Supply and fit kitchens in Southampton
We take on supply and fit kitchens in Southampton and the surrounding SO15 postcodes, working to a written scope so you know exactly what is included before anyone starts.
When do supply and fit kitchens make sense in Southampton?
When a Southampton kitchen is changing layout, with the sink, hob or appliances moving, supply and fit keeps the design and the trades in one plan.
Homeowners in Southampton often choose supply and fit when they want one company to handle the kitchen from the first measurement to the last plinth. Homes right across Southampton are covered, as are nearby places such as Hythe, Hampshire, Totton and the villages in between.
What is in a typical job?
The exact scope is agreed after the survey, but a typical job in Southampton covers:
- Splashbacks, tiling, flooring and a final check together before handover
- Units, panels, plinths, worktops and fixings ordered to the agreed plan
- Strip-out, electrics, plumbing and gas work booked with qualified trades
- Free survey visit with full measurements and a check of the services
- Units, worktops, sink and appliances fitted, with stone templated after the base units
- Help choosing door styles, carcass construction, worktops, sinks and appliances

What kind of kitchens do we fit in Southampton?
Across Hampshire you will often find Victorian terraces, 1930s semis, post-war estate houses and thatched and brick cottages, and each shapes the kitchen differently. 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 Southampton
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.
Practical advice for Southampton homeowners
- If you are redecorating as well, judge paint colours against the door samples in your own kitchen light in Hampshire, not under bright shop lighting.
- 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 for the lead time on your chosen range before setting a fitting date for your Southampton home, as premium ranges can take several months.
- Bespoke and made-to-measure kitchens typically take longer still, so allow for that if you are working towards a moving-in date.
Questions about supply and fit kitchens in Southampton
How much do supply and fit kitchens cost in Southampton?
Supply and fit kitchens in Southampton typically cost £9,200 to £20,500 including VAT for a budget kitchen, supplied and fitted, based on prices in the South East. Larger or more involved jobs cost more, and your price is fixed in writing after a free survey visit.
Do you work near Southampton as well?
Yes. As well as Southampton itself, we cover the rest of Hampshire and nearby towns such as Hythe, Hampshire and Totton. The process is the same wherever the kitchen is.
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.
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.
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.
