Kitchens FAQs

Why should I invest in a new kitchen?

A well-designed kitchen is the highest-ROI renovation you can do in a home.

Industry research and multiple homeowner surveys consistently show that a modern, high-quality kitchen can increase your property value by 5–10%, depending on execution and market conditions.

A widely referenced industry survey (conducted in partnership with YouGov and used by multiple kitchen brands) suggests that many property experts believe a new kitchen can add up to 8% to a home’s value when done properly.

Even if exact returns vary, the principle is proven: a modern kitchen pays you back in both lifestyle and resale value.

On top of that:

  • It becomes the central social space of the home

  • It completely changes the feeling of the property

  • It makes cooking, hosting, and living far more enjoyable

  • It creates a clean, modern aesthetic that buyers love

A kitchen is the heart of the home.

A high-end kitchen sells houses.

How much should I expect to spend on a kitchen?

For most UK homeowners, a realistic kitchen budget — without going ultra-luxury — is around £7,000–£10,000 for cabinetry, worktops, and basic appliances.

This is the normal, healthy range for a mid to high-end kitchen renovation.

Breaking it down:

  • £4,000–£6,500 → cabinetry

  • £1,500–£2,500 → appliances (depending on brand)

  • £800–£1,500 → worktops (laminate to quartz)

  • £500–£1,200 → sink, tap, handles, extras

If you want a premium look without wasting money, the key is a smart design and the right suppliers — that’s exactly what we help you with.

What style of kitchens do you specialise in?

We focus on modern, minimalist, contemporary, and luxury designs.

This includes:

  • Matt finishes

  • Warm woods

  • Statement stone worktops

  • LED accent lighting

  • Hidden storage

  • Clean lines

  • Premium, hotel-style aesthetics

Everything we design is intentional — balanced, functional, and visually strong.

Can you design small or awkward kitchens?

Yes — and this is where we shine.

Small kitchens, U-shapes, galley layouts, or rooms with awkward corners are common.

We use:

  • smart zoning

  • storage optimisation

  • layout logic

  • lighting tricks

  • scale and symmetry

…to make even compact spaces feel larger and more premium.

Some of our best client transformations came from tiny kitchens that needed precision, not money.

Can you design around my existing appliances or flooring?

Absolutely. If you’re keeping anything — such as your fridge, cooker, flooring, tiles, or worktops — we design around those items and make them blend seamlessly into the new aesthetic.

Can I get a premium, luxury look without a huge budget?

Yes.

That’s one of the main reasons clients come to us.

A high-end look isn’t about spending £20k+.

It’s about:

  • the right finishes

  • the right colour combinations

  • lighting placement

  • cabinet proportions

  • texture balance

  • smart supplier choices

We create designs that look expensive, even with realistic budgets.
