Why a Survey Matters in Kenilworth
Kenilworth is one of Warwickshire's most desirable towns, with excellent schools, a historic castle, and a wealth of large detached family homes. Our kitchen installation teams serve Kenilworth and its surrounding villages regularly, with a particular focus on high-specification projects befitting the area's premium property market. The range of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis, and larger detached family homes found across Kenilworth means that no two kitchen projects are identical. Ceiling heights vary between periods of construction, older properties may have walls that are not perfectly square, and plumbing or gas connections are not always in the positions a designer's plan assumes. A pre-installation survey is our way of catching these realities before work begins.
Carrying out a survey means the written quote we issue is based on what is actually in your kitchen, not what the retailer's plan suggests. This protects you from unexpected cost increases mid-project and gives our fitting team the information they need to plan the installation properly. Across Kenilworth, we regularly find small discrepancies between plans and rooms that, left unaddressed, would cause problems on installation day — the survey ensures none of those issues reach you.
What the Survey Covers
- Room vs Plan Check
We compare your kitchen designer's plan with the actual room dimensions in your Kenilworth home. Walls out of square, ceiling variations, and unexpected structural elements are identified before work begins.
- Service Positions
We confirm the location of existing plumbing, electrical sockets, and gas connections, and establish where new appliance connections will be positioned.
- Levels & Floor Assessment
Floors are rarely perfectly level. We measure the floor plane and note any gradients that will require packing or adjustment during cabinet installation.
- Wall Condition
We check the condition and construction of walls where units and tall cabinets will be fixed, identifying any areas that may need remedial work before fitting.
- Access Routes
We assess all access routes into the kitchen — corridors, doorways, staircases — and flag anything that could affect delivery or installation logistics.
- Appliance Positions
All integrated and freestanding appliance positions are confirmed and cross-referenced with the available service connections to ensure the plan is achievable.
- Risk & Scope Identification
Potential complications such as chimney breasts, uneven alcoves, or non-standard ceiling heights are flagged and factored transparently into your installation quote.
- Accurate Quote Preparation
Everything observed during the survey feeds directly into your written, itemised quote — so the price you are given accurately reflects the full scope of the work.
The Survey Fee — £195 Credited Back
The £195 survey fee is charged at the time of booking your survey appointment. It covers the specialist time spent visiting your Kenilworth home, measuring the room, reviewing your kitchen plan, and preparing your written survey report and installation quote.
The credit is applied when you confirm your installation date by paying your booking deposit. At that point, the full £195 is deducted from your installation balance — so the survey costs you nothing if you proceed. If you decide not to go ahead after the survey, the fee is not returned, as it covers the time already invested in your project.

Frequently Asked Questions
Kitchen plans from retailers are based on measurements you or a store designer provided — they are a starting point, not a guarantee everything will fit perfectly. A survey lets us identify discrepancies, structural issues, and service positions before installation day, so there are no surprises and your quote is accurate.
A typical survey visit takes between 45 minutes and 90 minutes, depending on kitchen size and how much discussion is needed. We will advise an estimated visit time when we confirm your appointment.
Yes — we require a survey visit before issuing a full written installation quote. A survey visit to a Kenilworth property is booked directly via this page or by calling 07399 651836. We can provide a broad indicative estimate beforehand, but our fixed-price quote is issued after the survey only.
This is precisely what the survey is designed to find. If dimensions are wrong, services are in unexpected positions, or there are structural elements the plan does not account for, we identify these during the survey and either advise you to update the plan with your retailer or adjust our installation approach accordingly — before work begins.
