Kitchen Fitting Services by Pro Renovation: Expert Installation from Start to Finish
Kitchen fitting refers to the process of installing a new kitchen, which can range from simply replacing a few units to a complete overhaul of the space. This includes plumbing, electrical work, tiling, and flooring. Below is a comprehensive overview of what kitchen fitting typically involves.
What Does Kitchen Fitting Typically Involve?
What Does Kitchen Fitting Typically Involve?
  1. Planning and Design:
Measuring the Space: Accurate measurements of your kitchen are crucial.
Layout Design: Deciding on the arrangement of cabinets, appliances, sink, and worktops. This often involves using kitchen design software or collaborating with a kitchen designer.
Choosing Units and Appliances: Selecting the style, materials, and functionality of cabinets, worktops, sink, taps, and both integrated and freestanding appliances (oven, hob, extractor fan, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine).
Considering Plumbing and Electrical Requirements: Planning the locations of sinks, dishwashers, washing machines, ovens, hobs, and electrical sockets, which may require moving existing services or installing new ones.
  2. Preparation:
Removing the Old Kitchen: This includes dismantling and disposing of existing cabinets, worktops, appliances, flooring, and sometimes even tiles.
Structural Work (if needed): This may involve removing or building walls, moving doorways, or installing new windows, often requiring building regulations approval.
First Fix Plumbing and Electrical: Running new pipework for sinks, dishwashers, and washing machines, and installing new electrical cables for appliances, sockets, and lighting. This work should be performed by qualified professionals (Gas Safe registered for gas appliances and Part P qualified for electrical work).
Plastering and Making Good: Ensuring walls and ceilings are level and ready for tiling or painting.
   3. Installation:
Installing Base Units: Securing the base cabinets to the walls and floor, ensuring they are level and stable.
Installing Wall Units: Mounting the wall cabinets at the appropriate height and ensuring they are securely fixed.
Installing Worktops: Fitting and securing the worktops, which may involve cutting them to size, joining sections, and creating cutouts for sinks and hobs.
Installing the Sink and Taps: Connecting the sink and taps to the water supply and waste pipes.
Installing Appliances: Fitting integrated appliances into the units and connecting them to the necessary services (electricity, gas, water). Freestanding appliances will also be positioned and connected.
   4. Tiling and Flooring:
Tiling: Installing wall tiles as a splashback or for decorative purposes.
Flooring: Laying new flooring, such as tiles, laminate, vinyl, or wood.
   5. Finishing Touches:
Connecting Electrical Fixtures: Installing light fixtures, under-cabinet lighting, and connecting appliances to power outlets.
Connecting Gas Appliances: A Gas Safe registered engineer will connect gas hobs and ovens.
Sealing and Caulking: Sealing around worktops, sinks, and appliances to prevent water damage.
Installing Plinths and End Panels: Covering the gaps at the bottom and sides of the cabinets for a polished look.
Fitting Handles and Knobs: Attaching handles and knobs to cabinet doors and drawers.
Waste Disposal: Connecting waste disposal units (if applicable).
Testing: Ensuring all appliances, taps, and lighting function correctly.
Cleaning Up: Removing all debris and leaving the kitchen clean and tidy.
Complete Loss of Water Supply:
While this may sometimes be due to mains issues, it can also indicate a serious plumbing problem within your property.
