Kitchens in Kilburn range from galley spaces in red-brick mansion blocks to rear kitchens in the Victorian terraces near Queen's Park. GS Renovation designs and fits both, and with 30+ years in NW6 we bring the cabinetry, worktops, plumbing, electrics and any structural knock-through together into one finished room.
Open-Plan Kitchen-Diners in Kilburn Terraces
The kitchen-diner is the project we are asked for most often in Kilburn's terraces. Knocking the rear kitchen through to the middle reception opens a bright, sociable space, but that dividing wall is usually load-bearing, so we install a steel beam sized by a structural engineer and signed off by Brent Council building control. Where the wall is shared with next door, you serve the party wall notices before any demolition begins.
Once the opening is formed we fit the new kitchen around it, with quartz, granite or composite worktops, integrated appliances and considered task and mood lighting. In a mansion flat the story is different: an open-plan layout may be limited by the leasehold and the sound insulation between homes, so we design within what the freeholder allows. Either way, the plumbing, electrics and tiling are handled in-house and certified where the regulations require.
Fitted Kitchens for Kilburn Flats
Mansion-block kitchens in NW6 tend to be self-contained rooms with solid walls, high ceilings and awkward corners left by old chimney breasts and service ducts. Made-to-measure cabinetry suits these proportions far better than off-the-shelf units, letting us use every alcove and run tall storage up towards the ceiling. We plan the layout around the existing soil and water pipes, which in a flat are rarely easy to move far.
From handleless contemporary designs to classic Shaker styles, we build to suit the age of the home and the way you cook. Because kitchen electrics are notifiable under building regulations, the new circuits, sockets and extract are installed and certified correctly. We coordinate deliveries through communal entrances, protect shared hallways and keep the mess contained, so a kitchen refit in a busy mansion block causes as little disruption to your neighbours as possible.
