Kitchens in homes across County Tyrone
You will find rural bungalows, farmhouses, red-brick terraces and post-war estate houses throughout County Tyrone. Rural bungalows often have a long kitchen-dining room at the back, while terraced houses in Omagh and Strabane tend to have a narrow kitchen in the return.
Hardness varies across County Tyrone depending on the source, and some rural homes use private supplies, so check before choosing a filter or boiling water tap. Farm lanes, long drives and narrow country roads can limit delivery vehicles, so worktop lengths and delivery times are planned at the survey.
In a rural bungalow or farmhouse, the kitchen often doubles as the main living space, with a range, a large table and a utility for boots. Terraced houses in the towns tend to have small return kitchens that owners open into the living room.
Rules for replacement kitchen doors in County Tyrone
In Northern Ireland, new kitchen doors need no planning permission and no building control application. If the house is listed, check before altering any original fitted joinery, as listed building consent may be needed. Lighting added to plinths or cornice should be installed and tested to BS 7671 and certified, even though there is no notification scheme for domestic electrical work. The doors, panels and handles themselves need no paperwork.
A kitchen fit itself needs no planning permission, but listed buildings and homes in conservation areas in older town centres may need consent for new external vents.
Before you start
- Check the carcasses first; a swollen sink base, a sagging shelf or loose hinge plates mean some units may need replacing before new doors.
- If the worktops are also worn, consider replacing them in the same visit rather than fitting new doors beside tired surfaces.
- Door sizes and hinge positions vary between makers, so doors must be made to measure or matched carefully to your existing units.
- Old drawer boxes may not take new fronts neatly; worn runners or unusual fixings sometimes make new drawer boxes worth adding.
- Choose handles after the doors, holding samples against the new colour in your County Tyrone kitchen's daylight before anything is drilled.
- If you let out a County Tyrone property, new doors can often be fitted between tenancies in a day or two once they have been delivered.
Questions about replacement kitchen doors in County Tyrone
How much do replacement kitchen doors cost in County Tyrone?
For 15 to 20 doors and drawer fronts, supplied and fitted, budget around £880 to £2,600 including VAT in County Tyrone. That reflects typical costs in Northern Ireland; we confirm the actual figure in writing once we have measured up.
Do you cover the whole of County Tyrone?
Yes. We carry out replacement kitchen doors across County Tyrone, including Omagh, Strabane, Dungannon and Cookstown. Every job starts with a free survey visit and an itemised written quote.
Can new doors be fitted to my existing kitchen units?
Usually, yes, as long as the carcasses are sound. We measure every door and drawer front at the survey and check the hinge positions, because sizes vary between makers and older kitchens often use sizes that are no longer standard. Doors are then made to measure or matched to your units, drilled for new hinges and hung so the gaps line up across each run.
What if some of my kitchen units are water damaged?
Damaged units are replaced before the new doors go on, because swollen chipboard does not recover. The sink base is the usual problem, from slow leaks at the trap or tap, followed by units beside the dishwasher. We check every carcass at the survey, look for the cause of any leak, and price replacement units as a separate line so you can see the cost clearly.
Are new hinges and handles fitted with the doors?
Yes, normally. Old hinges are often worn or set for the old doors, so new soft-close hinges are fitted and adjusted so the doors close quietly and the gaps run even. Handles are drilled from a template so every one sits at the same height and distance from the edge. If you would like to reuse your existing handles, the new doors are drilled to suit them.
