Kitchens in homes across Greater Manchester
You will find Victorian terraces, 1930s semis, converted mill and warehouse flats and post-war estate houses throughout Greater Manchester. Two-up two-down terraces often have a small back kitchen or a galley in the rear outrigger, while 1930s semis usually have a separate kitchen beside the dining room.
Mains water across Greater Manchester is mostly soft, so limescale is less of a problem and taps and boiling water taps tend to stay cleaner. Terraced streets with back alleys, city-centre flats with booked lifts and permit parking can all affect delivery timing and how long worktops are carried in.
A common terrace project is opening the back kitchen into the middle room to make a kitchen-diner. Converted mill and warehouse flats often have open-plan kitchens against exposed brick or concrete, which affects how units, shelves and extraction are fixed.
Rules for landlord and rental kitchens in Greater Manchester
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.
Listed mill conversions and homes in conservation areas may need consent for new external vents, and apartment owners usually need the freeholder's or managing agent's consent.
Before you 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.
- Make sure extraction takes moisture outside where possible, because condensation and mould in a let kitchen can quickly turn into a repair problem.
- Laminate worktops, durable doors and a wipe-clean floor cost less to buy and are cheaper to put right after a tenancy.
- For an HMO, check your licence conditions and the council's HMO standards for numbers of sinks, cookers, worktop space and storage before ordering.
- Give your Greater Manchester tenants notice of the survey in line with the tenancy agreement, and agree a time for the visit that suits them.
- Ask your letting agent to hold a spare set of keys for the fitting period, and to pass on any alarm codes securely.
Questions about landlord and rental kitchens in Greater Manchester
How much do landlord and rental kitchens cost in Greater Manchester?
Landlord and rental kitchens in Greater Manchester typically cost £5,700 to £10,400 including VAT for a small rental kitchen in a flat or terrace, supplied and fitted, based on prices in the North West. Larger or more involved jobs cost more, and your price is fixed in writing after a free survey visit.
Do you cover the whole of Greater Manchester?
Yes. We carry out landlord and rental kitchens across Greater Manchester, including Manchester, Oldham, Wigan and Bolton. Every job starts with a free survey visit and an itemised written quote.
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.
What does an HMO kitchen need to include?
It depends on your licence. HMO licence conditions and the council's HMO standards usually set the number of sinks and cookers, the amount of worktop and storage for the number of occupiers, and fire safety such as a heat alarm and a fire blanket. Check your licence conditions before the design is finalised, and send them to us so the kitchen is laid out to meet them.
