A homeowner reached out to Norfolk Kitchen Installations with a clear objective: to upgrade their kitchen in Watton, Norfolk, before putting the property on the market. The client wanted a modern, stylish kitchen that would help the home stand out and achieve a higher sale price.
They had already purchased a Wren kitchen but needed a professional installation service that could deliver a high-quality finish quickly and efficiently, without disrupting other trades working on-site.
Wren Kitchen Installation in Watton: Adding Value Before Sale
Challenges and Client Requirements
The client’s old kitchen was dated, cramped, and lacked the modern appeal expected by potential buyers. As the property was being renovated to sell, every detail mattered, especially the kitchen, one of the most influential areas for buyers.
They needed a trusted local kitchen fitter in Watton who could:
-
Install the Wren kitchen precisely to specification.
-
Work efficiently to meet the renovation deadline.
-
Coordinate with other contractors (decorators, electricians, and plumbers).
-
Provide a finish that would enhance both the property’s value and saleability.
Expert Installation by Norfolk Kitchen Installations
Norfolk Kitchen Installations provided a comprehensive fitting service, managing all aspects of the kitchen installation from start to finish.
Step-by-Step Approach
Reviewed Wren plans and verified all measurements to ensure a seamless fit within the available space.
1. Pre-installation Assessment
The existing kitchen units and worktops were carefully removed, and the area prepared for installation. This included ensuring wall alignment and electrical point readiness for new appliances.
2. Removal & Preparation
-
Full fitting of base and wall units.
-
Integration of new appliances supplied by the client.
-
Installation of laminate worktops and matching splashbacks.
-
Finishing details such as end panels, pelmets, and kickboards for a professional, showroom-standard appearance.
3. Installation
Worked closely with electricians and decorators on-site to maintain the schedule and minimise downtime between tasks.
4. Collaboration with Other Trades
Why This Approach Worked
The project benefited from Matt’s 10+ years of experience fitting kitchens for brands like Wren, Howdens, and IKEA. His practical knowledge ensured fast installation without sacrificing precision, helping the client stay on budget and complete the renovation ahead of the estate agent’s deadline.
