Supply and fit kitchens in Andover

When do supply and fit kitchens make sense in Andover?

Busy households in Hampshire sometimes choose supply and fit because they have no time to compare carcass specifications, chase deliveries or book each trade separately.

People across Hampshire who have watched a fitter and a retailer blame each other for a problem often prefer a single contract the next time round. We work throughout Andover (SP10) and across the wider Hampshire area.

House types around Andover and what they mean for a kitchen

The housing mix across Hampshire includes Victorian terraces, 1930s semis, post-war estate houses and thatched and brick cottages, so no two kitchen fits are quite alike. Terraces in Southampton and Portsmouth often have a narrow back kitchen, while post-war estate houses tend to have a compact rectangular room suited to an L-shape.

Water across Hampshire is mostly hard, largely from chalk sources, so limescale on taps and boiling water taps is common and a filter can help. Dense terraced streets can be very tight for parking, and New Forest lanes and village roads may limit the size of delivery vehicle.

Regulations for kitchen work in Andover

A supplied and fitted kitchen needs no planning permission in England, except where listed building consent applies or a new vent is cut through the outside wall of a flat. New circuits and consumer units are notifiable under Part P and certified through a competent person scheme or building control. Cooker hoods are planned to meet Approved Document F, and gas hobs are connected by Gas Safe registered engineers.

Homes within the New Forest or South Downs national parks, listed cottages and conservation areas may need consent for a new extractor vent or alterations to historic features.

Planning ahead

Decide whether you want a boiling water tap or an induction hob before the plan is drawn, as each can need power or plumbing planned in.
Ask to see samples of the door, carcass and worktop materials before ordering, so you know exactly what will be delivered to Andover.
If your Andover home is older, ask whether walls and floors need preparing before fitting, as that work is easier to price at the design stage.
Choose appliances before the design is finalised, as their sizes decide housing widths, tall unit heights and where sockets and isolators go.

Questions about supply and fit kitchens in Andover

How much do supply and fit kitchens cost in Andover?

For a budget kitchen, supplied and fitted, budget around £9,200 to £20,500 including VAT in Andover. That reflects typical costs in the South East; we confirm the actual figure in writing once we have measured up.

Do you work near Andover as well?

Yes. As well as Andover itself, we cover the rest of Hampshire and nearby towns such as Winchester and Newbury. The process is the same wherever the kitchen is.

Is kitchen design included when you supply the kitchen?

Yes. The measured survey, layout plan and specification are part of the supply-and-fit price rather than a separate charge. You see the layout, door and worktop choices and appliance positions before ordering, and changes are made at the planning stage, when they are simple to redraw. The agreed plan is what we order from and what the fitters work to.

How long does a supplied kitchen take to arrive?

Roughly four to six weeks for budget ranges, six to ten weeks for mid-range and twelve to twenty weeks for premium ranges, counted from the order. Bespoke and made-to-measure kitchens typically take longer. Stone worktops are templated once the base units are fixed and fitted about one to two weeks later. We confirm the expected lead time for your chosen range before you commit to an order.

Can I choose my own appliances with a supply and fit kitchen?

Yes. You can choose appliances through us as part of the specification or buy them yourself. If you buy them, send us the model details before the design is finalised, so housings, ventilation gaps, door-fixing kits and power points are planned around them. Any manufacturer cover on appliances you buy stays with you and the retailer you bought them from.
