Our kitchen fitters not only work throughout the area of Croydon but throughout London, Surrey and the South East. Contact our kitchen fitting team to check if we work in your area.

This will depend on a number of factors including the amount of work that is required. Some clients require a  standard kitchen fitting but we often get asked to deal with electrical work, plumbing as well as flooring.  The cost will differ for every kitchen project. Our kitchen fitters in Croydon are happy to carry out any work that you require.

This depends on a range of factors such as the size of the kitchen, the intricacy of the work as well as on any issues that crop up eg late deliveries, extra or unforeseen works and so on. It would also depend on preparation work. If you would like specific guidance based on your setup or style, our kitchen fitters in Croydon will always try to provide you with an estimated installation time when we provide your quote.

We can deal with any electrical work eg new lights, and underfloor heating. We can deal with plumbing work such as moving pipes and installing new pipework. If you have any questions about this, our kitchen fitters in Croydon can help you with your questions. 

During the fitting process there will be short periods of time when the water needs to be turned off.  We will be able to give you notice of this. We will have to isolate valves which will allow us to turn the water on and off just for the kitchen and not the whole house.

All work is guaranteed for 12 months. This is for our workmanship and installation work only, not any defective products. 

Our customers usually have a general idea of what they’d like, but as we have installed many kitchens we often point our customers in the right direction. We are more than happy to use our previous experience and help with your new kitchen design.

Start by considering the layout (e.g., L-shaped, U-shaped, galley), size of the space, and how you use your kitchen. Think about appliance placement, storage needs, and your style preferences. Ensure the plumbing and electrical systems are properly configured to support your kitchen setup. Plan for lighting, ventilation, and adequate counter space.

Standard countertop height is about 36 inches (91.5 cm) from the floor. This height suits most people for comfortable food preparation, but you can adjust it slightly if needed for accessibility.

Typically, you need at least 36-48 inches (91-122 cm) of clearance between counters and an island. This allows for comfortable movement, especially if multiple people use the kitchen.

The work triangle refers to the optimal distance between the sink, stove, and refrigerator, which should ideally form a triangle shape. This design maximizes efficiency by minimizing the walking distance between these key areas. Keep each leg of the triangle between 4-9 feet.

Use a mix of task lighting (under-cabinet lights, pendant lights over the island) and ambient lighting (recessed ceiling lights). Position task lighting directly over work areas, such as counters and sinks, to minimize shadows.
