Kitchen Renovations across Stockton Heath (WA4)
Blades Building — a Warrington-based Ltd company covering Stockton Heath and the wider Cheshire area. Rated 10/10 on Checkatrade across 36 reviews.
We do a lot of kitchen renovations in Stockton Heath. The pattern in WA4 tends to be full strip-out and refit in an existing footprint — often part of a wider layout change rather than a standalone job — and being a small Ltd company means the same team is on site from strip-out through to hand-over, not a rotating crew of subs.

What we typically specify for Stockton Heath jobs
Stockton Heath kitchen renovations — questions we're asked
Do you handle the electrics and gas?
We work with Part P registered electricians and Gas Safe engineers routinely — all certification issued at the end of the job.
Do you supply the kitchen or do I?
Either. Most customers buy directly from Howdens, Wren or Symphony and we install; if you'd rather we handle procurement we can do that too and pass on the trade pricing.
Can you move the sink to a different wall?
Yes — as long as the new run has enough fall to the soil stack. We'll flag any awkward runs at survey rather than mid-build.
Can you fit an island in a Stockton Heath home?
Yes — the constraint is usually not width, it's routing waste, water and power under the existing floor. Around Stockton Heath, where the housing stock is mostly edwardian villas, 1930s semis and larger detached homes, that's usually straightforward with a suspended floor and trickier on a solid slab.
How long is the house without a working kitchen in Stockton Heath?
A straight-swap refit in a typical Stockton Heath home is usually 2–3 weeks kitchen-out. If we're also knocking through or extending, plan 5–8 weeks and we'll help you rig a temporary kitchen in another room.
