Kitchen replacement programmes in Northern Ireland
Kitchen replacement programmes in Northern Ireland succeed or fail on resident liaison. We plan each home so the kitchen is out of use for as short a time as possible.
We take on kitchen replacement for social landlords across Northern Ireland: the Housing Executive, housing associations and supported housing providers in all 11 council areas, to the rules that apply in Northern Ireland.

Which rules apply in Northern Ireland?
Northern Ireland has its own asbestos regulations, the Control of Asbestos Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012, enforced by HSENI. Asbestos information is checked before intrusive work, and licensed work is carried out only by licensed contractors.
What does it cost in Northern Ireland?
Our guide range for a kitchen in a replacement programme in Northern Ireland is £4,500–£9,000 per kitchen. That is the UK range of £5,000–£10,000 (derived from published totals) adjusted by a regional cost factor of 0.90 (our own estimate); figures are before VAT where the source states it. Every job is priced after survey; specification, access and the condition of the homes will move the figure.
How do we deliver it?
A resident liaison officer visits before the survey, explains the programme and stays in touch until handover. Most complaints on kitchen programmes come from poor communication, not poor workmanship.

How long is each kitchen out of action?
It depends on the scope and whether electrics or the layout change. We confirm the duration for each home before starting and plan to keep it as short as possible.

We check your asbestos register before strip-out. Any work needing a licensed contractor is arranged before we start.
