How long does kitchen installation take?

A small kitchen takes 3-5 days. Medium kitchens typically 5-7 days. Large or complex kitchens can take 7-10 days or more. This excludes any building, electrical, or plumbing work.

Can you install my IKEA, Howdens, or Wren kitchen?

Yes! I install kitchens from all major suppliers — IKEA, Howdens, Wren, Magnet, B&Q, and bespoke. Just let me know which units you have and I'll provide a quote for fitting.

Do I need a separate electrician and plumber?

Yes, for any electrical or gas work you'll need qualified tradespeople. I can coordinate with trusted local electricians and plumbers, or you can arrange your own.

Should I supply the kitchen or should you?

Either option works. Many clients prefer to supply their own units to access trade discounts or choose specific finishes. I can also source units at competitive trade rates.

Can you just fit new worktops?

Yes. If your existing units are in good condition, I can replace just the worktops. This is a cost-effective way to refresh your kitchen without a full replacement.
