Kitchen Fitters in Glasgow
Time-served kitchen fitters installing fitted kitchens across Glasgow — units, worktops, appliances and all the second-fix joinery that makes a kitchen feel properly finished. Free quotes, tidy team, and a finish that lasts.
Professional Kitchen Installation Across Glasgow
A kitchen is the single biggest joinery job most homes will ever have, and it is unforgiving of shortcuts. Units that are a few millimetres out of level show up in every door gap. A worktop scribed badly against a wonky tenement wall will annoy you every day for a decade. Getting it right is what we do.
AJ Joiners has been fitting kitchens across Glasgow for over 20 years. We work in everything from West End tenement flats with no square corners to new-build semis in Newton Mearns, and the standard is the same either way: level units, tight joints, doors that line up, and silicone lines you would be happy to look at up close.
Design and materials are handled in partnership with Howdens and Wren. You choose the kitchen, they supply it, and AJ Joiners takes care of the professional fitting once everything is confirmed. If you have already bought a kitchen elsewhere, that is no problem — we fit supplied kitchens too.
Every kitchen fitting quote is free, and we will tell you honestly if something in your plan will not work before you have paid for it rather than after.
What Our Kitchen Fitting Service Includes
Base & Wall Units
Units set out from a datum line, levelled, and fixed properly to the wall — not just to each other. Scribed to the floor and wall where the room is out of true.
Worktop Fitting
Laminate, solid wood and composite worktops cut, jointed and scribed on site. Mason's mitres on the corners, sealed cut edges, and cut-outs for sinks and hobs.
Appliance Installation
Integrated ovens, hobs, extractors, fridges and dishwashers fitted into their housings and levelled. Gas and electrical connections handled by the relevant certified trade.
Sinks, Taps & Plumbing
Sink and tap installation with waste and supply connected, tested and left leak-free. We coordinate with plumbers where a full re-run is needed.
Second-Fix Joinery
Plinths, cornice, pelmet, end panels, filler strips, and the skirting and architrave that ties the kitchen back into the rest of the room.
Splashbacks & Wet Walls
Tiled splashbacks or wet wall panelling fitted and sealed, cut cleanly around sockets and switches.
Flooring
LVT, laminate or engineered wood laid across the kitchen floor once the units are in, with the sub-floor prepared first.
How a Kitchen Fit Works
Free Site Visit & Quote
We come out, measure up, look at the state of the walls and floor, and talk through what you want. You get a written quote with no obligation.
Design & Order
Your kitchen is designed and ordered through Howdens or Wren — or supplied by you. We check the plan against the real measurements before anything is ordered.
Strip-Out
The old kitchen comes out, services are capped, and any hidden problems behind the units get flagged to you straight away rather than covered back up.
First Fix
Any plumbing and electrical alterations happen while the walls are open, coordinated with the certified trades who sign that work off.
Unit & Worktop Installation
Units set out, levelled and fixed, then worktops templated, cut and jointed on site with cut-outs for your sink and hob.
Second Fix & Finish
Appliances, doors, handles, plinths, cornice, splashback and flooring. Everything adjusted so the gaps are even and the doors close properly.
Clean & Hand Over
Site cleaned, waste removed, and a walk round together so anything you are not happy with gets sorted before we leave.

Free Kitchen Fitting Quote
Send us the kitchen plan from Howdens or Wren, or just the dimensions of the room, and we will come out and price the fit properly — including the strip-out, the worktops and the second-fix joinery, not just the units.
If you have already had a quote elsewhere that seems low, it is usually because the preparation work behind the old units has been left out of it. We are happy to look over it with you.

Kitchen Fitting FAQs
How long does it take to fit a kitchen in Glasgow?
Most kitchen installations take between one and two weeks from strip-out to hand-over. A straightforward like-for-like replacement can be done in under a week; a larger kitchen involving moved plumbing, structural changes or a knock-through will take longer. We give you a realistic timescale with your quote rather than an optimistic one.
How much do kitchen fitters charge in Glasgow?
Fitting cost depends on the size of the kitchen, the number of units, the worktop material, and how much remedial work the room needs behind the old units. Rather than quote a misleading figure, we come out, measure properly and give you a free written quote covering the whole job so there are no surprises later.
Can you fit a kitchen I have already bought?
Yes. We regularly fit customer-supplied kitchens from Howdens, Wren, B&Q, IKEA and independent suppliers. We will check your delivery against the plan before we start so any missing or damaged items get picked up early rather than halfway through the fit.
Do you supply kitchens as well as fit them?
We work in partnership with Howdens and Wren. You get the design and the units through them, and we handle the professional fitting once everything is confirmed. That way you get trade pricing on the kitchen and a time-served joiner installing it.
Do you remove and dispose of the old kitchen?
Yes — strip-out and waste disposal are part of the job. Services are capped off safely and the old units and worktops are taken away rather than left in your garden.
Will you handle the gas and electrical work?
Gas and electrical connections are carried out by the appropriately certified trades, and we coordinate them into the schedule so they turn up at the right point in the job. All notifiable work is signed off correctly.
Do you fit kitchens in tenement flats?
Frequently. Glasgow tenements rarely have a square corner or a level floor, so units get scribed and packed to suit and worktops are templated on site. It is a bigger job than a new-build kitchen and we quote it accordingly.
Are you insured and can I see previous work?
Yes to both. AJ Joiners Limited is a registered company, we are members of the Federation of Master Builders, and we are 5-star rated on Google and listed on Checkatrade. There are photos of recent kitchens on this page and more in our gallery.
