- π§Ή removal of the existing kitchen;
- ποΈ structural alterations;
- π§± load-bearing wall removal;
- π© RSJ and steel beam installation;
- π§ plumbing alterations;
- β‘ electrical upgrades;
- π§± plastering and wall preparation;

- π½οΈ professional kitchen installation;
- πͺ¨ worktop coordination;
- π‘ lighting;

Whether you are updating an existing kitchen or creating a completely new open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, MK Refurbishment London Ltd can coordinate the project from initial strip-out through to the finished room.
π οΈ Complete Kitchen Refurbishment South London
A professional Kitchen Refurbishment South London project should consider the whole room rather than simply replacing the kitchen units.
Older kitchens may contain outdated plumbing, insufficient electrical supplies, damaged plaster, uneven floors or layouts that no longer suit modern family life.
Our complete kitchen refurbishment service can include:
- π§Ή kitchen strip-out;
- π checking the existing layout;
- ποΈ structural alterations;
- π§ plumbing preparation;
- β‘ electrical installation;
- π§± plastering;
- π floor preparation;
- β¨οΈ underfloor heating;
- π½οΈ kitchen fitting;
- πͺ¨ worktops;
- π§± splashbacks;
- πͺ΅ flooring;
- π‘ lighting;
- π¨ decorating.
This allows the different stages to be coordinated as one refurbishment rather than several unrelated jobs.
β¨ Kitchen Renovation South London
A Kitchen Renovation South London project gives homeowners the opportunity to improve not only the appearance of the kitchen but also the way the space functions.
A renovation can improve:
- π½οΈ kitchen layout;
- ποΈ storage capacity;
- ποΈ island space;
- π‘ lighting;
- π electrical provision;
- π§ plumbing;
- πͺ΅ flooring;
- πΏ connection with the garden;
- πͺ dining space;
- ποΈ family living space.
In many South London properties, the biggest improvement comes from reconsidering the relationship between the kitchen and adjoining dining or reception rooms.
This is where our experience in both structural work and kitchen refurbishment becomes particularly useful.
ποΈ Open-Plan Kitchen Renovation South London
Open-plan kitchens are particularly popular in Victorian and Edwardian properties across South London.
Traditional houses were often designed with separate kitchens, dining rooms and reception spaces.
Modern homeowners frequently prefer a larger room combining:
- π½οΈ kitchen;
- ποΈ kitchen island;
- πͺ dining area;
- ποΈ family living space;
- βοΈ improved natural light;
- πΏ access to the garden.
Creating this type of layout can require significant structural work before the new kitchen installation begins.
π§± Load-Bearing Wall Removal for Kitchen Renovations
Removing the wall between a kitchen and dining room is one of the most common alterations involved in an open-plan kitchen refurbishment.
If the wall is load-bearing, the structure above needs to be properly supported.
Depending on the structural engineer’s design, this can involve:
- π© RSJ steel beams;
- ποΈ Universal Beams;
- π§± padstones;
- ποΈ steel columns;
- π© structural plates;
- ποΈ goalpost frames;
- ποΈ portal frames.
Structural alterations should follow the relevant engineer’s drawings and calculations.
π© RSJ Installation for Open-Plan Kitchens
MK Refurbishment London Ltd can undertake structural steel installation as part of suitable kitchen refurbishment projects.
This means the project can progress through a logical sequence:
ποΈ Structural Work β β‘ Electrics β π§ Plumbing β π§± Plastering β πͺ΅ Flooring β π½οΈ Kitchen Installation β π¨ Decoration
Coordinating these stages helps reduce delays and problems between different parts of the renovation.
β Kitchen Extensions & Larger Renovations
Sometimes the existing kitchen simply does not provide enough space for the layout the homeowner wants.
A rear, side-return or wraparound extension can create additional space for a much larger kitchen and living area.
Kitchen extension projects can incorporate:
- π rear extensions;
- βοΈ side-return extensions;
- π wraparound extensions;
- ποΈ structural openings;
- ποΈ large kitchen islands;
- πͺ sliding or bifold doors;
- βοΈ rooflights;
- β¨οΈ underfloor heating;
- πͺ΅ continuous flooring;
- π½οΈ complete kitchen installation.
The new extension and existing property should be planned together so that floor levels, structural openings, services and finishes work as one space.
ποΈ Kitchen Refurbishment for Victorian & Period Homes
Victorian and period homes form an important part of our work across South London.
Older kitchens can contain:
- π§± traditional masonry;
- πͺ΅ timber floors;
- π uneven walls;
- π irregular floor levels;
- π§ historic plumbing;
- β‘ older electrical installations;
- π₯ chimney structures;
- ποΈ previous alterations;
- π§± layers of previous repairs.
A successful renovation needs to respond to the actual property rather than assuming every wall and floor is perfectly level.
Our broader refurbishment and structural experience is particularly valuable where hidden building issues need to be resolved before the new kitchen is installed.
π½οΈ Professional Kitchen Fitting & Installation
Once structural work and preparation are complete, the kitchen can be professionally installed.
We work with kitchens supplied by established manufacturers and specialist suppliers, including suitable projects using:
- π½οΈ Howdens;
- π½οΈ Wren;
- π½οΈ Magnet;
- π½οΈ Wickes;
- β¨ specialist kitchen suppliers;
- πͺ bespoke kitchen manufacturers.
Kitchen installation can include:
- ποΈ base and wall units;
- ποΈ kitchen islands;
- πͺ tall cabinets;
- πͺ panels and fillers;
- π§± plinths;
- π° sinks and taps;
- πͺ¨ worktop coordination;
- π‘ integrated lighting;
- π½οΈ appliance integration.
Accurate preparation before fitting helps achieve straighter lines, consistent gaps and a more professional finished kitchen.
β‘ Kitchen Plumbing, Electrical Work & Heating
Modern kitchen renovations require careful coordination of building services.
β‘ Electrical Work
Electrical work can include:
- ovens;
- induction hobs;
- sockets;
- kitchen island supplies;
- LED lighting;
- pendant lighting;
- refrigeration;
- extractor systems.
π§ Plumbing
Plumbing can include:
- kitchen sinks;
- dishwashers;
- water supplies;
- waste pipes;
- relocated services;
- fridge water connections.
β¨οΈ Heating
Kitchen renovations may also incorporate:
- underfloor heating;
- radiator relocation;
- heating pipework alterations.
These services should be planned before kitchen cabinets and finished surfaces are installed.
πͺ¨ Worktops, Flooring & Kitchen Finishing
The final quality of a kitchen refurbishment depends heavily on the finishing details.
Projects can incorporate:
- πͺ¨ quartz worktops;
- πͺ¨ granite;
- πͺ¨ natural stone;
- πͺ΅ engineered timber flooring;
- β»οΈ porcelain flooring;
- π§± tiled splashbacks;
- π‘ integrated lighting;
- πͺ bespoke carpentry;
- π¨ professional decoration.
Worktop templates, finished floor levels, appliances, sinks and wall finishes all need to be coordinated with the kitchen installation.

Important factors include:
