Completing renovation on resi property that has been empty for number of years hence reduced VAT all okay. Main contractor invoicing at 5%, no problem. Large company supplying us kitchen units, drawers, fittings etc, which we are buying directly, but they refuse to apply 5% reduced VAT. My understanding was that kitchens are under the reduced VAT scheme. Are we able to pay supplier 20% and then reclaim 15% through HMRC directly? Many thanks
