Kitchen fitters in Bristol
We fit kitchens across Bristol: kitchens you have bought from any supplier, or complete kitchens we design, supply and fit, with every trade booked in the right order. Many Bristol terraces have a small kitchen behind the back room, and opening the two into one space is a popular change. Where a flat sits in a converted Georgian or Victorian house, the work often means fitting a lot into a modest room while working around shared walls and services.
Kitchens in homes across Bristol
Typical properties here include Victorian terraces, Georgian townhouses and flats, 1930s semis and flats in converted houses. Bristol's Victorian terraces often have a narrow rear galley, while Georgian houses split into flats can have kitchens tucked into former bedrooms or reception rooms.
Bristol's mains water is hard, so limescale on taps, kettles and boiling water taps is common, and an inline filter or softener can help. Steep hillside streets, permit parking and terraces with no rear access are common in the city, so long worktops may need careful handling through the front door.
Rules for kitchen work in Bristol
Fitting a new kitchen does not need planning permission in England. Listed building consent may be needed if the building is listed, and a new vent through the outside wall of a flat may need planning permission and the freeholder's consent. Electrical work must meet BS 7671, and new circuits or a new consumer unit are notifiable under Part P, so they are certified through a competent person scheme or building control. New extraction should be designed to Approved Document F rates (about 30 litres per second for a hood ducted outside), a refit should not leave ventilation worse than before, and only Gas Safe registered engineers may connect a gas hob.
Many of the city's older streets are conservation areas and some houses are listed, so a new extractor vent or the removal of historic features may need consent first.

Questions about kitchen fitting in Bristol
How much does kitchen fitting cost in Bristol?
Fitting a medium kitchen you have already bought costs around £2,600 to £3,600 including VAT in Bristol, based on prices in the South West. A mid-range kitchen supplied and fitted costs around £18,500 to £36,000. Your price is fixed in writing after a free survey visit.
Which towns in Bristol do you cover?
We cover the whole of Bristol. If your town is not listed, send us your postcode.
Can I use my kitchen while it is being fitted?
Not for most of the job. Once the old kitchen comes out there is no sink or cooker until the new ones are connected, usually around one to two weeks for a typical refit. We tell you in advance which days the water and power will be off, so you can set up a temporary kitchen elsewhere in the house.
How long does it take to fit a kitchen?
Usually three to twelve days on site: three to five for a small kitchen, five to eight for a medium one and eight to twelve for a large one. Stone worktops are fitted about one to two weeks after templating, and new plaster needs three to six weeks to dry before full decorating.
