Options to consider in Heath Hayes

Laminate, wood or stone worktops

Laminate is affordable, cut and fitted on the day. Solid wood needs oiling but can be sanded back. Quartz and compact laminate are hard-wearing, but quartz is templated after the units are fitted and installed a week or two later, so you'll have a temporary top in between. The choice shapes the programme as well as the price.

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.

Before you book in Heath Hayes

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.
