The 3D design process was worth every pound — we could see exactly what we were getting. The handpainted Shaker finish is extraordinary, and the Miele integration is flawless. On time, on budget, and every detail as promised.

Opening up the kitchen into the dining room transformed the way we live. The structural engineering was handled in-house, the Caesarstone island is spectacular, and the Gaggenau steam oven has changed how we cook.

We had quotes from two high-end kitchen companies. The difference with Hampstead Renovations was that they handled everything — the structural beam, the plumbing stack, the electrical rewire — under one fixed price. Finish is every bit as good as specialist kitchen firms.

Built for Chelsea Kitchens

Chelsea kitchens run from compact galley spaces in mansion block flats to statement open-plan rooms in Georgian townhouses. Every project needs a design that respects the building.

Period Proportions, Contemporary Performance

Chelsea’s period homes have generous ceiling heights, sash windows, and architectural mouldings. We design cabinetry that respects these proportions — full-height Shaker doors, painted in-frame, with discrete integration of modern appliances and technology.

Structural Openings & Layout Changes

Opening up a kitchen into dining or living space usually requires a steel beam. Our in-house chartered engineers design the structural intervention, submit Building Control applications, and coordinate the opening with cabinetry installation seamlessly.

Premium Brands & Specification

We are experienced with Miele, Gaggenau, Sub-Zero, Wolf, Liebherr, and Siemens Studio Line. Worktops in Caesarstone, Silestone, Dekton, and natural Calacatta, Carrara or Statuario marble. Brassware from Quooker, Franke, Perrin & Rowe, and Lefroy Brooks.

Kitchen Refurbishment Questions

Common questions about kitchen refurbishment in Chelsea.

How much does a kitchen refurbishment cost in Chelsea?
Chelsea kitchen refurbishment typically ranges from £25,000 for a small bespoke kitchen to £200,000+ for ultra-premium specifications with marble, Gaggenau or Sub-Zero, and extensive structural work. Most Chelsea kitchens fall between £45k and £130k. We provide a detailed fixed-price quotation after a free design consultation.
How long does a kitchen refurbishment take in Chelsea?
A typical Chelsea kitchen refurbishment takes 4 to 8 weeks on site. Bespoke cabinetry manufacture runs in parallel for 6–8 weeks. Projects with structural openings or extensive layout changes may take up to 12 weeks. We provide a detailed programme before works commence.
Can you open up my kitchen into the dining room?
Yes — structural openings are one of our most-requested Chelsea kitchen interventions. Our chartered engineers design the steel beam or RSJ, submit Building Control, manage Party Wall if required, and coordinate the opening with your cabinetry install. All handled in-house.
What brands do you work with?
We are experienced with Miele, Gaggenau, Sub-Zero, Wolf, Siemens Studio Line, Liebherr, and Bora. Worktops in Caesarstone, Silestone, Dekton, and natural Calacatta, Carrara, and Statuario marble. Brassware from Quooker, Franke, Perrin & Rowe, and Lefroy Brooks.
Is the cabinetry made in-house?
Yes. All our bespoke cabinetry is manufactured in our own joinery workshop — handpainted, in-frame construction, with precision-engineered soft-close hardware and solid timber dovetailed drawers. This gives us quality control from design to installation.
Can I live in the flat or house during kitchen refurbishment?
Yes, usually. We set up a temporary cooking station where practical, manage dust with full protection, and phase works to minimise disruption. For projects with significant structural opening or extensive first-fix, vacating for 2–3 weeks is recommended.
Do you handle external venting for extractors?
Yes. External venting is essential for Part F compliance and for genuine extraction performance. We manage through-wall ducting, ceiling-integrated runs, downdraft island systems, and acoustic treatment as needed.
What warranties do you provide?
We provide a 10-year cabinetry warranty, full manufacturer warranties on all appliances and worktops, a 5-year workmanship guarantee on installation, and a 10-year insurance-backed structural warranty where structural works are included.
