Kitchen fitters in Rutland
We fit kitchens across Rutland: kitchens you have bought from any supplier, or complete kitchens we design, supply and fit, with every trade booked in the right order. Units and worktops in a stone cottage usually need scribing to uneven walls, and lighting needs planning around small windows. Farmhouses and larger village homes often suit a supply-and-fit kitchen with a range cooker, an island or table and a separate utility.
Kitchens in homes across Rutland
Typical properties here include limestone cottages, stone farmhouses, post-war bungalows and new-build estates. Stone cottages often have a small kitchen with thick walls and deep window reveals, while bungalows and newer homes tend to have a squarer room that suits an L-shape.
Rutland's water is hard, so limescale on taps, sinks and boiling water taps is likely, and a scale-reducing filter can help. Village lanes and farm drives can be narrow for delivery lorries, so long worktops and tall units may need careful handling and a planned delivery time.
Rules for kitchen work in Rutland
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 stone villages in Rutland have conservation areas and listed buildings, so a new external vent or changes to historic features may need consent first.

Which towns in Rutland do you cover?
We cover the whole of Rutland, including Oakham. If your town is not listed, send us your postcode.
Can you move the sink or knock through a wall?
Yes. We move sinks, hobs, cooker hoods and appliances, with new pipework, circuits, gas pipes and ducting as needed. For open-plan kitchens we remove walls, arranging a structural engineer and building control approval for load-bearing walls, or a building warrant in Scotland. Each change is priced as a separate line in your quote.
Who carries out the work?
You have one contract with Kitchen Installers UK and one point of contact. The fitting is done by kitchen fitters working under our management, and the specialist work by qualified trades: Gas Safe registered engineers for any gas work, electricians who test and certify their work to BS 7671, and plumbers, tilers and plasterers, each booked in the right order.
