FAQS
The things homeowners actually ask us, answered straight — including the ones some companies dodge.
What is a kitchen makeover?
We keep your existing units and replace the doors, drawer fronts, end panels, cornice and plinths — everything you see when the doors are closed. It gives you the look of a new kitchen without the cost of ripping everything out.
How long does it take?
Made-to-measure doors take about three weeks to arrive from order. The fitting itself is usually two to three days, depending on the size of your kitchen. We'll agree exact dates with you when you place your order.
Makeover or new kitchen — how do I choose?
If your units are sound and you're keeping the layout, a makeover is almost always the better buy. If the layout is wrong or the units have genuinely had it, a new kitchen earns its keep. We'll tell you honestly which one you need — including if it's the cheaper option.
Can you change my kitchen layout?
Within reason, yes. We can swap an individual unit — for example, removing a drawer stack and fitting a tall unit instead — without touching the rest of the kitchen. A full rework of the layout means a new kitchen instead.
Do you do full new kitchens too?
Yes. Same team, same guarantee, same one point of contact. See our new kitchens page for how it works.
Can you replace worktops?
Yes — laminate, solid wood, solid surface, quartz and granite. Most customers add a worktop to their makeover because it's the piece that makes the new doors look finished.
What about handles?
New handles come in bar, knob, cup and T-bar styles. You can keep your existing ones to save a little money, but new handles on new doors is the difference that sells the look.
Do you supply appliances?
We can source ovens, hobs and extractors from most major manufacturers, and fit them as part of the job. Tell us what you need during your visit and we'll price it in.
Is the consultation really free?
Yes, genuinely free, with no obligation. The visit, the measuring and the written quote cost you nothing. We ask for a 50% deposit only when you decide to book the job in.
What's the guarantee?
Six years on all doors and worktops, from the manufacturers we partner with. It's written, it's honoured, and it's the same whichever local owner fits your kitchen.
Ask us anything — genuinely, anything — and we'll give you the straight answer even if it costs us the sale.
