Painted Kitchen Installation in Reading

Yes, during the installation period you will not have access to a fully functioning kitchen, and you should plan meals and access to water accordingly. Most installations take between 3 and 10 days depending on size; we recommend setting up a temporary kitchen area with a kettle, microwave, and access to cold water in another room. We work as efficiently as possible to minimise the disruption period, and we will give you a clear daily progress update so you always know where the project stands.

You do not need to be present throughout the entire installation, but we do ask that a responsible adult is available at the start of each day to grant access and at the end of each day for a progress review. It is also important that someone is available to make decisions about any unforeseen issues that arise during the fit — for example, if a wall turns out to be in a different position to the plan, we may need guidance on how to proceed. We will always call ahead if we need to discuss anything urgently.

Before installation begins, please ensure the kitchen space is completely cleared of all personal items, food, and small appliances. The adjacent rooms that we will use as a working area should also be clear, and we ask that pets are kept away from the work area for safety reasons. If you have not already done so, please confirm your plumber and electrician bookings and share their contact details with us so we can co-ordinate the programme of works.

On the final day of installation, our lead fitter will carry out a full snagging walk-round with you, checking every door, drawer, hinge, and fitting for alignment, function, and finish. Any items that do not meet our standard will be adjusted or replaced on the spot where possible, or flagged for a follow-up visit if a replacement part is required. We ask you to sign off the completed installation only when you are fully satisfied, and we remain available to return for any warranty-related issues within the first twelve months.
