Bathroom refit - superb from start to finish

7 February 2025

We chose Luke and his team to refurbish our bathroom as we liked his practical approach and obvious experience. He quoted promptly, was very competitive and listened to exactly what I wanted. He had held back some short availability which we were able to take advantage of which was a big bonus for us.

Luke kept in contact, came precisely when he said he would and managed his contractors entirely (they were all excellent too). The work was undertaken efficiently, to a very high standard and everyone was respectful of our home. I am notoriously difficult to please and I am delighted!

Thank you once again.

Attention to detail and quality workmanship

7 February 2025

From the first contact with Luke we were impressed by his friendliness and professionalism. Following the kitchen design stage he was able to arrange a fitting week only 6 weeks away which suited us. Luke and his team worked very hard right through the 5 days of fitting and they were always highly respectful of our property putting down extensive floor coverings to protect our existing hardwood floor. Their work was of the highest standard and Luke returned the following week to ensure that a few outstanding tasks were completed. I would highly recommend LCH Carpentry for the above reasons and the fact that the price for the job was very competitive

Kitchen Fitting FAQ’s

Which Is The Most Efficient Kitchen Design Layout?

Since the 1940s, the “kitchen triangle” has been a design principle used to organise kitchen layout, and it continues to be effective today. It is simply based on the kitchen sink, refrigerator, and cooker—the three main work locations.

The idea is that these should be arranged in a triangle so that you can easily move from one to the other. The ideal triangle’s sides should be at least four feet long and no more than nine feet long.

The concept of “zoning” has been incorporated into contemporary kitchen design with the idea that the kitchen should be split into zones for various everyday tasks, such as coffee preparation, meal preparation, and other similar tasks.

How can I choose a good kitchen fitter?

  1. Give importance to experience just as much as credentials.
  2. Ensure that you feel comfortable when communicating with them.
  3. Obtain estimates that include every detail.
  4. Agree a payment plan.
  5. Verify their knowledge with the building regs.
  6. Make certain that there are follow-ups after the installation is complete. 

What is the typical Kitchen installation process?

  1. Choose your new kitchen
  2. Old Kitchen Removal
  3. Make sure that your kitchen’s walls are prepared.
  4. Kitchen Lighting and Ceiling
  5. Installation of Kitchen Electrics and Gas
  6. The Process of Choosing and Laying the new Kitchen Flooring
  7. Installation of the Main Kitchen
  8. Final kitchen gas and electrical installation work
  9. Installation of Wall Tiles, Kitchen Splash-backs and finishing trims
  10. Final painting & cosmetic finishing completion

How long does it take to install a kitchen?

Fitting a new kitchen typically takes between one and four weeks.

However, this is entirely dependent on the amount of work required. It could take around a week to replace an existing kitchen with the same layout and appliance placement, provided that no new flooring or décor is required.

Should the kitchen flooring be completed prior to installation?

It is entirely up to you to make this choice. The best solution would be to lay the floor first, although care needs to be taken while installing the new kitchen to not harm the floor.

A decent job would be to tile first. Even though the entire floor won’t be on display, sealing it will make cleaning simpler and help reduce dust. Additionally, it will aid in protecting the subfloor in the event of water leaks.

Will you as a Kitchen Fitter take on the Electrics & gas installation work needed?

Since the vast majority of kitchen fitters are carpenters or joiners by trade, we do not normally possess the appropriate credentials for the electrical and gas aspects of the kitchen installation, so we will typically have a plumber, a gas technician, and an electrician who we work closely with on a regular basis. As your kitchen fitter, we will work on the installation along side them, and other traders should they be needed, throughout the project.
