Have you already found your own kitchen supplier? But now you need help with the installation part?
Or maybe you need some design and planning help with your chosen kitchen?
The decision to hire a professional versus attempting a DIY project or relying on a general builder depends on various factors.
Fitting a kitchen involves many different elements, including cabinet design, joinery, plumbing, electrics, gas, lighting, stonework, tiling, and appliance installation. Achieving a high-quality finish requires skill and years of experience.
Opting for the DIY route or a general builder may result in a longer timeframe for completion and an increased risk of costly mistakes.
By enlisting the services of a professional, it will ensure your kitchen is done to perfection the first time. Professionals bring expertise, precision, and efficiency to the process, guaranteeing a high-quality finish.
Assisting you in navigating the process of planning and ordering your kitchen is a valuable service we offer. Our approach involves conducting a thorough survey of your kitchen, followed by the creation of detailed 3D drawings for the new design.
Additionally, we can streamline the purchasing process by loading the shopping list directly onto your chosen kitchen website, ensuring a seamless and error-free transaction.
This approach eliminates the risk of ordering incorrect cabinets or missing essential parts. Our goal is to provide you with a hassle-free experience, ensuring that every element of your kitchen project is precisely tailored to your needs and arrives as expected.
What is Project Management?..Do I really need it?
Here’s a quick overview of what goes into a new kitchen project..
A kitchen project typically involves multiple trades such as a designer, joiner, plumber, electrician, gas engineer, stone mason, and tiler. Managing these trades requires contacting each one, obtaining and agreeing on costs, checking availability, and scheduling installation dates. Coordination is crucial to ensure the trades are scheduled in the correct order, and that they all show up on the agreed-upon date.
Additionally, the project involves ordering and managing the delivery of cabinets, worktops, appliances, lighting, and other building materials. These materials need to be checked upon delivery and stored appropriately until ready for installation.
Project Management simplifies and streamlines these complex processes. It ensures efficient scheduling, avoids conflicts in the order of tasks, and minimizes the risk of delays. Effective management is key to a problem-free and successful kitchen project, allowing you to focus on enjoying your new space without the stress of logistical challenges.

We are very happy with our newly refurbished kitchen, Donal was professional and helpful from start to finish, offering great ideas and then making them happen. He is a very skilled craftsman, everything has been made and fitted to the highest standard. Despite all the extras we needed, such as new pipe work and electrics, Donal was always able to come up with solutions. The job was completed with the utmost efficiency and with the least upheaval possible. I highly recommend Craft Kitchens. Sheila, Wapping, London

Donal came to our attention as a recommendation – and highly recommended at that!From the initial discussion, Donal was able to produce an image of the design and work with us to ensure all of our (many) requirements were met. He was able to give valuable advice and guidance based on his extensive design knowledge.When it came to the installation, Donal and his team were excellent. Donal’s engineering skills allow him to think through problems and design bespoke solutions. Along with his team, they produced high quality work, on time and with no fuss. The entire project went smoothly. I would highly recommend Donal.

Donal did a fantastic kitchen makeover for us. From the moment we contacted him with our ideas, he worked with us all the way to completion, taking on board all our (constantly changing) ideas, and coming up with ways to get what we wanted, within our budget. He was always open to alternatives, and kept us in the picture about costs and schedules. He is a meticulous craftsman, with an enormous pride in his work and attention to detail. It was his idea to expose a brick wall, which really is a focal feature of the kitchen. Donal is a brilliant project manager - not only co ordinating his own team, but also an external flooring supplier we were using. We were away during the kitchen refurbishment, and we felt completely confident with Donal in charge. He was always available on the phone and with photos etc. !8 months later and our kitchen still looks superb. I would highly recommend him!

I can't speak highly enough of Donal. He completely renovated my flat in Islington and did a fabulous job! He is everything you want in a tradesman - the quality of his work is first class, he has great ideas, listens well, is polite, has great comms, turns up on time, charges in line with his quotes...I could go on & on. I have no hesitation in recommending him!

Donal did a wonderful job on our kitchen renovation. His is an absolute perfectionist which is exactly what you need when having a new kitchen fitted! Also great at communication which wasn't the impression I got from others when initially getting quotes. I was dreading the upheaval of having the work done while living in the house with my family, but it was so much less stressful than I thought it would be thanks to Donal being organised and considerate.
He has also come back a couple of times after finishing the job when lights have malfunctioned and has managed to fix the problem which I really appreciated.
