Bespoke kitchens, London
Bespoke kitchens in London, made to measure
Made-to-measure kitchen cabinetry with tall units, islands, internal storage and surrounding finishes resolved around the room.
A bespoke kitchen has to work as fitted furniture and as part of the room. The proportions of the cabinetry, the routes through the space and the storage needed every day all shape the layout.
Cabinet runs, tall housings, islands and internal storage are resolved together, so the proportions remain consistent across the whole room.
What do bespoke kitchens cost?
A kitchen quotation separates the cabinetry from the surfaces, appliances and related work agreed for that project.
| Guide price | Bespoke kitchens typically start from £10,000, with each project individually priced following a measured survey. Larger kitchens, islands and more complex designs are quoted accordingly. |
| What moves it | Kitchen size and layout, cabinetry and internal storage, worktops, appliances, materials and finishes, integrated lighting and any associated electrical, plumbing or finishing works. |
What is planned into a bespoke kitchen?
PlanningThe layout is resolved before the cabinet sizes are fixed. Doorways, windows and routes through the room, together with the positions of sinks and appliances, affect where cabinet runs, tall units and islands can sit.
Internal storage is planned around what is used and where it is needed. The balance of drawers, shelves and cupboards is considered alongside clear worktop space rather than added after the main layout is settled.
Appliance models, dimensions and service requirements need to be confirmed before the final design is agreed. That keeps housings, door fronts and adjoining cabinetry aligned with the equipment they surround.
How long does it take?
A kitchen moves through design, specification, production and fitting. The programme is agreed once those decisions are clear.
| Booked ahead | Lead time typically 4 to 8 weeks |
| Survey to drawings | Where the project needs design work, one week is set aside for it, and drawings follow at the end of that week. Straightforward projects can go straight to quotation. |
| On site | The installation period is allocated and agreed when the deposit is paid, and the final dates are confirmed as the project progresses. |
What is it made from?
Kitchen materials have to suit everyday use as well as the finish wanted for the room.
Bespoke kitchens are available in painted MR MDF, melamine and decorative boards, or natural wood veneer, with a wide choice of colours and finishes.
Worktops, splashbacks and appliances
Surfaces and scopeA worktop decision affects more than colour. Material, thickness, edge detail, upstands and the cut-outs for a sink or hob all meet the cabinetry, so they are considered before the final drawings are approved.
The splashback is planned at the same stage, whether the design uses an upstand, a full-height surface or a separate finish. Its junctions with the worktop, wall units and end panels should read as part of the same scheme.
Appliances, worktops, splashbacks, plumbing and electrical work can be supplied or coordinated by Structure & Style, or arranged by the client. The itemised quotation assigns responsibility for each part, so nothing is assumed simply because it touches the kitchen.
How is it fitted?
The final installation brings the cabinetry, panels and specified surrounding elements together in the room.
| Scribing | Walls, floors and ceilings are rarely straight, so the furniture is scribed, cut to follow the line of the room, rather than left with gaps. Fitted and finished, it should look like one piece that belongs in the room. |
| Clearing up | Floors and the surrounding area are protected before work starts, and dust extraction runs throughout. The area is tidied at the end of each day, and waste and off-cuts leave with us at the end. |
What happens afterwards?
The handover starts the guarantee and adjustment periods set out below.
| Guarantee | 2 years on installation and workmanship, and 10 years on the structural integrity of the joinery. Hinges, runners and other hardware are covered by their manufacturer's warranty. |
| Adjustments | If doors, drawers or other moving parts require adjustment during the 2-year aftercare period, we will return and adjust them. |

Asked before enquiring
QuestionsDo I need a finished kitchen plan before enquiring?
No. Rough dimensions, a photograph or drawing, and a sense of what is not working are enough to start. The consultation and measured survey establish the detail needed for the quotation and any drawings.
How many design revisions are included?
Up to two rounds of design revisions are included. Further rounds, or substantial changes to the agreed brief, may be chargeable.
