Kitchen fitting in Johnstone and Renfrewshire
Johnstone is our home base, so Renfrewshire customers are closest to us, from Elderslie and Kilbarchan to Paisley, Renfrew, Linwood, Houston, Bridge of Weir and Erskine. IKEA Glasgow at Braehead is close by too, which helps when an IKEA order is short of a panel or a pack of hinges on fitting day. Building warrants for structural kitchen work here are issued by Renfrewshire Council.
Kitchen fitting in Glasgow
We fit kitchens across the whole of the city, and the type of home changes the job more than the postcode does.
West End and Southside tenements
Much of the West End and the Southside is made up of sandstone tenements, from Partick and Hyndland to Shawlands, Strathbungo and Battlefield. Tenement kitchens usually mean uneven walls, high ceilings and worktops carried up a common stair, so we scribe, level and plan worktop joints before delivery. Read about tenement kitchen fitting.
City Centre, East End and North
Homes in the City Centre and Merchant City are mostly flats, where parking, lifts and building access shape the plan as much as the kitchen does. Dennistoun, Shettleston and Maryhill have everything from tenement flats to family houses, and we fit kitchens in both. Building warrants anywhere in the city are issued by Glasgow City Council.
Kitchen fitting south and east of Glasgow
The towns south and east of the city have more houses with room for bigger kitchens, islands and open-plan layouts.
East Renfrewshire
Newton Mearns, Giffnock, Clarkston and Barrhead are mostly family houses, with room for larger kitchens, islands and open-plan layouts. That often makes supply and fit or a full kitchen renovation the better choice here. Building warrants here are issued by East Renfrewshire Council.
South Lanarkshire
We fit kitchens in Rutherglen, Cambuslang and East Kilbride. East Kilbride was Scotland's first post-war new town, so many of its homes share similar layouts, which makes like-for-like kitchen replacements quick to plan. Building warrants here are issued by South Lanarkshire Council.
Kitchen fitting north of Glasgow
We fit kitchens in Bearsden, Milngavie and Bishopbriggs in East Dunbartonshire, where many homes are villas, bungalows and family houses with larger kitchens. If you're planning to open your kitchen into a dining room, removing a load-bearing wall needs a building warrant from East Dunbartonshire Council.
Which council handles building warrants in your area?
You need a building warrant from your local council before structural kitchen work, such as removing a load-bearing wall. Replacing a kitchen like for like doesn't need one. This table shows which council covers each area.
