Replacement kitchen doors in Feltham

Why replacement kitchen doors for a Feltham home?

Landlords across Greater London often refresh a rental kitchen between tenancies with new doors and drawer fronts, keeping the sound carcasses and the appliances in place.

Homeowners in Feltham with solid, well-fitted units but tired doors often choose new fronts rather than living through the upheaval of a full kitchen replacement. Feltham sits about 12 miles west of Westminster, and our Greater London coverage takes in everything in between.

What does the job involve?

Your written quote lists everything included. For replacement kitchen doors, that normally means:

Drawer fronts fixed to existing drawer boxes, or new boxes where worn
Free survey visit to check the carcasses and measure every door and drawer front
Handles or knobs drilled from a template so they sit at a consistent height
Hinge holes drilled to line up with the positions on your carcasses
Doors and drawer fronts made to measure or matched to the existing sizes
New fronts fixed to integrated appliances with their door-fixing kits

Local homes and their kitchens

You will find Victorian and Edwardian terraces, conversion flats, mansion block flats and 1930s semis throughout Greater London. 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.

Permit parking, red routes and flats without lifts are common, so parking suspensions, stair carries and lift bookings may need arranging before delivery day. 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.

What rules apply to replacement kitchen doors in Feltham?

Replacing kitchen doors needs no planning permission or Building Regulations approval in England, because nothing structural, electrical or plumbed changes. The exception is a listed building, where original fitted cupboards or joinery may need listed building consent before they are altered. If you add plinth or cornice lighting at the same time, the wiring must meet BS 7671, and a new circuit for it would be notifiable under Part P.

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.

Before you book replacement kitchen doors in Feltham

If the hob or sink in your Greater London kitchen needs to move, plan a fuller refit rather than new doors on a layout that does not work.
Allow for delivery time on made-to-measure doors; your kitchen stays usable while you wait, as nothing comes off until they arrive.
Count every door, drawer front, end panel and plinth before asking for prices, including integrated appliance doors and panels at the ends of runs.
If the worktops are also worn, consider replacing them in the same visit rather than fitting new doors beside tired surfaces.

Questions about replacement kitchen doors in Feltham

How much do replacement kitchen doors cost in Feltham?

Guide prices in Feltham are about £1,300 to £3,900 including VAT for 15 to 20 doors and drawer fronts, 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 Feltham as well?

Yes. As well as Feltham itself, we cover the rest of Greater London and nearby towns such as Hanworth and Ashford, Surrey. The process is the same wherever the kitchen is.

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.

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.
