Kitchen Refurbishments for Maidstone homes
Why Maidstone kitchen refurbishments briefs are different
We focus Maidstone refurbishments on door, worktop and tiling replacement, keeping existing carcasses where they're sound. That's the right scope for most local briefs and saves 30–40% versus full replacement.
Maidstone's stock runs from Allington and Bearsted's interwar semis to large detached homes around Loose and Boxley, plus dense Victorian terracing in the town centre.
Local considerations
Maidstone Borough Council is generally efficient, but the South East area (around Loose and Tovil) sits in an AONB with stricter design controls.
Chalk and clay alternating across the borough means an early soil report often saves significant money on foundation design — we typically commission one with our quote.
Refurbishments suffer most when sub-trades are sequenced badly — we keep all trades on our payroll so there's no finger-pointing over delays.
What Maidstone clients ask for
Many local kitchens are 15–25 years old and the buyer wants to know whether to refurb the carcasses or strip out entirely; we give an honest assessment at the first visit.
Recent local project

FAQs
Kitchen Refurbishments in Maidstone — frequently asked
Will the refurbishment look new?
Yes — new fronts, worktops and tiling read as complete replacement.
Can you swap appliances at the same time?
Yes — appliance swaps go in during the same install.
Can you remove a wall to open the kitchen to the dining room?
Yes — structural opening with steel beam, building control sign-off and making-good are all in-house. We commission engineer calcs as part of the quote.
Will you move plumbing and electrics for a new layout?
Yes — re-routing waste, water feeds, gas and electrics is standard scope. We coordinate first-fix before plastering so finishes go on flat walls.
Do 1930s Maidstone semis suit a two-storey side extension?
Very often, yes. The typical Allington and Bearsted semi has a driveway to one side and a simple roof, so a two-storey side addition with a set-back front wall usually satisfies Maidstone Borough Council.
Do you handle planning applications for Maidstone properties?
Yes — we submit planning and building regs applications direct with the Maidstone Borough Council, including pre-application meetings, neighbour consultations and lawful development certificates where relevant.
