A new kitchen installation replaces your old units, worktops and appliances with a new layout fitted to your room, including the plumbing, electrics, tiling and finishing needed to leave a complete, working kitchen.
Whatever type of house you own in Deal, we start by looking at how a new kitchen would fit it rather than offering a standard package. We cover CT14 and neighbouring places such as Dover, Ramsgate and Broadstairs. One named person looks after you from survey to handover, and nothing is booked until you hold our figure in writing, fixed for the work described.

Building in Deal
Kent's older buildings include oast houses, weatherboarded cottages, Wealden timber-framed houses and Kentish ragstone walls. Medway towns have long rows of Victorian terraces, Margate and Ramsgate have Regency and Victorian seafronts, and Ashford, Maidstone and Dartford have seen large new estates alongside interwar and post-war housing.
Victorian terraces suit loft rooms and rear extensions; weatherboarded and timber-framed buildings may need cladding repairs and lime work. Newer estate homes often take garage conversions, porches and landscaping.
If your house in Deal fits one of these patterns, it helps us anticipate what a new kitchen will involve, though we always confirm the details on site.
Planning and building rules in Deal
Each UK nation sets its own consent rules, and Deal is in England. What follows is a plain summary; we check the specifics for your property with the council before pricing anything.
Internal work such as a new kitchen, bathroom, flooring, plastering or decorating does not need planning permission in England, unless the house is listed, when listed building consent may be needed even for internal changes.
Some internal work is covered by Building Regulations: new electrical circuits and work in bathrooms (Part P), new drainage, structural changes, extractor ventilation and any new window. Notifiable work is certified by a registered installer or by building control.
Rules change and every property is different, so we check the planning history and constraints for your address before we quote.
How does the job run?
A visit to your home
We arrange a free site survey on a date convenient to you. We measure up, look at the existing structure and access, and discuss your plans for a new kitchen so the price reflects your home.
Price and scope agreed
You get the price in writing, itemised so you can see where the money goes. As long as the specification stays the same, that is the price you pay for a new kitchen.
Booking the work
Next comes planning the work itself. We set a start date that suits you, line up the right trades, and make sure any approvals for a new kitchen are in place before the first day on site.
On site to finish
During the work we protect the areas around it and tidy up at the end of each day. Once complete, we check the finish, remove our materials and hand over paperwork such as building control sign-off where it applies.

Frequently asked questions
Which postcodes in Deal do you cover?
We cover CT14, along with the rest of Kent. If your postcode is not listed, get in touch anyway: our coverage is UK-wide, and we can usually arrange a survey wherever you live. Enter your postcode in the guide-price tool or contact form and we will confirm.
What should I do to prepare for my kitchen fitting?
Before fitting starts, empty all cupboards and drawers, clear worktops and remove anything from the walls. Plan where you will make drinks and simple meals for a week or two, and agree where deliveries will be stored, as units take up a lot of space. Make sure we can access the stopcock, fuse board and gas meter. We confirm the delivery date and start date in advance.
Is the price fixed?
Yes, for the specification we agree. Your written quote sets out exactly what is included at a fixed price. It only changes if you ask for something different, or if a problem the survey could not reasonably reveal later needs extra work. In either case we explain the change and confirm it in writing before going ahead.
Can a new kitchen be part of a knock-through?
A new kitchen often goes hand in hand with removing a wall to create an open-plan kitchen-diner. The wall removal, steel beam and building control approval are done first, then the plastering, and finally the kitchen is fitted into the new space. Doing both under one plan avoids fitting a kitchen twice and lets you design the layout for the larger room.
Do I need a new extractor fan?
A kitchen needs effective extraction to remove steam, cooking smells and grease, and building regulations set minimum rates for new or altered kitchens. A ducted extractor that vents outside is the most effective, while recirculating hoods filter the air and return it to the room. We check whether a duct can reach an outside wall and recommend a hood that suits your hob and room size.
