An 18-year-old kitchen, transformed rather than replaced
A good layout kept exactly where it was, with sprayed cabinetry, quartz surfaces and a new undermount sink doing all the work.

A Better Way To Start
Before making major decisions, I visit your home to understand the space properly, bring samples, discuss options independently, and help you move forward with confidence
No showroom pressure. No guesswork. No expensive mistakes
Just better decisions from the start

Why work with me
I come to you before any big decisions are made.I measure properly, we look at samples in your own light, and talk through options with no pressure and no obligation.
Doors, cabinets and one-off pieces are designed and made in my workshop.Awkward corners and period walls are opportunities rather than problems.
The person who designs your kitchen is the same person who makes or specifies it and then fits it.No salespeople, no handovers, no being passed between departments.
MY WORK
There is no single right way to update a kitchen. Your Home Design Visit will show which route genuinely suits your home

1
Replace (or spray) doors, worktops and other elements for a "like new" look

2
A brand new, personalised kitchen with cabinets and doors from a long-standing UK manufacturer

3
Built from raw materials using traditional cabinetmaking skills at my workshop
Three ways to update a kitchen: a full refresh that keeps your existing cabinets, usually £15,000 to £20,000; a custom kitchen at £20,000 to £30,000; or bespoke cabinetry made in my workshop from £30,000. Every project starts with a free Home Design Visit.

5 out of 5 stars from Mark Dunn
“We found him to be honest, open and engaging, taking great care to deliver what our desired outcomes were but making excellent suggestions along the way for further enhancement. The outcomes have been amazing. Our kitchen has been transformed. I would recommend Nick without reservation. He is a genuine master craftsman who delivered exactly what we were after, on time and to budget.”

5 out of 5 stars from Mr & Mrs Thomas
“We contacted Nick when we were looking to upgrade our 16 year old, tired looking kitchen. He took us through a comprehensive decision making process in a calm, patient, honest and straightforward way. When he carried out the installation, we were extremely impressed with his level of skill and ability to find practical solutions where necessary. The result is a very high quality kitchen which we are delighted with. We recommend Nick without reservation. He is a craftsman of real talent with design 'know how', matched with complete reliability and absolute attention to detail. It has been a pleasure to have him craft our new kitchen.”

“Nick completely renovated our very tired kitchen and has completed the work to a very high standard. We liked that fact that he was happy to repair a well built kitchen which was perfect from both a cost and sustainability perspective. We have new LED lighting, repaired and spray painted cupboards and lovely new in cupboard mechanisms. We would thoroughly recommend him.”

“Nick helped us update our 18 year old kitchen. He was professional, organised and efficient throughout. The quality of his work is exceptional and we thoroughly recommend him. Our kitchen has not just been updated but transformed.”
5 out of 5 stars from Matthew Rogers
“We engaged Nick to replace our tired kitchen. Nick took his time to let us know various options we could consider and was very patient in the planning process. Asking us for the pain points in our current kitchen was valuable as we started to plan the layout of our new kitchen. Nick has a calm approach which helps when dealing with such a big project. We are very happy with our new kitchen and would recommend Nick, without hesitation, if you are considering a similar project.”
5 out of 5 stars from Zoe Moreton
“Nick is highly professional, has an eye for the smallest details and is great at communicating. I drew a design I loved and Nick made it come to life. He regularly updated me on his progress, and when he came to fit was unobtrusive, polite and very neat and tidy. We would use him again in a heartbeat. Thank you Nick!”
5 out of 5 stars from Clare Eaton
“I thoroughly recommend Nick Archibold. His standard of work is excellent and he is a pleasure to work with. He patiently talked through each stage of our kitchen renovation, suggested good ideas for how to make the kitchen work well for us and communicated well with us at all times. A really good find for us and we have no reservations in recommending him.”
