Before your kitchen makeover in Bartley Green
Planning permission is rarely needed for this work in Bartley Green. We'll still look at access, parking for deliveries and any shared boundaries before we price it.
- Replacing doors and worktops on existing units doesn't usually need Building Regulations approval.
- A gas hob taken out for new worktops must be reconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
- Glass splashbacks behind a hob need to be heat-rated and fitted with the hob manufacturer's clearances.

Which option fits your home?
Lighting and small upgrades
Under-cabinet LED strips, plinth lights or new ceiling spotlights make the kitchen easier to work in. Adding lights to an existing kitchen circuit isn't notifiable, but a new circuit is, and either way the electrical work is tested. A new sink and tap or a replacement extractor can be added to the same visit.
Handles, hinges and drawer runners
Swapping handles changes the style at very low cost, and upgrading to soft-close hinges and runners makes old units feel new. New handles may not line up with old screw holes, so they're usually fitted at the same time as new doors, or the old holes are filled carefully.

Questions about kitchen makeovers in Bartley Green
What guarantees do replacement doors and worktops have?
Doors, worktops, sinks, taps and hinges carry their own manufacturers' guarantees, and the terms for each product are set out in your quote. Some worktop guarantees depend on correct sealing and care, so we'll tell you what the manufacturer asks for. If anything we fitted isn't right afterwards, call us and we'll come back to look at it.
Which postcodes in Bartley Green do you work in?
We cover B32 and the streets around them. If you're on the edge of Bartley Green, neighbouring Northfield and Harborne are covered too.
What should I do before the makeover starts?
Clear the worktops and empty the cupboard under the sink, plus any cupboards whose doors are being changed on the first day. If worktops are being replaced, empty everything along those runs. Have a think about handle positions and splashback height before the fit, and keep a sample of your floor handy so we can check colours together.
Who approves kitchen makeovers in Bartley Green?
Not normally. The exception is a listed building, where Birmingham City Council would need to give listed building consent first.
