Landlord and rental kitchens in Bordon
We take on landlord and rental kitchens in Bordon and the surrounding GU35 postcodes, working to a written scope so you know exactly what is included before anyone starts.
When do landlord and rental kitchens make sense in Bordon?
Portfolio landlords in Bordon sometimes standardise one durable kitchen specification across the properties they let, so doors, handles and parts are easy to match later.
If you have bought a property in Hampshire to let and the kitchen is dated, replacing it before the first tenancy is far less disruptive than doing it later. Bordon sits about 28 miles north-east of Southampton, and our Hampshire coverage takes in everything in between.
What is included in the work?
After the survey visit we write the scope down. For landlord and rental kitchens in Bordon it usually covers:
- New kitchen fitted between tenancies to an agreed programme
- Free survey visit, arranged with you, your agent or the outgoing tenant
- Gas hob or cooker connected by a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Hard-wearing units, laminate worktops and wipe-clean finishes specified for rental use
- Extraction planned to take moisture outside and help limit condensation
- HMO kitchens laid out around your licence conditions for sinks, cookers and storage
How much do landlord and rental kitchens cost in Bordon?
Use these ranges to plan your budget. They include VAT, reflect costs in the South East, and are firmed up once we have seen your Bordon kitchen. Prices in the South East usually run above the national guide, mainly because labour and parking cost more.
| Typical project | Guide price |
|---|---|
| Small rental kitchen (flat or terrace), supplied and fittedHard-wearing units, laminate worktops, essential appliances | £6,900–£12,600 |
| Family let kitchen, supplied and fittedMore units and appliances, durable finishes | £10,400–£18,400 |
| Shared kitchen in an HMO, supplied and fittedLonger runs, extra storage, durable surfaces | £11,500–£23,000 |
Rental kitchen ranges include hard-wearing units, laminate worktops, essential appliances and fitting with connections to the existing layout; new circuits, moved services, flooring and tiling are quoted as separate lines where needed. Prices include VAT at 20%.
Local homes and their kitchens
Typical homes in this part of Hampshire include Victorian terraces, 1930s semis, post-war estate houses and thatched and brick cottages. Terraces in Southampton and Portsmouth often have a narrow back kitchen, while post-war estate houses tend to have a compact rectangular room suited to an L-shape.
Water across Hampshire is mostly hard, largely from chalk sources, so limescale on taps and boiling water taps is common and a filter can help. Dense terraced streets can be very tight for parking, and New Forest lanes and village roads may limit the size of delivery vehicle.
Regulations for kitchen work in Bordon
In England, a replacement rental kitchen needs no planning permission, though a listed building may need listed building consent. New circuits are notifiable under Part P and certified through a competent person scheme or building control. Private landlords need an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), with portable appliance testing (PAT) of any appliances they supply, at least every five years, plus annual gas safety checks, so keep the new certificates with those records. Gas connections are made only by Gas Safe registered engineers, and HMO kitchens must meet the licence conditions.
Homes within the New Forest or South Downs national parks, listed cottages and conservation areas may need consent for a new extractor vent or alterations to historic features.
Getting the most from your landlord and rental kitchens
- Choose a worktop with a slight pattern for a Bordon rental, as plain very dark or very pale surfaces show marks and scratches sooner.
- Keep copies of every certificate and the kitchen specification in the property file, so a future repair can be matched exactly.
- If your Bordon property is an HMO, send us a copy of the licence conditions before the survey so the layout meets them from the start.
- Pick a door style and colour from a range likely to stay available, so one damaged door can be replaced without changing the whole kitchen.
Questions about landlord and rental kitchens in Bordon
How much do landlord and rental kitchens cost in Bordon?
Guide prices in Bordon are about £6,900 to £12,600 including VAT for a small rental kitchen in a flat or terrace, supplied and fitted. 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 Bordon before quoting?
Yes. Every quote starts with a free, no-obligation survey visit to your home in Bordon. We measure the room, check the walls, floor and service positions, then send an itemised written quote.
What kind of kitchen lasts longest in a rented home?
A rental kitchen lasts longest when it combines well-built carcasses, doors with a tough, easily cleaned finish, laminate worktops with sealed edges and a wipe-clean vinyl floor. Simple, widely available appliances are quicker to replace when one fails. Finishes that mark easily or need regular oiling, such as solid wood worktops, are better avoided unless you are prepared to maintain them.
How quickly can a rental kitchen be replaced between tenancies?
Usually three to seven days on site once the property is empty, depending on the size of the kitchen and whether services move. Ordering is the bigger factor, so we aim to survey during the notice period and have the kitchen delivered for the day the tenancy ends. Short gaps between tenancies are much easier to meet when the specification is settled early.
Will I get certificates for the gas and electrical work?
Yes. Electrical work comes with an Electrical Installation Certificate or Minor Works Certificate, and the Gas Safe registered engineer provides a record of any gas work. These are separate from the annual gas safety check and any periodic electrical inspection, which landlords arrange on their own schedule. Keep them all together with your property records.
