GS Renovation designs and builds kitchens throughout Palmers Green, from bespoke fitted kitchens to full open-plan conversions in the area's Victorian and Edwardian terraces. With over 30 years across N13 and Enfield, we bring the cabinetry, worktops, plumbing, electrics and any structural work together as one project, so the kitchen and the space around it are finished by the same team.
Open-plan kitchen-diners in Palmers Green
The most popular kitchen job in Palmers Green opens the rear of a terrace, knocking the kitchen through to the middle reception or out into the side return to make a bright 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, and where the wall is shared you serve the party wall notice first.
With the structure open, we fit the kitchen properly around the new space. Quartz, granite or composite worktops, integrated appliances, considered task and feature lighting, tiling and the plumbing and electrics all handled in-house. Working around the solid-wall construction and the tight rear footprint of an N13 terrace, we plan the run so the finished kitchen-diner feels generous rather than crammed.
Bespoke fitted kitchens for N13 terraces
Palmers Green kitchens rarely come as neat rectangles. The closet wing, the chimney breast and the odd alcove all shape the room, which is exactly where made-to-measure cabinetry earns its place over off-the-shelf units. We plan the layout around those quirks, using the alcoves for tall storage and squaring off awkward corners so no space is lost to a standard carcass that does not quite fit.
Whether you want a handleless contemporary finish or a classic Shaker kitchen that suits an Edwardian house, we build to match the age and proportions of the property. The worktops, splashbacks, appliance integration, ventilation and lighting are all specified together, and because the electrics and plumbing are notifiable under building regulations, the wiring and any gas work are certified as part of the job.
Fitting square units into crooked rooms
Kitchen units are made square and Edwardian rooms are not. Walls bow, corners are rarely ninety degrees and floors fall away towards the back of the house, which is why a kitchen that looked straightforward on a plan can leave gaps behind the worktop and doors that fail to line up. The answer is measuring the real room, corner to corner and at three heights, before anything is ordered.
After that it is joinery. Scribed fillers take up the deviation at the ends of a run rather than in the middle where it shows. Base units are packed and levelled off the highest point of the floor, so the worktop is level even when the floor is not. End panels are cut to the wall rather than butted up against it. Bespoke cabinetry helps in a Palmers Green terrace, but careful setting out matters more, and it is what stops a fitted kitchen looking like it was dropped into the room.
