Who we are
A new kitchen is one of the few renovations that changes how a house is actually used every day. Getting it right means more than picking cabinet doors — it means understanding the plumbing run, where the extraction needs to go, and whether the layout you want is structurally possible before a single unit is ordered.
Dakus Construction handles the whole job in-house — strip-out, plumbing, electrics, plastering, tiling, cabinetry and worktop fitting — so you deal with one team from the first measure-up to the final snag list. No handing you between a kitchen showroom, a plumber and a separate fitter.
We work across all of Greater London, with a particular focus on East London — Newham, Waltham Forest, Redbridge, Barking & Dagenham, Hackney and Tower Hamlets — as well as North, South and West London and the Essex and Kent borders. Wherever you are, call us and ask.

What we do
Take on the whole kitchen, or start with the parts that matter most. Every service below is delivered by our own team.
Complete strip-out and rebuild, including new units, worktops, flooring, lighting and extraction — tailored to your space and budget.
Opening up the rear or side of the house to create an open-plan kitchen-diner — the classic upgrade for London’s Victorian and Edwardian terraces.
Made-to-measure cabinetry for awkward alcoves, chimney breasts and sloping walls, in modern or shaker styles.
Clever storage, tall units and slimline appliances that make the most of compact spaces — common in London’s terraced housing and converted flats.
Quartz, granite and laminate worktops templated to fit, plus integrated appliance installation and full electrical certification.
Gas Safe registered pipework and appliance connections, new circuits, sockets and lighting design — all certified on completion.
Local knowledge
London’s housing stock spans everything from Victorian terraces and mansion flats to riverside new-build apartments, and each one dictates a different approach to plumbing runs, extraction and layout.
01
From Walthamstow and Hackney to Clapham and Ealing. Narrow galley kitchens with a rear extension almost always waiting to happen — solid walls and old wiring are the usual surprises.
02
Suburban London from Ilford and Chingford to Finchley and Bromley. Generous plots and side access make these some of the easiest homes in the area to extend into.
03
Across every borough, from Tower Hamlets to Southwark. Solid, consistent layouts, but often still carrying original 1960s-70s kitchens badly in need of rewiring and replumbing.
04
Royal Docks, Stratford, Greenwich Peninsula and Battersea. Structurally sound but often finished to a developer’s budget — upgrading units, worktops and appliances makes an immediate difference.
05
Woodford, Chigwell, Richmond and the outer boroughs. Room for larger islands, bi-fold doors and open-plan kitchen-diner layouts.
06
Landlords and vendors working to a deadline. We scope the kitchen work that actually moves valuation and rental yield, and hit fixed dates.
Budgeting
Nobody can quote a kitchen they have not seen, and any builder who gives you a firm number over the phone is guessing. What we can do is be straight about what drives the figure.
Four things move a kitchen budget more than anything else: the size and layout of the room, whether plumbing or extraction needs to move, the cabinetry and worktop specification you choose, and whether you’re extending or knocking through as part of the project.
How we quote
We visit, measure, and talk through what you actually want the kitchen to do. You then get a written, itemised, fixed-price quote — labour and materials broken out line by line, so you can see exactly what you are paying for and adjust the specification if the number needs to come down. The price we agree is the price you pay unless you ask us to change the scope.
How it works
Six stages, and you know which one you are in at all times.
01
Free Home Consultation
We visit your London property to measure up and discuss your ideas and budget.
02
Design & Specification
You’ll receive a detailed kitchen design and layout agreed in writing before anything is ordered.
03
Fixed, Itemised Quote
A written price broken down line by line, with a start date and a realistic programme attached.
04
Strip-Out & First Fix
Old kitchen removed, plumbing and electrics first-fixed, then plastering where needed.
05
Units, Worktops & Second Fix
Cabinetry fitted, worktops templated and installed, appliances connected — typically 10–15 working days in total.
06
Snagging & Handover
A final walk-through to make sure every detail is right before we leave.

The difference
Plumbing, electrics, plastering, tiling and cabinetry all in-house. No chasing a showroom, a plumber and a fitter separately.
You see every line. The agreed price holds unless you change the scope, and we tell you the cost before we do anything extra.
Gas Safe registered plumbers, certified electricians, full public liability cover and insurance-backed guarantees on completed work.
Stone worktops are templated only once units are fitted and level — no guesswork, no re-cuts.
Dust protection, daily clear-up and sensible hours — especially important when a kitchen is the only room out of action.
Two decades fitting kitchens across London, with a track record homeowners trust.
Questions
Costs vary depending on size, layout changes, cabinetry and worktop material. We provide a fixed, itemised quote after a free home visit so there are no surprises.
A standard refit typically takes 10–15 working days. Stone worktops are templated once the units are in and usually take a further week to fabricate and fit. Projects involving extensions or structural changes take longer.
A like-for-like refit doesn’t need planning permission. Rear or side-return extensions often fall under permitted development, but structural work, gas and electrics all need building regulations sign-off. We advise on this during your consultation.
Not for most of the project — the room is stripped back to bare walls and floor early on. We’ll help you plan a temporary setup elsewhere in the house and keep water and power disruption to a minimum where possible.
Yes — our plumbers are Gas Safe registered and our electricians are fully certified, and all work is covered by insurance-backed guarantees.
