Kitchens in Anniesland, Jordanhill and Knightswood: what we usually find
Tenement flats (Anniesland Cross, Hyndland, Broomhill, Crow Road)
Red and blond sandstone tenements with the kitchen at the back, often small and separated from the living room by a load-bearing wall. Opening it up is the most requested job: steel beam, building warrant from Glasgow City Council, factor notified. Hyndland and parts of Broomhill are in a conservation area — that affects external changes, not an internal kitchen. We keep cornicing where it survives and deal with the original floorboards properly before new flooring goes down.
1930s cottage flats and semis (Knightswood, Scotstoun, Temple)
Knightswood’s four-in-a-block cottage flats have compact kitchens with a back door and a larder; the standard improvement is taking the larder into the kitchen and running units along the back wall with a window over the sink. Upper flats need pipework planned around the flat below. Semis in Scotstoun and Temple usually get the kitchen-diner treatment with the dining-room wall removed.
Villas and larger houses (Jordanhill, Hyndland, Broomhill Drive)
Big kitchens, often in the original scullery position at the back of the house, with high ceilings and a side return that is sometimes extended into. Islands, two-tone cabinetry, quartz worktops and integrated appliances; more electrical circuits than a standard kitchen and often a utility room carved out at the same time.
What a kitchen renovation in Anniesland includes
- Strip-out and disposal of the old kitchen, tiles and flooring
- Structural work where the layout changes — wall removal with steel, new openings, chimney breast removal — with drawings and the building warrant handled by us
- First-fix plumbing and electrics: moving the sink, new circuits for the hob, oven and appliances, under-cabinet lighting, extractor ducting
- Plastering — skim, dot-and-dab or full re-board on old lath-and-plaster
- Kitchen fitting: units, worktops (laminate, quartz, granite), splashback tiling, sink and taps, appliance connection
- Flooring and decoration so you get a finished room, not a fitted kitchen in a building site
The kitchen units and appliances are supplied by you — from Wren, Howdens, IKEA, B&Q or Magnet — or we can arrange them through Wren or Howdens on your behalf. Our price covers labour and building materials: plaster, plasterboard, pipework, cable, timber, adhesives, fixings. Everything is itemised line by line, so you see exactly what each part costs.

| Fitting only (you supply units, no building work) | £2,500 – £4,500 |
Kitchen units and appliances are on top — usually £3,000–£12,000 depending on brand and size, often about as much again as the building work. A full breakdown of what drives the price up or down is in our kitchen renovation cost guide.
How the job runs
- Site visit — we measure, check walls, services and floor, and talk through the layout
- Fixed itemised quote within 48 hours, with a start date
- Drawings and warrant if a wall is coming down (4–8 weeks with the council — we start the paperwork straight away)
- On site: strip-out → structural → first fix → plaster → flooring → units and worktops → tiling and decoration. A straightforward refit is 2–3 weeks; an open-plan knock-through 4–6 weeks
- Sign-off: walk-round together, snagging, completion certificate where there was a warrant — then the final payment
Recent kitchens in the West End
- Glasgow West End — tenement kitchen relocated, new services run, structural opening formed and finished with plaster and decoration.
- Clarkston — open-plan kitchen with breakfast peninsula, navy Shaker units and herringbone flooring, plumbing and electrics rerouted for the new layout.

Frequently asked questions
From £7,000 for labour and building materials with the units supplied by you. A like-for-like refit is typically £7,000–£9,500; moving the sink or hob and replastering £9,000–£13,000; a tenement or semi knock-through with steel £14,000–£22,000. Fitting only from £2,500.
Yes. The wall between kitchen and living room is normally load-bearing, so it needs a steel beam, a structural engineer’s design and a building warrant from Glasgow City Council. We handle all of it and notify the factor.
Not for internal work. Conservation Area status controls external changes — windows, doors, extensions. A kitchen refit or an internal wall removal needs a building warrant but not planning permission.
We set up a temporary kitchen point (sink and sockets) where we can. A refit is 2–3 weeks on site; a knock-through 4–6 weeks.
Yes — upper and lower flats. Pipework for the upper flat is planned so nothing new runs through the ceiling of the flat below without their agreement.
