ABOUT THE PROJECT

After initially considering purchasing a kitchen from Wren, our client carefully considered our full supply-and-fit service. This decision resulted in a striking kitchen transformation featuring navy blue Shaker cabinets, elegant quartz worktops, and durable LVT flooring, complemented by modern integrated appliances. This project highlights our expertise in delivering stylish and functional kitchen renovations.

Our full-service approach exceeded the client’s expectations and provided a hassle-free experience compared to a DIY flat-pack installation. Premium quartz worktops added a touch of luxury, while the classic yet contemporary Shaker-style cabinetry enhanced aesthetics and functionality.

The Process & The Kitchen Design & Build In Progress

The kitchen renovation project began with a complete removal of the old kitchen, making way for a fresh, modern design. To optimise costs, the client arranged for her own electrician and plasterer, and the team integrated their work seamlessly into the schedule. This structured approach ensured efficiency and minimised disruptions, keeping the project on track from start to finish.

Initially, the old kitchen was ripped out and the space prepared for the new installation. The electrician completed all first-fix wiring by the third and fourth days, while plastering work wrapped up by the ninth day, enabling further kitchen fittings to proceed smoothly. The installation phase included fitting navy blue Shaker cabinets with precise alignment and seamless finishes. Quartz worktop templates were measured and later installed to a high standard.

Before laying the new flooring, the team applied self-levelling compound to prepare the surface, then installed high-quality luxury vinyl tile flooring. A new radiator was also added to improve overall comfort and energy efficiency in the space.

During the process, a minor challenge arose when the delivered quart

z worktop differed slightly from the sample the client had approved. However, through proactive communication and collaboration, the client and the team resolved the issue quickly, ensuring complete satisfaction without compromising quality.

THE RESULTS

The renovation resulted in a bright, contemporary kitchen tailored to Mrs Davis’ needs, offering significantly enhanced storage and worktop space, which was a priority. She was particularly delighted with the additional cupboard space, the sleek, clean appearance of the splashback panels, and the spacious, well-thought-out kitchen layout. Removing the false ceiling further contributed to the room's open and airy atmosphere.

This kitchen transformation is a prime example of how an outdated kitchen can be transformed into a stylish and highly functional space designed to suit the client's lifestyle. Completed with a project budget of £15,000, the team delivered a top-quality renovation on time, providing Mrs Davies with a beautiful and practical kitchen she can enjoy for many years to come.

"Excellent service. The team were professional and completed the job to a very high standard. From ripping out the old kitchen to installing the new Shaker kitchen cabinets and quartz worktops, including the LVT kitchen flooring, everything went smoothly. I would definitely recommend them for kitchen renovations."
