Landlord and rental kitchens in Tewkesbury
Landlord and rental kitchens in Tewkesbury start with a free survey visit: we measure up, check the walls, floor and service positions, and explain what the job involves before anything is priced.
Is landlord and rental kitchens right for your Tewkesbury kitchen?
If you have bought a property in Gloucestershire to let and the kitchen is dated, replacing it before the first tenancy is far less disruptive than doing it later.
Shared houses across Gloucestershire often need larger kitchens with more storage, more worktop and extra cooking space, laid out around the conditions in the HMO licence. Tewkesbury sits about 9 miles north of Gloucester, and our Gloucestershire coverage takes in everything in between.
What is included in the work?
The exact scope is agreed after the survey, but a typical job in Tewkesbury covers:
- New kitchen fitted between tenancies to an agreed programme
- Extraction planned to take moisture outside and help limit condensation
- Gas hob or cooker connected by a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Electrical work tested and certified to BS 7671, with certificates handed over
- Free survey visit, arranged with you, your agent or the outgoing tenant
- Hard-wearing units, laminate worktops and wipe-clean finishes specified for rental use

Kitchens in homes around Tewkesbury
The housing mix across Gloucestershire includes cotswold stone cottages, Regency townhouses, Victorian terraces and post-war estate houses, so no two kitchen fits are quite alike. Cotswold stone cottages often have a small kitchen in a rear extension, while Regency townhouses in Cheltenham may have a long kitchen at garden level or in a former basement.
Hard water is the norm across most of Gloucestershire, so expect limescale on taps and appliances and think about a filter for a boiling water tap. Stone villages with narrow lanes and limited parking can make deliveries slow, and townhouse flats over several floors may mean carrying units up stairs.
What rules apply to landlord and rental kitchens in Tewkesbury?
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 stone cottages, Cheltenham's Regency terraces and homes in conservation areas may need consent before new vents are cut or historic features are removed.
Practical advice for Tewkesbury homeowners
- Ask your letting agent to hold a spare set of keys for the fitting period, and to pass on any alarm codes securely.
- Schedule the kitchen alongside other void-period jobs at your property in Gloucestershire, such as decorating, so the home is ready to let in one go.
- If your Tewkesbury 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 Tewkesbury
How much do landlord and rental kitchens cost in Tewkesbury?
Guide prices in Tewkesbury are about £6,200 to £11,300 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.
Do you work near Tewkesbury as well?
Yes. As well as Tewkesbury itself, we cover the rest of Gloucestershire and nearby towns such as Cheltenham and Pershore. The process is the same wherever the kitchen is.
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.
Can you work with my letting agent on access?
Yes. Landlords who live away from the property often prefer this, so we can arrange keys, survey times and fitting access through your letting agent, with you approving the quote and any changes. We do not manage properties or act as a letting agent; we carry out the kitchen work and keep both you and your agent updated as it progresses.
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.
