GS Renovation designs and fits kitchens across Chislehurst, working within the bay-fronted Victorian and Edwardian terraces and the larger homes near the common. With over 30 years of experience in BR7 and across Bromley, we handle the cabinetry, worktops, services and any structural knock-through as a single project.
Open-plan kitchen-diners in Chislehurst terraces
The most popular kitchen project in a Chislehurst terrace opens the rear closet wing kitchen through to the middle room, creating a bright kitchen-diner across the back of the house. The wall between them is usually load-bearing, so a steel beam sized by a structural engineer replaces it, propped during the work and signed off by Bromley Council building control. Many homeowners combine this with a side-return infill to gain even more width.
With the space opened up, we design the kitchen around how the room will actually be used, an island or run of units, a dining area and good natural light. We fit quartz, granite or composite worktops, integrate the appliances, and run the plumbing, electrics, tiling and lighting in-house. Kitchen electrics are notifiable under building regulations, so the wiring is certified as part of the job, leaving you with paperwork that stands up at resale.
Bespoke kitchens for Chislehurst period homes
The chimney breasts, alcoves and tall ceilings of Chislehurst's period homes suit made-to-measure cabinetry far better than standard flat-pack units. We plan the layout around the awkward returns and the existing window positions, using the alcoves for full-height storage and building units that follow the real dimensions of the room. Whether the look is a classic Shaker kitchen or a handleless contemporary design, it is built to fit the house rather than fight it.
In a terrace where the kitchen stays in the rear closet wing, careful planning matters even more, because the footprint is tight and the light comes from one side. We make the most of every wall, choose worktops that lift the space, and position the lighting to work in the evening as well as by day. The result is a hardworking kitchen that suits the proportions of a BR7 period home.
