Renovated open-plan kitchen with a navy shaker island, pale quartz worktop and herringbone floor in Manchester

A new kitchen is only as good as the work behind it. We take care of everything around the units: stripping out, moving walls, re-routing plumbing and waste, new electrical circuits, plastering, flooring and fitting the kitchen itself.

If your kitchen is simply too small, a kitchen extension may be the answer. If the space is there but the layout does not work, knocking through to the dining room is often the best value. See structural alterations for removing load-bearing walls.

Knocking through for an open-plan kitchen

Removing the wall between a kitchen and dining room is one of the most popular changes we make in Manchester homes. If the wall is load-bearing, a structural engineer designs a steel beam and Building Control signs it off. We prop the structure safely, install the beam and make good, usually in a matter of days.

Working with your kitchen supplier

Many clients buy their kitchen from a showroom or online supplier. We are happy to fit it, and we will check the plan and measurements before you order, so the units, appliances and services all line up.

Kitchen renovations: common questions

More answers on our FAQ page.

Can you fit a kitchen I have bought myself?

Yes. We regularly fit kitchens from showrooms and online suppliers, and we will check the plan before you order.

How long does a kitchen renovation take?

A straightforward kitchen refit usually takes around 2 to 4 weeks. Knocking through walls or moving services adds time, which we set out in your quote.

Do I need permission to knock through my kitchen?

You do not normally need planning permission, but removing a load-bearing wall needs Building Regulations approval and a structural engineer's design. We arrange both.
