Bishopton, Renfrewshire
Kitchen fitting in Bishopton
Bishopton has two kinds of kitchen. There are the new-build kitchens across Dargavel, which are often only a few years old but were specified to a developer's budget, and the kitchens in the older houses around the original village, which tend to need a full refit.
Upgrading a new-build kitchen
A lot of Dargavel owners are not unhappy with the size or shape of their kitchen, just the quality. The usual upgrades are a better worktop, more drawers, taller wall units, an island or breakfast bar where the room allows, and proper lighting under the units. Because the room and services are modern, the work is quick and clean.
Warranty and what to check first
If your house is still within its new-build warranty period, it is worth checking what the warranty says about alterations before changing the kitchen. Replacing units and worktops rarely causes an issue, but moving plumbing or electrics is worth confirming first.
Older homes in the village
In the older houses the kitchen is more likely to need everything done at once: new units, a better layout, and the electrics and plumbing updated behind them. We bring in and manage the other trades so it runs as one job.
