GS Renovation designs and builds kitchens across Dalston, from the bay-fronted Victorian terraces of E8 to converted apartments near Broadway Market and London Fields. With more than 30 years in Hackney, we handle the cabinetry, the worktops, the services and any structural knock-through as one project, so the whole kitchen is delivered by a single accountable team.
Open-plan kitchen-diners in Dalston homes
The most requested Dalston kitchen opens the rear of the terrace, knocking the kitchen through to the middle room or into an infilled side return to create one bright, sociable kitchen-diner. Because that dividing wall is usually load-bearing, we install a steel beam sized by a structural engineer and signed off by Hackney building control, then rebuild the space around the new opening.
With the structure in, we fit the kitchen itself, running new plumbing and electrics, integrating appliances, laying tiling and planning lighting that suits the deeper, open-plan layout. In E8's solid-wall terraces the rear footprint is often tight, so we design the run and island carefully to keep circulation clear while making the most of the light from the garden.
Bespoke kitchens for E8 period proportions
Dalston's Victorian and Edwardian houses have chimney breasts, alcoves and tall ceilings that suit made-to-measure cabinetry rather than off-the-shelf units squeezed into awkward gaps. We plan around these features, choosing quartz, granite or composite worktops to match the finish, whether that is a handleless contemporary look or a classic Shaker kitchen in keeping with the age of the house.
Every element is handled in-house, from the joinery and worktops to the plumbing, electrics and tiling, and any notifiable electrical work is certified under building regulations. That means one team fits the kitchen, connects the services and finishes the tiling and lighting, so you are not coordinating separate fitters, plumbers and electricians across an occupied E8 home.
