It depends on the size and complexity of your project, but as a general guide you should allow three to five months from your initial consultation to installation being complete. The design stage takes the most time, because we work through the detail carefully before manufacturing begins. Once your kitchen goes into production, lead times are typically eight to twelve weeks. We will give you a clear timeline once we have seen your space and understood the full scope of what is involved.

We come to your home. We look at the room properly, take measurements, and talk through what you want your kitchen to do. We ask about how you cook, how you use the space, and how it connects to the rest of your home. There is no showroom visit, no presentation of pre-set options. The consultation is a conversation, and it starts in your room. There is no obligation to proceed, and no cost to that first meeting.

Yes, and those are exactly the kinds of rooms we design for. Awkward features, structural constraints, and irregular proportions are resolved at the design stage, not on the day of fitting. Because we design and manufacture your kitchen ourselves, we can build to whatever the room requires. There is no standard template we are trying to fit your space into. Your room is the starting point, and the design works around it.

We do not work from a fixed style range. We start with your home, its period, its character, and what you want the kitchen to feel like, and design from there. That might mean something understated and contemporary in an architect-designed house, or something that sits more naturally with the stone walls and original features of a period farmhouse. We do not push a signature look. The design should feel right for your home, not for our portfolio.

Your kitchen is built in our own UK workshop once the design is fully agreed and signed off. Every cabinet is rigid and factory assembled before it leaves the workshop. That means when it arrives at your home, the cabinetry is already built to the tolerances required. We are not assembling flat-pack units on site. Everything is made to the specific dimensions of your room, with no adjustments required to make standard sizes fit.

Our own installation team. The same people who have been part of your project from the design stage are involved in the fit. They know your room, they know what was designed, and they know why. No external contractors, no handover to a separate fitting team who are seeing your plans for the first time. That continuity matters, both for the quality of the finished result and for your experience of the process.

Yes, and we do it regularly. If you are working with an architect or an interior designer on a wider project, we are used to fitting into that process. We can work from existing drawings and co-ordinate with other trades and consultants. We are clear about what we need from other parties and what we will provide in return. If your project involves a broader team, let us know from the outset and we will make sure the working arrangement is straightforward.

Larger open-plan spaces need careful thought, because the kitchen is no longer just a working room. It is part of how the whole space reads. We design with that in mind, considering how the kitchen sits within the wider room, how it relates to the dining and living areas, and how the layout works when the space is being used by more than one person at once. Bigger rooms give more freedom, but they also require more considered decisions about zoning, proportion and sight lines.

Most projects we work on fall in the range of forty thousand to one hundred thousand pounds, including design, manufacture and installation. Some projects sit below that range and some above it, depending on the size of the room, the materials specified, and the complexity of the brief. Bespoke kitchens vary in cost because every element is made to order. There are no standard units to price off a list. The most useful thing we can do is talk through your project and give you an honest indication once we understand what is involved.

Yes. We work across the full county, including Oxford, Woodstock, Witney, Charlbury, Thame, and the surrounding villages and rural areas. Distance within Oxfordshire is not a barrier. If you are in a small village or a remote farmhouse, we will come to you for the initial consultation in the same way we would anywhere else in the region.

As involved as you want to be. Some people come to us with a clear sense of what they want and strong opinions about materials and detail. Others want to be guided through the decisions. Either way, you will be part of every stage that matters. We will show you how the design is developing, explain the reasoning behind the decisions we are proposing, and make sure you are confident in what is being made before manufacturing begins.

That is a perfectly good place to start a conversation. A lot of the projects we take on begin before the brief is fully formed. The initial consultation is as much about helping you think through what you want your kitchen to become as it is about us gathering information. You do not need to arrive with decisions made. You just need to be thinking seriously about the project. We can help you work through the rest from there.
