i bought a house that come with kitchen cabinet.

i want to replace the wood for hob and sink to semen and tiles type...

and move the sink to left facing the windows....

my question, can i take off the kitchen cabinet and move to other position?

cement*

Is that the pic of your kitchen? It looks good condition lah. Anyway, you may be able to move, but there may be some damage, and also, now it is all chipboard carcass, if u start to do a cement counter, the measurement may run. The easiest is to replace with solid surface counter top.

if you going to do cement for your counter top, then your only doors can be use on it ( and also you need to let your contractor know that your door size) but carcase cant be use anymore.

if you going to change to solid surface or granite top, then just need to add another corner unit and continue with ur existing cabinet (if the size is fit)

intially i do not want to kacau the kitchen cabinet coz i plan to do wet kitchen at yard but it too small...

so think to replace the top counter (wood - light chocolate color in the pic) with something solid/semen type...don't know how to explain it....

y i want to move it? i think wanna put the sink at the corner facing the windows....and replace the current sink position with kitchen hood & hob...

not quite clear with your explaination especially "then your only doors can be use on it (and also you need to let your contractor know that your door size) but carcase can't be use anymore.

if i don't switch position for carcase but just change the wood top counter to solid surface/granite top and add corner unit, i still can use the existing carcase?

yes, u can use all the carcase if you just change to solid surface or granite.
but only the end unit u need to change to corner carcase because of the joining. if you just add another new cabinet beside, then the joining area will be very ugly.

cements top and used back the existing KC is not possible, coz after have the concrete top u just needs the frames and doors for cover up. but u can used back the existing carcass plus add up one more cabinets for the corner extensions (if can change the sink cabinet too) this method u can used granite,solid surface, quartz stone, marble or solid wood top without any problem ...... hope this will help

reminder: the doors colours will be different as u added a new cabinets.

no choice, so waste for the current kitchen cabinet...

for the corner extension...probably add the visible type cover/door at the bottom...just like the grey visible at the top kitchen cabinet...so it will look not so ugly...
