GS Renovation designs and builds kitchens throughout Hoxton, from compact galley layouts to open-plan kitchen-diners in the borough's Victorian and Edwardian terraces. With over 30 years of work across N1, we handle the cabinetry, the worktops, the plumbing and electrics, and any structural knock-through as a single project, so the room comes together without you juggling separate trades.
Open-plan kitchen-diners in Hoxton terraces
The kitchen in a Hoxton terrace usually sits in the rear closet wing, cramped and cut off from the rest of the ground floor. The most popular project we do here opens that wall through to the middle reception, creating a bright, sociable kitchen-diner. Because the wall is load-bearing, we install a steel beam sized by a structural engineer and signed off by Hackney building control, and often widen the space by infilling the side return at the same time.
With the space opened up, we plan the layout around how the room will actually be used, from the run of units to the island or breakfast bar. We fit quartz, granite or composite worktops, integrate the appliances, and run the plumbing, electrics, tiling and lighting in-house. Every notifiable electrical circuit is tested and certified under the building regulations, so the finished kitchen is safe, properly ventilated and built to last.
Bespoke kitchens for Hoxton period homes
Victorian and Edwardian terraces come with chimney breasts, alcoves and tall ceilings that rarely suit off-the-shelf units. In these Hoxton homes we plan made-to-measure cabinetry that works with the awkward corners and original proportions, using full-height storage to make the most of the ceiling height. Where the kitchen sits in a lower-ground or rear return with limited light, we design the layout and lighting to bring the space forward.
Whether you want a handleless contemporary kitchen or a classic Shaker design, we build to suit the age and feel of the house. We move or add plumbing and waste runs for sinks, dishwashers and the boiler, upgrade the electrics for modern appliances and lighting, and finish with splashback tiling and considered task lighting. The result is a kitchen that fits the character of the terrace rather than fighting it.
