Kitchen Fitters in Solihull

Solihull kitchens range from period sculleries in Knowle and Dorridge detached homes to open-plan living spaces in modern Dickens Heath builds. We adapt our approach to the space, the building's structure and the specification you want. Whether it's a simple refresh or a complete structural reconfiguration, we manage it as one team.

Many Solihull kitchens sit in older properties with quirky layouts, load-bearing walls, and uneven floors. We survey carefully, identify what can move and what cannot, advise on electrics and plumbing routes, and design a functional, beautiful space within the building's real constraints. Structural walls require engineer calcs and Building Regulations approval; we arrange that.

We source kitchens from established makers, specify premium worktops (granite, quartz, solid timber), manage full electrics and plumbing to Part P and Water Regulations, and finish with tiling, flooring, lighting and decoration. Kitchen fitters work alongside our plastering, flooring and electrical teams.

What We Do

Kitchen work in Solihull

Supply-and-fit kitchens

We specify bespoke cabinetry, handle delivery, install bases and tall units, fit doors and drawers, and ensure every fitting works smoothly. We align with the room and other fixtures, adjust for out-of-square walls and uneven floors, and finish trim and beading.

Structural work & knock-throughs

Many Solihull kitchens benefit from opening up to a dining or living area. Load-bearing walls require an engineer to design a beam or lintel; we arrange structural calcs, gain Building Regulations approval and fit the beam and supporting posts. Non-load-bearing walls are removed and the ceiling finished flush.

Premium worktops

Granite, quartz, solid oak and marble worktops are measured, fabricated off-site and installed with proper sealing and finish. We run plumbing through or alongside the top, edge grain and create a seamless join with splashbacks.

Islands, breakfast bars and peninsulas

Islands and breakfast bars require plumbing and electrics routed underneath, proper structural support, and often additional insulation or services. We design layout, specify materials and manage full build and finish.

Electrics & plumbing (Part P compliant)

Full kitchen rewire, new circuits for appliances, socket and pendant positions, under-cabinet and plinth lighting, cooker hood electrics and extractor fans. Plumbing for sink, dishwasher, fridge, and future water features. All work to Part P Building Regulations.

Appliances & integrated fittings

We fit built-in ovens, hobs, extractor hoods, dishwashers, fridge-freezers and microwave cabinets. All connections and final commissioning included.

Good to Know

The practical and planning side, handled as part of the job.

Period property layouts

Kitchens in period properties often have restricted space, solid walls, and awkward access. We design around real constraints, preserve period features if needed (partition walls, original beams), and integrate modern services sympathetically.

Service routing & plumbing

Older Solihull properties may have limited pipe routes and no underfloor voids. We plan electrics and plumbing carefully, use surface-mounted options where needed, and coordinate with existing services to avoid damage.

Questions & Answers

Kitchen Fitters in Solihull: common questions

How long does a kitchen fit take?+

A straightforward supply-and-fit in an existing layout takes 2-3 weeks. Structural work, replumbing and extensive decoration can take 4-6 weeks. We plan the schedule with you and discuss dependencies (plastering, flooring, decoration) upfront.

Can you remove a wall between the kitchen and lounge?+

Yes, if the wall is not load-bearing. We get a structural engineer to assess and design a beam if needed. The engineer's calcs are submitted to Building Control or an approved inspector for approval, then we fit the beam and finishes. Load-bearing wall removal takes 2-4 weeks in total.

What worktops would you recommend for a Solihull kitchen?+

It depends on your budget and use. Quartz is durable, low-maintenance and works in any style. Granite is classic and suits period properties. Solid timber ages beautifully but needs regular oiling. We show samples and advise at the quote stage.

How much will a new kitchen cost?+

Kitchen cost depends on the units, worktop, appliances, and structural work. A simple refresh is different from a full strip and rebuild with a knock-through. We visit, discuss your brief and provide a fixed-price quote.
