my vision, and gave me my absolute happy kitchen in the end!”
The work
Before and after, straight from customers’ phones.
No staged shoots. These are the photos customers posted with their reviews once Darren had finished.
Same kitchen, new face
Layout and benchtop kept, drawers and cupboards refreshed. A fraction of the cost and mess of a full remodel.

Doors, splashbacks and benchtops
The quickest way to bring a dated kitchen back to life. One customer’s 80s kitchen was turned around with new doors, splashback and benchtop.

Shelving, spare doors and supply-only
Small built-ins and shelving, replacement doors (two water-damaged doors were made while one customer waited), and cabinetry or edging cut to size if you want to fit it yourself.
As mentioned by Jules M, Caitlin Quarmby, Margaret & Garry Robinson
The workshop
Made on Manufacturer Drive, not pulled out of a flat pack.
ASAP Installations works out of its own workshop in the Molendinar industrial estate. Because Darren makes the cabinetry himself, he can size it to your room, fix a problem piece fast, and turn small jobs around quickly.
From scratch
“Builds his own cabinetry from scratch.” Colin Price
10 days
Aleesha’s doors and cabinets were delivered within 10 days, even mid warehouse move.
Same day
Two water-damaged doors for Jules, made while she waited.
Small idea, big difference
A home for the toaster, the kettle and the coffee machine.
Part of the job is seeing what a kitchen could do better. For Maine, that meant using the dead space around the fridge and turning awkward, half-useful cupboards into proper storage, finished off with an appliance cupboard so the benchtop stays clear.
“He even built me a fantastic, clever space to hide away my small kitchen appliances!”
How a job goes
Straightforward, and you hear from him the whole way.
01
A quick quote
Ring Darren and he gets back to you. One customer had tried a few tradies before him: “He communicated immediately, gave a quote and got to work.”
02
Ideas, then a plan
He’ll suggest ways to use dead space and fix awkward cupboards, and he works within your budget. Change your mind along the way and he rolls with it.
03
Built in the workshop
Your cabinetry is made in Molendinar, and he keeps you updated every step of the way.
04
Fitted and aligned
Installed with real attention to detail, every door properly aligned. Need a plumber for the taps? He can organise that too.

Kitchen refresh
“Darren Borg came highly recommended by several Gold Coast kitchen renovation companies when I was on the fence about doing a full remodel versus just making cosmetic updates to my 15-year-old kitchen. Since I already loved our layout and benchtop, I only wanted to refresh the drawers and cupboards. Darren’s company, ASAP Installations, was the perfect fit! He brought so many brilliant ideas to the table, maximising dead space like the area the fridge and turning awkward, semi functional cupboards into seamless, highly functional storage. He even built me a fantastic, clever space to hide away my small kitchen appliances! I am incredibly grateful for his top-tier craftsmanship and his amazing patience as I navigated through different options. He completely understood my vision, and gave me my absolute happy kitchen in the end! I cannot recommend Darren enough-he is a genuine, honest and great bloke and an utmost professional.”

Laundry
“I’m over the moon with my new laundry completed by Darren who knows his stuff. He also organised an excellent plumber to delete some taps and install new ones under the cabinetry. He turned up when he said he would and was so accomodating with my last minute changes. His price was excellent. Can’t recommend him enough.”

80s kitchen update

Darren knows his stuff and seamlessly updated our kitchen doors, splash back and bench top to bring a dated 80's kitchen back life. If you are looking for a business that is willing to work within your budget, give you great ideas and is easy to communicate with have no hesitations in contacting Darren at ASAP Installations.”
