Bespoke kitchen design and installation in Kentish Town. Trusted, professional, 30+ years' hands-on experience.
GS Renovation designs and builds kitchens across Kentish Town, from the closet-wing galleys of NW5 terraces to bright open-plan rooms near Hampstead Heath. With more than 30 years of experience, we handle the cabinetry, worktops, plumbing, electrics and any structural knock-through as a single project, so your new kitchen arrives finished and fully working.

The most requested Kentish Town kitchen opens the rear of a Victorian terrace, knocking the kitchen through to the middle reception or into a side-return infill to create one sociable kitchen-diner. That dividing wall is almost always load-bearing, so we install a steel beam sized by a structural engineer and signed off by building control. The result floods the back of these NW5 houses with light where a dark galley once stood.
Around the structure we fit the kitchen itself. Quartz, granite or composite worktops suit the hard-wearing life of a family kitchen, integrated appliances keep the lines clean, and considered task and feature lighting lifts the space. We route the new plumbing and electrics, tile the splashbacks and floors, and make sure the notifiable electrical work is certified under Building Regulations before we hand the room back.
Kentish Town terraces come with chimney breasts, alcoves and tall ceilings that rarely match off-the-shelf units, so made-to-measure cabinetry earns its place. We plan the layout around the awkward returns and the closet-wing footprint, using full-height storage to reclaim space and framing the original features rather than fighting them. Whether the look is handleless contemporary or a classic Shaker, we build it to fit the house.
A kitchen refit is more than boxes on a wall, and internal kitchen work needs no planning permission, which keeps things straightforward. We coordinate the plumbing moves, the extraction and ventilation, the electrical circuits and the tiling in one sequence so the trades never trip over each other. In an occupied NW5 home we protect the rest of the house, contain the dust and keep the disruption to the shortest possible window.
Kentish Town owners choose GS Renovation because one team delivers the whole kitchen, including any steel beam knock-through, the services and the finish, all certified. Thirty years across NW5 terraces means we work cleanly in occupied homes, size the structure correctly, and design around the period proportions so the finished kitchen fits the house and lasts.
George was brilliant. Lovely bloke, very reasonably priced and a perfectionist to boot. He completed our small kitchen renovation with care and great attention to detail. I've already recommended him to others.
Splendid job on our new kitchen refurb, including new flooring, moving the services, installing RSJ and preparing space for new back doors… George was always friendly, communicative and has an excellent attention to detail, ensuring everything is finished to a high standard.
Giorgio is an excellent and intelligent workman, and with very reasonable prices!… He paid a lot of attention to detail that is not common at all, and the final result was immaculate. Highly recommended!

A like-for-like kitchen renovation in Kentish Town does not need planning permission. You will need building regulations sign-off for electrical work, and for structural changes such as removing a wall to open up the space. We manage building control on your behalf throughout.
Yes. A large share of Kentish Town's homes are Victorian and Edwardian terraced properties, and we renovate them regularly. We plan each kitchen renovation around their particular characteristics, such as solid brick walls, rear closet wings, side returns and original period features, so the result suits the building and meets building control.
Yes, it is one of our most common NW5 projects. The wall between the kitchen and the rear reception is usually load-bearing, so it needs a steel beam sized by a structural engineer and signed off by building control, plus a party wall notice where the wall is shared with a neighbour. We manage the structure and the new kitchen together as one job.
