The current WHQS 2023 requires us to reassess at 16 and 26 years, but this does not mean they are planned for replacement at that time. WHQS states that kitchens and bathrooms should be in good condition regardless of age. So, if the kitchen or bathroom is in good condition, the age is irrelevant.
It is not our “standard procedure” to replace kitchens and bathrooms based on their age, it is based on their condition, and is subject to survey.
A kitchen in good condition could last many more years than 16.
