Kitchen fitters in the Scottish Borders
We fit kitchens across the Scottish Borders: kitchens you have bought from any supplier, or complete kitchens we design, supply and fit, with every trade booked in the right order. Stone terraces in the mill towns usually have small rooms and thick walls that suit a galley or L-shaped layout. Farm cottages are often off the gas grid, so cooking may be planned around induction, LPG or an oil-fired range.
Kitchens in homes across the Scottish Borders
Typical properties here include stone mill-town terraces, Victorian villas, farm cottages and post-war council-built houses. Stone terraces in Hawick and Galashiels often have a small kitchen at the back, while Victorian villas in Peebles and Kelso tend to have larger separate kitchens.
The Scottish Borders generally have soft mains water, though rural homes on private supplies may need testing and filtering. Rural roads and farm tracks can be narrow for delivery lorries, and older town centres may have limited parking, so delivery is planned in advance.
Rules for kitchen work in the Scottish Borders
In Scotland, replacing kitchen fitments, adding an extractor fan and most electrical work in a house do not need a building warrant, but the work must still meet the building standards and BS 7671, so ask for an Electrical Installation Certificate. Removing a load-bearing wall or changing how waste water is discharged needs a warrant first. Gas hobs must be connected by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Every home in Scotland must have an interlinked heat alarm in the kitchen, so it is kept or refitted, and tested, as part of the job.
Older Borders towns often have conservation areas and listed buildings, so a new external vent or changes to historic features may need consent.

How do I get started?
Start with the guide-price tool for a quick range for your kitchen and region, or book a survey visit straight away. The survey is free and there is no obligation. After it you receive an itemised written quote, and your price is fixed in writing once the layout, specification and scope are agreed.
What are your payment terms?
Payment terms are set out in your written quote before any work starts, so you know when each payment falls due and what it covers. Please read them alongside the scope of work and ask us about anything that is unclear. If you agree the contract at your home or at a distance, for example by email or phone, you normally have 14 days to cancel; our terms explain how this works.
