FAQs
Kitchen Refacing in Sevenoaks: FAQs
Do you provide kitchen refacing across all of Sevenoaks?
Yes, we cover the TN13 postcode area in full, including Riverhead, Dunton Green, Weald, Bat & Ball, Kippington.
How do I know if my kitchen is suitable for refacing rather than a full replacement?
The key factor is the condition of the carcasses — if they're square, dry and free of damage or swelling (particularly around the sink and dishwasher), refacing is usually a viable option. We check this during the initial assessment.
Can the worktop be replaced as part of refacing?
Yes, replacing the worktop alongside the doors and fronts is common and often included in the same job — it's one of the changes that makes the biggest visual difference.
Does Green Belt designation affect extending a house in Sevenoaks?
Green Belt policy applies primarily to new buildings and significant additions that would be disproportionate to the original dwelling, rather than ruling out modest extensions. We assess this against your specific property and its planning history.
