Before your new kitchen in Erdington
Work like this in Erdington 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.

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.
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.

Units, worktops, appliances, sinks and taps each carry their own manufacturer's guarantee, and the terms are set out in your quote. Keep the paperwork we hand over, as appliance manufacturers often ask for proof of installation date. If something we've fitted isn't right, call us and we'll come back to look at it.
Does Birmingham 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 Erdington is provided by Birmingham City Council or a registered building control approver, and some work is self-certified by registered installers.
