How it works
A kitchen installation or building project involves real disruption to your home. We keep that disruption as short and as manageable as possible by planning the work carefully before we start, keeping you informed at each stage and leaving the property clean and tidy as we go.
We visit your property, listen to what you want to achieve and take accurate measurements. We discuss your budget, timescales and any planning considerations. You receive a clear, written quote with no hidden extras before you decide anything.
Once you are happy to proceed, we agree a start date and set out a week-by-week schedule so you know exactly how long each phase will take. For kitchen and bathroom projects this includes the sequence of trades: stripping out, first fix, fitting, tiling, second fix and snagging.
We protect floors and adjacent rooms before work begins. You will see clear progress each day. We clean up at the end of each working day and keep access to the rest of your home as normal as possible throughout. You are kept informed of anything that affects the programme.
We walk through the completed job with you, address any snagging points and make sure you are completely satisfied before we consider the job finished. All work is left clean, safe and ready to use.

Common questions
Here are the questions we are most often asked by homeowners, landlords and letting agents before committing to a kitchen fitting or building project in Faversham and across Kent.
A straightforward fit-only kitchen installation typically takes three to five working days. A full supply and fit project that includes plumbing, tiling, new flooring and electrical connections usually takes one to two weeks. We give you a specific programme before work starts so you know which days you will be without a working kitchen and can plan accordingly.
Before we start, we protect floors and adjacent areas with dust sheets and hard floor protection. The kitchen or bathroom being worked on will be out of use during the installation, but we minimise the spread of dust and debris and tidy up at the end of each working day. We tell you in advance which services, such as water or electricity, will need to be isolated and for how long.
In most cases, internal kitchen and bathroom fitting work does not require planning permission. Home extensions and loft conversions may require planning consent depending on size, location and whether your property is listed or in a conservation area. We discuss this with you at the quotation stage and can advise you on whether building regulations sign-off is needed for structural or drainage work.
We agree the payment schedule with you before work begins and set it out clearly in writing. For most projects this involves a deposit on confirmation, a stage payment at an agreed milestone such as completion of first fix, and a final balance on satisfactory completion. We do not ask for large upfront sums and we never request full payment before the job is finished.
All tradesmen working under LH Building and Maintenance are fully insured and experienced across all trades. We cover Faversham, Canterbury, Sittingbourne, Whitstable, Herne Bay, Maidstone, Ashford and Folkestone. If you are outside these areas, call us and we will let you know whether we can help.
