Kitchen Fitting

The Service

Kitchens fitted to a joiner’s standard

A kitchen is the biggest joinery job in most homes — dozens of units, worktops and appliances that all have to line up perfectly. The fit is what separates a flat-pack look from a fitted-furniture finish.

PRM Carpentry installs kitchens across Hampshire with a carpenter’s eye for level, plumb and scribe — cabinets hung dead true, doors aligned, end panels and cornice mitred cleanly, and worktops templated to fit. We work tidily and hand back a kitchen ready to use.

Supplied-and-fit or fitting your own units, from a galley refresh to a full open-plan island kitchen, you get a kitchen that looks and feels properly built-in.

In Detail

Kitchen fitting in Hampshire, explained

A new kitchen is one of the biggest investments you will make in your home, and the quality of the fit makes as much difference as the units themselves. A good fitter makes sure every cabinet is level and secure, doors and drawers line up with even gaps, worktop joints are tight and the trims finish the job cleanly. A poor fit shows within weeks, with doors that drift out of line and worktops that move.

PRM Carpentry fits kitchens across Hampshire, including Southampton, Winchester, Eastleigh and Chandler's Ford. We fit both flat-pack and rigid units from all the main suppliers, as well as bespoke and handmade kitchens. Because we are carpenters first, we are comfortable dealing with out-of-level floors and walls that are not square, which is common in older Hampshire homes.

Most kitchens take somewhere between four and eight working days for the carpentry, depending on the size, the number of tall units and the worktop material. The whole project usually runs longer because plumbers, electricians and sometimes plasterers are involved. Our guide how long does it take to fit a kitchen? sets out a realistic timeline, and how to prepare your home for a kitchen fit helps you get ready.

On cost, labour for a straightforward mid-sized kitchen often falls somewhere between £1,500 and £3,500, but every job differs. Islands, tall housings, solid timber or stone worktops and extra trims all add time. We give a clear, fixed quote after a survey so you know exactly what is included. See kitchen fitting costs and timelines for more detail.

FAQs

kitchen fitting FAQs

How much does it cost to have a kitchen fitted in Hampshire?

As a rough guide, labour for a straightforward mid-sized kitchen often falls between £1,500 and £3,500. Larger kitchens, islands, tall units and solid worktops push it higher. Every job differs, so we give a fixed quote after a free survey.

How long does it take to fit a kitchen?

The carpentry usually takes around four to eight working days. The overall project is often two to four weeks once plumbing, electrics, plastering and stone worktop templating are included.

Do you fit kitchens bought from DIY stores and online suppliers?

Yes. We fit flat-pack and rigid kitchens from all the main suppliers, as well as bespoke kitchens. It helps to check deliveries as soon as they arrive so any missing parts can be reordered early.

Do you price kitchen fitting per unit?

Some fitters do, but per-unit prices often leave out worktops, cut-outs, trims and removal of the old kitchen. We prefer to quote a fixed price for the whole job so there are no surprises.

Can you arrange the plumber and electrician?

We can work alongside your own trades, or recommend local trades we work with. Just let us know when you ask for a quote.
