Options to consider in Balsall Common

Supply and fit

We measure, help you plan the layout, order the units, worktops and appliances, and fit everything. You get one price covering the kitchen and the work, with one firm responsible for both. It's the simplest route if you want somebody else to deal with deliveries, missing parts and making sure everything that arrives fits the room.

Fit-only for a kitchen you've bought

You buy from your chosen supplier and we fit it. Before ordering, we measure the room so the plan matches reality, including the positions of the window, boiler, soil pipe and radiators. On delivery we check the boxes against the order, so any shortages are chased with the supplier before fitting day.
