Find a kitchen fitter near you
Worktops and refreshes
New worktops in laminate, wood or stone, and replacement doors and drawer fronts for a quicker update.
Full kitchen refits
Strip-out, layout changes, plumbing and electrics, tiling, plastering and finishing.
A new kitchen brings several trades into one room. Units and worktops are carpentry, but most jobs also involve plumbing, electrics and often gas, plus tiling and plastering. A good kitchen fitter either handles these or brings in the right people, and tells you clearly who is doing what.
Trade Pilot helps you find a kitchen fitter near you without phoning round. Describe your job once, including whether you’ve already bought the kitchen, and up to 3 vetted fitters who cover your postcode can quote. Reviews on Trade Pilot come from real, invoiced jobs, so you can see how a fitter has handled work like yours.
To get useful quotes, share the kitchen plan or supplier’s drawings if you have them, photos of the room as it is now, and whether the sink, cooker or boiler will move. Moving services and knocking through walls add time and cost, so it helps to say early.
When quotes arrive, check they’re pricing the same thing. Fitting only, with you supplying units and appliances, is priced very differently from a supplied-and-fitted kitchen. Ask whether removing the old kitchen, disposal, worktop templating, tiling, plastering and decorating are included. If you’re knocking through a wall to open up the kitchen, find out whether it’s load-bearing before anything else is agreed.
In a flat, check your lease before you start, as many need the freeholder’s consent for a new kitchen.
Posting a job is free, and you don’t have to accept any quote.

Many fitters do the basic plumbing themselves. Electrical work should be done and certified by a registered electrician, and any gas connection must be made by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Ask each fitter who will do these parts.
A straightforward like-for-like fit usually takes one to two weeks. Moving services, knocking through walls, stone worktops that need templating, and plastering all add time.
Buying it yourself gives you more choice. A supplied-and-fitted kitchen puts one person in charge of missing or damaged parts. Tell fitters which you prefer so the quotes are comparable.
Check your lease. Many leases need consent from the freeholder or management company, especially if you’re moving plumbing or changing the layout.
