Options to consider in Studley

Kitchen with a new open-plan layout

When a kitchen goes in alongside a knock-through or extension, the steel position, lighting, sockets and radiators are planned around the kitchen design. Fitting the kitchen last, after plastering and screeding are finished and dry, protects the new units and means the flooring can run through both rooms without joins.

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.

Kitchen fitting in Studley: common questions

How long will we be without a kitchen?

A typical kitchen takes 5–10 working days from strip-out to handover. Stone worktops add a gap of up to two weeks between templating and fitting, but temporary tops keep the sink and hob usable meanwhile. We give you the date the old kitchen comes out well in advance, so you can set up a kettle, microwave and washing-up space elsewhere.
