Kitchen Trade Coordination Services
A kitchen installation involves multiple trades working in a precise sequence. We act as your single point of contact, scheduling and managing plumbers, electricians, gas fitters, and tilers so every trade shows up at the right time and your project stays on track.
About Trade Coordination
A kitchen renovation typically requires at least three licensed trades in addition to the cabinet installer: a plumber for water supply and drainage, an electrician for circuits and lighting, and often a gas fitter for cooktop or oven connections. Coordinating these trades yourself means juggling multiple schedules, managing dependencies, and troubleshooting when one delay cascades into others.
Our trade coordination service removes that burden entirely. We maintain a vetted network of licensed plumbers, electricians, gas fitters, tilers, and painters who specialize in kitchen work. Because they work with us regularly, they understand our sequencing requirements and show up prepared with the right materials for your specific project.
Sequencing is the key to an efficient kitchen installation. Rough-in plumbing and electrical must happen before cabinets go in. Cabinets must be complete before countertop templating. Countertops must be installed before the plumber returns for final sink connections. Getting this order wrong costs days of delay and can require expensive rework.
We build a detailed project schedule at the quoting stage, mapping every trade to specific days and identifying the critical path. You receive a clear timeline showing when each trade will be on-site and what needs to be completed before they arrive. We manage day-to-day communication with all trades so you deal with one phone number, not five.
If unexpected issues arise — a hidden pipe behind a wall, an electrical panel that needs upgrading, or a delayed material delivery — we adjust the schedule in real time, communicate changes to all affected trades, and keep you informed every step of the way.
How It Works
Scope & Trade Assessment
We review your kitchen plan and identify every trade required — plumbing, electrical, gas, tiling, painting — along with the specific tasks each will perform.
Schedule Building
We create a day-by-day project timeline that sequences each trade in the correct order, accounting for lead times, curing periods, and inspection requirements.
Trade Booking & Briefing
Each trade is booked for their designated dates and briefed on the scope, site conditions, and materials required for your specific kitchen.
On-Site Management
We oversee each trade visit, verify work quality, resolve conflicts, and adjust the schedule in real time if any issues arise.
Final Walkthrough
Once all trades have completed their work, we conduct a final walkthrough with you to confirm every item is finished to standard.
