What kind of kitchens do we fit in Renfrew?
Across Renfrewshire and Inverclyde you will often find sandstone tenement flats, Victorian villas, four-in-a-block flats and new-build estates, and each shapes the kitchen differently. Paisley and Greenock tenement flats often have a kitchen off the hall, while villas and newer homes in Newton Mearns tend to have larger kitchens with island space.
Steep streets in Greenock, tenement common stairs and four-in-a-block flats with outside stairs can all affect deliveries and worktop handling. Water in Renfrewshire and Inverclyde is soft, which is kind to taps and appliances and keeps limescale on boiling water taps to a minimum.
Building regulations, electrics and gas in Renfrew
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.
Paisley and Greenock have conservation areas and listed buildings, so a new external vent may need consent, and tenement owners may need neighbours' agreement.
Before you book kitchen installation in Renfrew
- Check that your Renfrew delivery can reach the kitchen: tall larder units and long worktops need clear access through doors and stairs.
- Ask for appliance sizes and ventilation gaps to be checked against the housings before you buy appliances for a Renfrew kitchen.
- Order stone worktops early in the plan, as templating can only happen once the base units are fixed.
- Leave every box sealed until the fit; parts get lost or damaged once packaging is opened and stacked around the house.
Questions about kitchen installation in Renfrew
How much does kitchen installation cost in Renfrew?
Guide prices in Renfrew are about £1,400 to £2,400 including VAT for a small kitchen of 5 to 10 units, fit only. The final price depends on the size of the kitchen and what is moving, and is set out in an itemised written quote.
Can you measure up in Renfrew before quoting?
Yes. Every quote starts with a free, no-obligation survey visit to your home in Renfrew. We measure the room, check the walls, floor and service positions, then send an itemised written quote.
Can I use my kitchen during the installation?
Not for most of it. Once the old kitchen comes out there is no sink or cooker until the new one is connected, usually a week or two for an average kitchen. We plan the job so the water and power are off for as little time as possible, and we tell you which days will be the most disruptive.
What order does a kitchen installation follow?
The usual sequence is strip-out, any structural work, first-fix electrics and plumbing, plastering, base and wall units, worktops, second fix of sockets, sink, tap and appliances, then splashbacks, flooring and decorating. Some floors go down before the units and some after, depending on the floor type, which we agree at the survey.
Will you fit a kitchen I have bought myself?
Yes. We fit kitchens bought from any retailer, trade counter or online supplier, flat-pack or rigid. On the survey we check the plan, and before fitting we check the delivery against it. Missing or damaged parts are for the supplier to replace, and we tell you straight away so the fit can be re-planned.
