Kitchen Restoration FAQs

Every kitchen is different, so costs vary depending on the size of your kitchen, the materials and finishes you choose, and the scope of work involved. Because we tailor each project to your space and style, we don't offer generic pricing — but replacing doors and worktops is typically far more cost-effective than a full renovation, since your existing cabinetry stays in place. Book a free consultation and we'll give you an accurate, no-obligation quote based on your kitchen.

In most cases, yes. As long as your cabinet carcasses are structurally sound, we can fit new doors, panels and trims directly onto them — this is the whole idea behind our approach, giving you a completely new look without the cost and disruption of ripping everything out. During your home survey, we'll check your existing units to confirm what can be kept and what, if anything, needs replacing.

Most installations are completed on-site within 2 days, keeping disruption to your home to a minimum. Exact timings depend on the size and scope of your kitchen, and we’ll confirm them with you during your free consultation.

We can talk through samples of both during your design consultation to help you choose the right fit for your kitchen.

Yes — during your home survey, we bring physical door and worktop samples so you can see exactly how the finishes look in your own kitchen lighting, and we work with you to make sure everything complements your existing units, appliances and overall style.

Significantly less. Because your doors, panels and trims are manufactured and pre-finished off-site, installation is far quicker and cleaner than a full renovation, which typically involves ripping out cabinetry, plumbing and electrics.

Yes — we offer both as standalone services as well as combined makeovers, so you can update just the elements that need refreshing rather than paying for a full transformation you don't need.
