Choosing Cutler & Berry to build your kitchen gives you an unmatched combination of skill, knowledge and dedication. We take pride in creating a bespoke, hand-built kitchen that will serve you beautifully now and for many, many years to come.

Creating your ‘forever’ kitchen begins here.

Our Kitchen Design and Installation Process

Stage 1

Initial consultation

Join us in our appointment-only studio to experience the Cutler & Berry difference for yourself and to be inspired by our past and current projects. This relaxed meeting is designed for you to ask questions, tell us what you want from your kitchen and explain any concerns or considerations you want us to be aware of. We will also use this consultation to review your home’s footprint and understand how your new kitchen will fit into your home.

Stage 2

Design

If you choose to commission us to create your new kitchen, we then begin working on your initial concepts. We will have all the information we need from our initial consultation ready to meticulously draft your designs.

Each kitchen is designed with four key principles in mind:

Space planning. We use interior architecture conventions to assess your home in its fullness, considering details such as how you live and how adjoining rooms support your kitchen.

Aesthetics. Creating a kitchen that’s truly breathtaking depends on perfect balance, proportion, and a sense of symmetry. This creates the foundations of a well-organised and fine-looking kitchen.

Storage. Well-planned, clever storage is essential to a beautiful and useful kitchen. We integrate thoughtful storage options into your kitchen which are designed to precisely meet your needs.

Finish. Finally, we bring your new kitchen design to life by specifying finishes such as worktops, colours, appliances and lighting. Your kitchen is completely bespoke; if there’s a colour or detail you want, tell us and we’ll incorporate it into your design.

Stage 3

Build

With designs in place and measurements taken, our experienced cabinet makers start creating your kitchen with the finest quality materials. Every item – from cabinet door to cornicing – is made uniquely for your project in our workshop by our highly skilled team. We will stay in touch with you and your contractors during this time to stay abreast of on-site progress. We also create detailed plans for your contractors which include all necessary information for plumbing, gas and electrical points, ready for installation.

Stage 4

Delivery and installation

We fit your Cutler & Berry Kitchen ourselves so that we can guarantee the same care and attention to installation as we’ve put into the design and build of your kitchen. Our trusted team will work with your own tradesmen to complete the installation, ensuring everything is perfectly coordinated. Your cabinets receive a final top coat once fitted, ensuring that your kitchen is finished without fault.

Stage 5

Sign Off

During your installation, you will have one or two visits from our team to ensure your project is millimetre perfect. We only sign off a project and provide warranties once it meets our exceptionally high standards. Once you’re happy and we’re happy, we will sign off your kitchen, leaving you to enjoy cooking, eating and entertaining in your beautiful new kitchen.
