Landlord and rental kitchens in Lisburn
Our landlord and rental kitchens service covers Lisburn and nearby places such as Belfast and Castlereagh, with a free survey visit and an itemised written quote as the first step.
Is landlord and rental kitchens right for your Lisburn kitchen?
If a tenancy has left a Lisburn rental with a damaged worktop, swollen units or broken doors, a replacement can cost less over time than repeated repairs.
If you have bought a property in County Antrim to let and the kitchen is dated, replacing it before the first tenancy is far less disruptive than doing it later. Our County Antrim coverage reaches every part of Lisburn (BT27 and BT28) and out towards Belfast.
What is in a typical job?
Your written quote lists everything included. For landlord and rental kitchens, that normally means:
- Electrical work tested and certified to BS 7671, with certificates handed over
- HMO kitchens laid out around your licence conditions for sinks, cookers and storage
- 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
- Old kitchen stripped out, with gas capped and circuits made safe

House types around Lisburn and what they mean for a kitchen
You will find red-brick terraces, Victorian villas, post-war estate houses and rural bungalows throughout County Antrim. Red-brick terraces in Belfast often have a narrow kitchen in the return, while estate houses and rural bungalows tend to have a separate kitchen with room for a table.
Terraced streets with entries at the back, city flats with booked lifts and country lanes can each affect deliveries, so the route for worktops is checked at the survey. Mains water across most of County Antrim is soft, so limescale is less of a problem and taps and boiling water taps tend to stay cleaner.
Building regulations, electrics and gas in Lisburn
In Northern Ireland, a like-for-like rental kitchen needs no planning permission or building control approval. There is no notification scheme for domestic electrical work, but it should be tested and certified to BS 7671. Annual gas safety checks apply to rented homes, and gas connections are for Gas Safe registered engineers only. Private landlords must also have the electrical installation inspected and tested at least every five years under the Electrical Safety Standards for Private Tenancies Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2024.
Listed buildings and conservation areas in older parts of Belfast and the county towns may need consent for new vents, and apartment owners usually need management consent.
Tips before you start
- Keep a spare door, a few plinth clips and some handles from the order in storage, ready for quick repairs between tenancies.
- Schedule the kitchen alongside other void-period jobs at your property in County Antrim, such as decorating, so the home is ready to let in one go.
- Give your Lisburn tenants notice of the survey in line with the tenancy agreement, and agree a time for the visit that suits them.
- Laminate worktops, durable doors and a wipe-clean floor cost less to buy and are cheaper to put right after a tenancy.
Questions about landlord and rental kitchens in Lisburn
How much do landlord and rental kitchens cost in Lisburn?
Landlord and rental kitchens in Lisburn typically cost £5,300 to £9,700 including VAT for a small rental kitchen in a flat or terrace, supplied and fitted, based on prices in Northern Ireland. Larger or more involved jobs cost more, and your price is fixed in writing after a free survey visit.
Can you measure up in Lisburn before quoting?
Yes. Every quote starts with a free, no-obligation survey visit to your home in Lisburn. We measure the room, check the walls, floor and service positions, then send an itemised written quote.
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.
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.
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.
