What this work involves
Start with a final kitchen installation drawing. Then establish which walls, floors and connections change. This avoids furniture that does not fit or inaccessible services.
- Removal of the existing kitchen
- Layout and wall changes
- Water, drainage, electrics and ventilation
- Floor and wall finishes
- Measuring, delivery and installation
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Create a retention list before breaking the renovation into work packages.
Decide this before construction
Dismantle retained elements only with an agreed recording and storage plan. Take final bespoke measurements after assessing the adjoining substrate.
Which trade-off matters?
Making every surface perfectly uniform can remove recognisable details. Compare local repairs with full renewal and agree where small dimensional differences may deliberately remain visible.
Compare the complete intervention
Separate retention, repair and new bespoke work in the quotation. This shows the preparation and protection effort alongside the visible end result.
Cost factors for this service
Building preparation is often separate from the kitchen price. Include service changes and repairs to adjacent surfaces.
Bring this to the discussion
Kitchen design, installation drawing, dimensions and photographs.
Questions about the work
When should the kitchen be measured?
Agree this with the supplier. After building changes, final measuring may need to wait until the relevant dimensions are reliable.
The design situations here illustrate choices; they are not completed projects or a diagnosis of your property.
