The kitchen is the heart of the home, and in Wanstead’s period and 1930s homes it deserves better than a like-for-like swap. We design and install kitchens properly — including the structural work, plumbing, electrics and plastering that most kitchen fitters can’t touch.

We’re based in Walthamstow and work across Wanstead (E11) every week — design, structural work, plumbing, electrics, plastering and finishing, all managed in-house under one fixed price agreed up front.

Kitchen projects for Redbridge homes

Most kitchen fitters are joiners. We’re builders first — which matters here, because the best kitchen projects in these homes are structural:

  • Knock-throughs on Victorian/Edwardian terraces — removing the wall between the rear reception room and the galley kitchen (steel beam, structural calculations, Building Control sign-off) to create the open-plan kitchen-diner. Often paired with a side-return extension.
  • Large kitchen-diners on 1930s semis — bigger footprints suit islands, full dining sets and utility rooms; often combined with a rear extension.
  • Luxury kitchens in detached homes — the Monkhams-area standard: islands, quartz worktops, bi-fold doors to the garden, premium appliances.
  • All the brands — we supply and install Howdens, Wren, DIY Kitchens, Wickes, Magnet and Benchmarx. See our kitchens page for the full brand line-up.

Local to Wanstead, not just working in it

Our yard is in Walthamstow, a short drive from Wanstead High Street. That matters: site visits happen fast, materials come from local suppliers, and if anything needs attention after the build, we’re round the corner — not across London.

Wanstead is one of East London’s most village-like suburbs — the independent shops and monthly farmers’ market on the High Street, Christchurch Green, the lakes and woodland of Wanstead Park, and the open grassland of Wanstead Flats with its famous starling murmurations.

We cover the whole E11 postcode: Wanstead Village, Aldersbrook, Bushwood, Snaresbrook, New Wanstead and the Nightingale Estate.

Do I need permission for a new kitchen?

Internal kitchen refits never need planning permission. Knock-throughs involving load-bearing walls need Building Control approval (and usually a steel) — a building-regulations matter, not a planning one — and we handle the structural calculations and sign-off. Work in flats needs freeholder consent. If you’re unsure what’s load-bearing, that’s exactly what the free site visit is for.

For the full picture of how we work — survey, design, approvals, build and handover — see our kitchens page.

Kitchens in Wanstead — FAQs

Can you remove the wall between my kitchen and dining room?

Usually yes — we install the steel beam, handle the structural calculations and get Building Control sign-off. It’s the single most transformative kitchen project in period terraces.

Which kitchen brands do you install?

Howdens, Wren, DIY Kitchens, Wickes, Magnet and Benchmarx — or any kitchen you’ve already bought. If the units exist, we can fit them.

How much does a new kitchen cost?

It depends on the units, worktops, appliances and any structural work. Call 07772017237 for a fixed quote after a free site visit.

How long does a kitchen installation take?

A straightforward refit takes 2–3 weeks; knock-throughs and extensions add time. We programme everything so you’re never without a working kitchen longer than necessary.
