Planning your new kitchen in Binley
This kind of work rarely needs planning permission, but it does have to comply with Building Regulations, and some parts must be certified by a registered installer or signed off by building control. In Binley, building control is provided by Coventry City Council or a registered building control approver (formerly an approved inspector).
- Gas hobs and cookers must be connected by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
- Quartz and other stone worktops are templated after the units are fitted, adding up to two weeks.
- Checking a self-supplied kitchen against the order on delivery saves days of waiting for missing parts.

Which option fits your home?
Layout change
Moving the sink, hob or a run of units means rerouting water, waste, gas and electrics before the new kitchen goes in. Sinks are easiest near an outside wall where the waste can fall to a drain, and hob positions depend on where the extractor can vent. Planned early, a layout change is straightforward; decided late, it's expensive.
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.

Questions about kitchen fitting in Binley
Can I buy my own kitchen and have you fit it?
Yes. Many customers buy from a trade counter, a retailer or online and ask us to fit it. We'd suggest letting us measure the room before you order, so the plan matches the real walls and services. On delivery we check everything against the order, because shortages are much easier to sort before the old kitchen comes out.
Which postcodes in Binley do you work in?
We cover CV3 and the streets around them. If you're on the edge of Binley, neighbouring Wyken and Walsgrave are covered too.
How should I prepare for the kitchen fitters?
Empty all cupboards and drawers, clear the worktops and move the fridge contents somewhere else. Set up a temporary kitchen in another room with a kettle, microwave and a washing-up bowl. Make sure there's a clear route from the front door to the kitchen, and tell us about pets, parking and working hours that suit your household.
Does Coventry City Council need to approve my new kitchen?
You won't usually need planning permission, but the work must meet Building Regulations. Building control in Binley is provided by Coventry City Council or a registered building control approver, and some work is self-certified by registered installers.
