What does kitchen installation involve?
Kitchen installation covers removing the old kitchen, preparing the room, fitting new units and worktops, connecting plumbing and appliances, and finishing with tiling and flooring. We supply kitchens or fit ones you have bought.
- Planning and building control applications to the council
- Design and layout check
- Plastering and making good

How is kitchen installation approved in Downpatrick?
In Northern Ireland the council handles both planning and building control. Permitted development rules are set by the Planning (General Permitted Development) Order (Northern Ireland) 2015, and there is no party wall act, so we agree access and protection with neighbours in writing.
A new kitchen does not need planning permission.
What can change the price or programme?
- Worktops in stone or quartz are templated after the units go in, adding a week or two.
- Induction hobs often need a dedicated circuit.
How does the project run?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
