With over 30 years in the borough, we handle everything from the cabinetry and worktops to the plumbing, electrics and any structural knock-through, delivering open, sociable kitchens that suit these period homes near Fulham Broadway and Parsons Green.
Open-plan kitchen-diners in Fulham SW6
The classic Fulham kitchen project opens the rear of a terrace, knocking the kitchen through to the middle reception room, or infilling the side return beside the closet wing, to create a bright, open-plan kitchen-diner. Because that dividing wall is almost always load-bearing, we install a steel beam sized by a structural engineer and signed off by building control, so the space above stays fully supported.
With the wall out, we plan the new layout around the reworked footprint, positioning the run of units, the island and the dining area to make the most of the light. We handle the moved plumbing and drainage, the new electrics and the rooflights or bi-fold doors that often finish these SW6 conversions. The steelwork and the kitchen are delivered by the same team, so the two never fall out of step.
Bespoke kitchens for Fulham period homes
Fulham's Victorian and Edwardian houses have alcoves, chimney breasts and good ceiling heights that suit made-to-measure cabinetry rather than off-the-shelf boxes. We plan the units around these period proportions, whether you want a handleless contemporary look or a classic in-frame Shaker kitchen, so the fit is tight and the room feels considered rather than crammed.
We fit quartz, granite or composite worktops, integrate the appliances, and handle the tiling, splashbacks and layered lighting that lift the finished room. All the plumbing and electrics are done in-house, with any new kitchen circuits notified under building regulations. Working in an occupied SW6 home, we protect the rest of the house, keep dust down and hand back a kitchen that is ready to cook in.
Kitchens that follow a side return infill
A good number of SW6 kitchens start as a side return infill, and the kitchen only makes sense once you know what the shell is doing. The structural opening, the rooflight positions, the drainage that has to be moved out of the new floor and the position of the rear doors are all fixed before a single cabinet is drawn. Get that order wrong and you end up with an island under a downpipe.
We design the two together. Steel positions decide where tall units can go, rooflights decide where you will not want a wall cabinet, and the new floor build up sets the finished level between the old house and the new space. Once the shell is watertight and plastered, the kitchen fit runs as normal. Working to one programme also means the electrician wires the extension and the kitchen in a single first fix rather than coming back twice.
