Do you need permission for kitchen installation in Hoddesdon?

Projects in England go through two separate checks. Planning (or confirmation that the work is permitted development) comes from the district, borough or unitary council, and building regulations approval comes from the council’s building control team or a registered building control approver. Where work touches a shared wall or digs near a neighbour’s foundations, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies.

A new kitchen does not need planning permission. Some electrical work must be notified under building regulations, and gas work must be done by a Gas Safe registered engineer.

What should I think about before starting?

Moving the sink may need a new waste route or pump.
Extraction ducted outside works far better than recirculation.

What are the steps?

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.
Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
