GS Renovation designs and fits kitchens throughout Deptford, from the Georgian and Regency townhouses near Telegraph Hill to the warehouse conversions of SE8. With over 30 years of experience, we handle the cabinetry, worktops, services and any structural work as one project, creating kitchens that suit both period proportions and modern open-plan living.
Open-plan kitchen-diners in Deptford homes
The most requested kitchen project in Deptford opens the rear of a period townhouse, knocking the kitchen through to the adjoining room to make a sociable kitchen-diner. That dividing wall is nearly always load-bearing, so we install a steel beam sized by a structural engineer and signed off by building control. Where the wall is shared with next door, we also serve the necessary party wall notices before the opening is cut.
With the space opened up, we fit quality units, quartz, granite or composite worktops, integrated appliances and considered lighting. We route the plumbing and electrics to suit the new layout, tile the splashbacks and floors, and finish everything to a high standard. Working in solid-wall Georgian and Regency houses, we plan around chimney breasts, uneven floors and the tighter rear footprints common in SE8 rather than forcing a standard template onto the room.
Bespoke kitchens for Deptford period proportions
Deptford's older townhouses have tall ceilings, deep alcoves and chimney breasts that rarely suit off-the-shelf units. Made-to-measure, in-frame cabinetry lets us use the full height of the room and fit the awkward corners that period walls create. In lower-ground kitchens, common in these Georgian houses, we plan the layout, lighting and ventilation carefully around the reduced head height and the limited natural light.
Whether you want a handleless contemporary finish or a classic Shaker kitchen, we build to suit the age and character of the house. The kitchen electrics are notifiable under building regulations, so the wiring is carried out and certified correctly. We manage the plumbing, tiling, worktops and appliance integration in-house, so the whole kitchen is delivered by one team and finished to a consistent standard.
