Choices to weigh up in Worcester

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.

How do I book a survey in Worcester?

Send the form on this page, use the guide-price tool or call 0800 088 6248 free. We'll ask a few questions about your new kitchen and arrange a time to visit.

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.

Who approves kitchen fitting in Worcester?

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