Landlord and rental kitchens in Wembley

Is landlord and rental kitchens right for your Wembley kitchen?

Landlords with rental flats in Wembley often replace a kitchen between tenancies, when the property is empty and the work will not disturb anyone living there.

If a tenancy has left a Wembley rental with a damaged worktop, swollen units or broken doors, a replacement can cost less over time than repeated repairs. Kitchens in every part of Wembley are covered, and the survey visit is free wherever you are in Greater London.

What is included in the work?

After the survey visit we write the scope down. For landlord and rental kitchens in Wembley it usually covers:

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
Free survey visit, arranged with you, your agent or the outgoing tenant
Old kitchen stripped out, with gas capped and circuits made safe
New kitchen fitted between tenancies to an agreed programme

These guide ranges include VAT at 20% and are adjusted for prices in London. We confirm your price in writing after a free survey visit. Prices in London usually run above the national guide, mainly because labour and parking cost more.

Local homes and their kitchens

The housing mix across Greater London includes Victorian and Edwardian terraces, conversion flats, mansion block flats and 1930s semis, so no two kitchen fits are quite alike. Victorian terraces often have a narrow galley beside the side return, while conversion flats and mansion blocks usually fit the kitchen into a small room or along one living-room wall.

London's mains water is hard, so limescale builds quickly on taps and boiling water taps, and a scale-reducing filter is worth planning in. Permit parking, red routes and flats without lifts are common, so parking suspensions, stair carries and lift bookings may need arranging before delivery day.

Do you need approval for landlord and rental kitchens in Wembley?

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.

Conservation areas are widespread across London, so a new extractor vent on a front wall may need permission, and leaseholders usually need the freeholder's written consent first.

Worth knowing before the fit

Ask your letting agent to hold a spare set of keys for the fitting period, and to pass on any alarm codes securely.
Give your Wembley tenants notice of the survey in line with the tenancy agreement, and agree a time for the visit that suits them.
Keep a spare door, a few plinth clips and some handles from the order in storage, ready for quick repairs between tenancies.
Plan fire safety in shared kitchens, such as a heat alarm and a fire blanket, as HMO licences commonly set these out.

Questions about landlord and rental kitchens in Wembley

How much do landlord and rental kitchens cost in Wembley?

Landlord and rental kitchens in Wembley typically cost £7,800 to £14,300 including VAT for a small rental kitchen in a flat or terrace, supplied and fitted, based on prices in London. Larger or more involved jobs cost more, and your price is fixed in writing after a free survey visit.

Can you measure up in Wembley before quoting?

Yes. Every quote starts with a free, no-obligation survey visit to your home in Wembley. We measure the room, check the walls, floor and service positions, then send an itemised written quote.

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.

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.
