The whole scope sits inside one contract with one project manager. ### Who it's for Homeowners upgrading a dated kitchen, families combining a kitchen with a rear extension to create an open-plan living space, and landlords or investors preparing a property for sale or a higher rental value. ### When you need it Most clients call when their current kitchen is 15+ years old, cabinets are failing at hinge or drawer level, worktops are damaged, appliances are on their last legs, or a house move / extension has changed the room's layout entirely. ### Why professional matters A kitchen is where mm-tolerances matter most. Worktop templates only work if cabinet runs are dead level, appliances only sit flush if aperture cuts are exact, and gas / water / electrical services have to land in the right place first-time, pulling out a run of cabinets to move a socket costs days. The cost of getting it wrong ## What goes wrong when a kitchen is fit on the cheap The kitchen is the most complex room in the house to install. Cheap installs cut corners on the sequence, and every one of those corners costs the owner later. If ignored - Worktop template failures Cabinets that aren't dead level produce a template the stonemason can't work from. That means a re-template, a re-cut, and 2-3 weeks of extra lead time on a kitchen you can't cook in. - Appliance apertures cut wrong An oven or hob housing cut a few mm out means the appliance doesn't sit flush, and once the worktop is on, it's a strip-out to correct. - Gas / electric in wrong locations Sockets, gas points and waste that don't land where the cabinets expect them mean holes cut through backs, dropped drawer runners, or worse, cabinets that never quite close. - Water damage from bad seals Poor sealing around sinks and hobs is the #1 killer of laminate and MDF cabinetry. You get swelling at the front edge of the sink base inside 12 months. Common mistakes - Buying the kitchen before the site survey Ordering cabinets and appliances before a fitter has surveyed the room is how people end up with 60mm too much cabinet or a fridge that doesn't fit through the door. - Choosing stone before templating Lead times on quartz and granite worktops run 2-4 weeks from template. Choose late and the whole schedule slips. - Mixing installers and suppliers When the kitchen supplier and the installer are different companies, mis-orders become nobody's problem.

Materials & methods ## Materials, methods & variations we install London kitchens run from a compact galley in a mansion-block flat to a 6m island in an open-plan extension. Here's what we work with. ### Materials we work with - Rigid and flat-pack cabinetry (Howdens, Wren, Magnet, Kutchenhaus and bespoke joinery) - Quartz, granite, sintered stone (Dekton, Neolith) and solid timber worktops - Full-height splashbacks in stone, glass and porcelain - Integrated and freestanding appliances (Bosch, Neff, Siemens, Miele, Wolf, Sub-Zero) - Undermount, inset and Belfast sinks with quooker-style boiling taps - LVT, engineered timber and porcelain tile flooring - Under-cabinet LED, plinth lighting and pendant runs over islands ### Methods & standards - Cabinets set on adjustable legs and shimmed dead level before templating - Waste and water first-fixed to cabinet-back positions, not floor centres - Gas relocation and commissioning by a Gas Safe registered engineer - Notifiable electrics installed to BS 7671 and Part P certified - Silicone seals around sinks and hobs renewed as good practice at year 5 ### Variations of this service Galley kitchen refit Compact, high-storage layouts for terraced houses and mansion-block flats.

Handleless / slab-front kitchens J-pull and true handleless designs where tolerances between doors and worktops matter most.

Still not sure? Call Jay directly on 07460 046234. How much does a new kitchen cost in London?Every kitchen is quoted on a fixed-price basis after a free survey. Cabinet spec, stone choice and appliance level are the three biggest variables, so we never quote from a spec sheet alone. You'll have an itemised written quote back inside the same week. How long does a kitchen installation take?A standard kitchen fit runs 3-4 weeks on site, mostly driven by stone worktop lead times (typically 2-3 weeks from template). We agree the full programme in writing before we start. Can you supply the kitchen or should I buy it?Either works. We install kitchens the client has bought directly from Howdens, Wren, Magnet, Kutchenhaus and independent designers, and we also project-manage supply through our own trade accounts if you'd rather have it all on one invoice. Do you handle gas and electrics?Yes. Gas work is carried out by our Gas Safe registered engineer; notifiable electrics are installed and Part P certified through our NICEIC-registered partners. What guarantee do you offer on kitchen installations?Every kitchen install carries our 12-month workmanship guarantee in writing. Appliance and cabinet warranties from the manufacturer sit on top of that. Can you fit a kitchen as part of a rear extension?Yes, most of our kitchen installs are part of a wider extension or open-plan project. The extension, kitchen and any structural work are managed under one contract with one programme. Do I need building control sign-off?For a like-for-like refit, usually not. For new gas points, notifiable electrics, or a kitchen forming part of an extension, yes, we arrange sign-off as part of the job. Which areas of London do you cover?We work throughout North and West London, including St John's Wood, Paddington, Kensington, Bayswater, Regents Park, Hampstead, Hammersmith, Chiswick and Ealing Broadway. How long should a well-fitted kitchen last?A well-installed kitchen with quality cabinetry and stone worktops should last 15-20 years easily. Doors and drawer runners are the first components to wear; hinges and runners are usually replaceable in-situ. Book your free survey ## Ready to price your kitchen installationthe honest way?
