Kitchen fitting in Walsgrave

Planning your new kitchen in Walsgrave

This kind of work rarely needs planning permission, but it does have to comply with Building Regulations, and some parts must be certified by a registered installer or signed off by building control. In Walsgrave, building control is provided by Coventry City Council or a registered building control approver (formerly an approved inspector).

Cooker hoods ducted to outside should extract at least 30 litres per second.
Adding sockets to an existing kitchen circuit isn't notifiable, as kitchens aren't classed as special locations.
Checking a self-supplied kitchen against the order on delivery saves days of waiting for missing parts.

Which option fits your home?

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.

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.

Your questions answered

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.
