Fridge freezer installation for your home
Request fitting for a freestanding fridge freezer or an integrated replacement. Larger models and fitted furniture doors need their own access and compatibility review.
Fitting types: Freestanding and integrated models, where available.
Details that help us prepare
Send the old and new models, overall dimensions and any water-connection requirement. For integrated models, include the compartment split and furniture-door hinge arrangement if known.
- The old and new model numbers and when the replacement will be available.
- Safely available measurements and photographs of the fitting position, if useful.
- Existing connections and any changes you already know are needed.
- Whether disconnection, removal or disposal of the old appliance is required.
- The full property address and any access arrangements for the visit.
Planning a fridge freezer replacement
What affects fridge freezer installation cost?
The quote depends on the appliance's size, access, fitted-door work and any water connection. Include the old and new models and whether removal is needed. An integrated replacement and a large freestanding model can involve different work. The office agrees the fitting scope and price before booking; disposal, cabinetry and connection alterations are included only when confirmed.
Will a new integrated fridge freezer fit my existing kitchen doors?
The compartment split and furniture-door system must suit the replacement as well as the overall height and width. Two integrated appliances can divide the fridge and freezer sections differently. Share both model numbers and any known door or cabinet measurements. Do not assume a replacement will fit solely because it has a similar capacity.
Does an American-style fridge freezer need plumbing?
That depends on the exact model. Some dispenser or ice-making arrangements require a water connection, while others use a refillable tank or have no water feature. Send the product reference and say whether a suitable connection already exists. Any new water-supply work needs review and a separate agreement; the model's appearance alone does not establish what is required.
What access details matter for a large fridge freezer?
Include doorways, stairs, tight turns and the available space at the final position. The appliance must be able to enter the property and open correctly once fitted. Provide measurements you already have and tell us about any access restrictions. Door removal or other alterations are not assumed to be part of the fitting; the office must review and agree them.
How long after fridge freezer installation can I use it?
Use the manufacturer's instructions for standing after transport and starting the exact model. Fridge and freezer sections then need time to reach their storage temperatures. There is no universal switch-on or food-loading time for every appliance. Plan suitable cold storage during the changeover, and keep the model instructions available for the installer to review.
How do I request fitting for my fridge freezer brand?
Give the full product reference, whether it is integrated or freestanding, your postcode and any dispenser connection requirement. For a replacement, include the existing model too. Brand ranges contain different widths, door systems and fitting arrangements, so the office checks the proposed appliance before agreeing the visit. UKCDA operates independently of the manufacturer.
Bosch's refrigeration ventilation guidance shows why the cabinet and airflow arrangement need checking. Its illustrated dimensions are not a universal specification; the proposed model's manual takes precedence.
Send the fitting details for your address
UKCDA accepts installation enquiries across London and all areas inside the M25, throughout Surrey, and across DA and RM postcodes. Check your full postcode, then send the exact model and proposed fitting position. The office confirms suitability, the agreed scope and appointment availability. Manufacturer references provide background guidance and do not imply that UKCDA is authorised by those manufacturers.
Agreeing your installation
Installation work and charges are agreed for your model, fitting and existing connections before an appointment is confirmed. Removal, disposal and changes to cabinetry, plumbing, electrical supplies or ducting are included only when expressly agreed in the quotation.
Submit the fitting details and our office will confirm the price and appointment. Installation is quoted separately from repair work, and this enquiry form does not take payment.
