The process

How kitchen renovation is scoped in Acton

  1. Photograph the Acton kitchen thoroughly

    Capture every elevation, ceiling, extract hood or grille, appliance run and the materials path for long joinery at the W3 unit.

  2. Submit a private kitchen brief

    Include preferred layout, appliance list with sizes and fuel type, supply-and-fit or fit-only preference, occupancy notes and the full unit postcode for Acton.

  3. Triage fabric, services, extract and access

    We review layout change, first-fix plumbing and electrics, extract routes and access on the actual property type in Acton before anyone is programmed.

  4. Receive a written kitchen scope

    Strip-out, first fix, joinery, worktops, tiling and appliances (if included) are itemised so layout change is not confused with a cosmetic refit in Acton.

  5. Programme first fix before joinery fit

    Accepted works sequence services and extract before carcasses and worktops, with freeholder or occupancy constraints for Acton written into the method.

  6. Fit-out, decoration and snagging

    Joinery, worktops, tiling and decoration complete the kitchen renovation package under written terms for the Acton unit — delivered in-house, not via a third-party marketplace.
