Kitchen fitting in Rugby

What should you know before starting in Rugby?

Live in a conservation area or a listed building in Rugby? Check with Rugby Borough Council before changing the outside of your home. Otherwise the main rules for your new kitchen are Building Regulations, and we'll explain at the survey which certificates you'll receive.

Quartz and other stone worktops are templated after the units are fitted, adding up to two weeks.
Adding sockets to an existing kitchen circuit isn't notifiable, as kitchens aren't classed as special locations.
Moving a sink is simplest along an outside wall, where the waste can fall to a drain.

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.

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.

What does your new kitchen cost in Rugby?

Expect to budget between £2,200 and £28,000 depending on size and specification in Rugby. Supply and fit of a mid-range 10–12 unit kitchen with laminate worktops in a three-bed semi: typically £10,500–£14,500.

We cover CV21 and the streets around them. If you're on the edge of Rugby, neighbouring Walsgrave and Binley 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.

Will I need permission from the council in Rugby?

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