Kitchen fitting in Castle Vale

What should you know before starting in Castle Vale?

Work like this in Castle Vale rarely needs planning permission, but parts of the job must meet Building Regulations — certified electrical work, ventilation or energy-efficiency standards, for example. Your quote shows how each part is signed off. If planning does come into it, say for a listed building, Birmingham City Council is the authority.

Checking a self-supplied kitchen against the order on delivery saves days of waiting for missing parts.
Moving a sink is simplest along an outside wall, where the waste can fall to a drain.
Quartz and other stone worktops are templated after the units are fitted, adding up to two weeks.

Which option fits your home?

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.

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.

Before you book in Castle Vale

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 Castle Vale do you work in?

We cover B35 and the streets around them. If you're on the edge of Castle Vale, neighbouring Castle Bromwich and Erdington 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.

Who approves kitchen fitting in Castle Vale?

You won't usually need planning permission, but the work must meet Building Regulations. Building control in Castle Vale is provided by Birmingham City Council or a registered building control approver, and some work is self-certified by registered installers.
