- The kitchen can usually stay in use for most of a makeover, apart from a day while the sink and hob are disconnected.
- 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.

Choices to weigh up in Hall Green
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.
New worktops
Replacing tired worktops changes a kitchen more than almost anything else. Laminate is quick and affordable, solid wood brings warmth, and quartz or compact laminate is hard-wearing. Changing worktops means disconnecting the sink and hob, so plumbing and, for a gas hob, a Gas Safe registered engineer are included where needed.

How much does a kitchen makeover cost compared with a new kitchen?

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.
Does Birmingham City Council need to approve my kitchen makeover?
Not normally. The exception is a listed building, where Birmingham City Council would need to give listed building consent first.
