Frequently asked questions
About our handmade Orpington kitchens
A kitchen created just for you will be a pleasure to use, every day. It will cater for your daily practical needs and aesthetic preferences.
Bespoke kitchens are a perfect fit, even if you have wonky walls or awkward spaces. And a tailored approach allows you to incorporate unique features to maximise functionality and add personal touches.
Built to last, you should expect a lifetime of enjoyment from your handmade Orpington kitchen.
We tend to use a melamine faced MDF material from FINSA, or sometimes plywood in the construction of our cabinet carcasses; they provide both strength and durability. We use solid timber, typically oak or walnut, for our drawer boxes, with traditional dovetail joints.
The choice of material for doors varies according to each customer’s preference. We might use Finsa Fibrapan Hidrofugo Plus for a contemporary shaker style door for its strength and moisture-resistance, or ash for a classic painted shaker door. Natural oak is popular for a more traditional theme, or high-gloss acrylic for a streamlined, contemporary design.
The cost of a custom-made Orpington kitchen depends on the space, design requirements, client specifications, and the materials being used. It will certainly cost a lot more than a ready-made ‘off the shelf’ kitchen, but bespoke kitchens are an excellent investment. They are made to last and will give you a lifetime of pleasure. As a guide, a small kitchen will cost from £50,000, rising to over £70,000 for larger spaces.
Bright, airy, contemporary kitchens are still very much on trend. And we rarely create a kitchen without the practical and welcoming presence of a central island. Pantries or pantry cupboards are also a great favourite and becoming more of a kitchen staple. In colour trends, off whites and light greys are perennially popular. The resurgence of blue continues, along with brass metallics. And, recently, we’ve seen pinks, greens and more earthy tones creeping onto the scene.
A kitchen island is a useful addition to any kitchen design and suits both traditional and contemporary styles.
Kitchen islands often divide the working space from more informal living areas, while maintaining a communal feel and a more open aesthetic than a peninsular layout. The cook can work uninterrupted on one side, while chatting to guests seated opposite.
Versatile islands can play many roles; somewhere to cook, chat, study, relax and store stuff. And, if you enjoy entertaining, they’re a great spot to house a wine fridge!
Traditionally, most kitchens would have a pantry or larder as a separate room to store food. The trend towards more open-plan living has meant that most pantries have been sacrificed to provide more undivided space.
In their place, many Orpington homeowners have fitted large pantry cupboards. These offer bespoke storage for all your food and other kitchen essentials; easy to access but neatly shut away. Pantry cupboards can incorporate marble shelves for the cool storage of eggs and butter, vegetable drawers and spice racks. And we often include power sockets to further enhance the functionality of these beautiful pieces of furniture.
Bespoke wine storage or a custom-built bar are a fabulous addition to any kitchen, creating storage for your collection or a hidden bar to reveal on social occasions. They not only add a stylish feature to your Orpington home; they can be a real talking point! We can also supply innovative appliances to store your wine perfectly, including wine fridges and conditioners.
Choosing the appliances for your Orpington kitchen is one of the most important design decisions. A huge range of appliances are available, from those offering time-saving practicalities for busy family life, to more sophisticated machines appealing to experimental chefs.
While it’s important to ensure that your new kitchen has all the appliances you need, you should also be realistic. It is an important investment and one to consider carefully. Quooker taps giving you instant boiling, hot, cold and even sparkling water are increasingly popular for their sheer convenience, and for the stylish options available. A Miele steam oven or the incredible Bora X BO provide both a healthy and versatile cooking experience.
We’ll help you choose those products that will truly enhance your day to day life.
There are many creative and useful ways to incorporate power into your Orpington kitchen. As well as the option for skirting and countertop level sockets, they can be set into countertops for easy access, or installed under, or within, cabinets for a sleek profile.
Pop-up socket towers can be hidden in your countertop or island, popping up at a simple press of the finger when needed, giving you a convenient power source for small appliances that’s subtly housed when it’s not needed.
