Bespoke kitchens in Broom Hill: what you get
We make kitchens to fit the room, not a catalogue of set sizes. Every unit is sized from careful measurements taken during the design visit, so the runs fit neatly from wall to wall. You decide the layout, the storage and the colour with us before anything is made in our workshop. We make kitchens from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, finished by spray or by hand, and the usual reasons to get in touch are cabinets for a narrow kitchen and a painted dresser for the kitchen.
A good part of the housing around Broom Hill is interwar, semi-detached or detached. Many 1930s houses started with a small kitchen at the back that has since been extended or knocked through. The cabinets are designed for the room as it is today, with an island where space allows.
A quote in writing follows the design visit. It describes the design we discussed, the materials and the finish, so it is clear what’s included.

Pricing bespoke kitchens in Broom Hill
Each piece is designed for one room, so each price is too. What affects it comes down to:
- Parking and unloading on your street
- The number of doors and drawers
- Access to the room, such as stairs, lifts and narrow halls
- The internal fittings
No two rooms cost the same to furnish, because size, layout and finish change from job to job. Spray painting and hand painting are different processes, which affects the cost. The figure comes in your written quote after the design visit.
Helping us understand the room
To give us a picture of the room, it helps to include:
- Pictures showing the full wall, from floor to ceiling
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Radiators, sockets, pipes or meters on or near the wall
- Whether it is a house or a flat, and if there are stairs or a lift

Broom Hill homes and bespoke kitchens
The biggest shares of homes in the neighbourhood around Broom Hill were built between 1919 and 1939 (about 39%) and between 1945 and 1972 (about 31%), going by the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax figures. Knowing roughly when a home was built helps, because walls and fixings change from one era to the next. 6 conservation areas have at least part of their area less than a mile from the middle of Broom Hill. Historic England says England has around 10,000, and the controls mainly cover the outside of buildings. The ULEZ (Ultra Low Emission Zone) now covers the whole of London, Bromley included. It applies to every van that comes to fit furniture in Broom Hill. Access and parking are talked through at the design visit.
For families living near Perry Hall Primary School, a kitchen with a spot for school letters and lunch boxes makes mornings easier. If you live in a flat close to Orpington station, kitchens are made in sections sized for the stairs, landings and lift, so measuring the route matters as much as measuring the room.
Broom Hill is about 1 mile north-east of Orpington, within the London Borough of Bromley. From period terraces to newer flats in Broom Hill, the furniture is designed around the room as we find it. We cover places right across Bromley, from the busiest high streets to quiet residential roads.
In BR6 and BR5, the process is the same as anywhere else in London. Our area takes in homes on streets like New Road, Irene Road and Sandy Lane, along with the roads around them, for bespoke kitchens and any of our other fitted furniture. If you are just outside Broom Hill, we also cover Crofton (1 mile south-west), Petts Wood (1 mile north-west), Locksbottom (2 miles west), Farnborough (2 miles south-west) and Green Street Green (2 miles south). Across the rest of Bromley, our area takes in Bromley (4 miles west), Beckenham (6 miles west), Chislehurst (3 miles north-west), Penge (7 miles west), Anerley (8 miles west) and Crystal Palace (8 miles west).
Near you in Broom Hill
The streets we cover here include those near The Cricketers pub, The Priory School and Harris Academy Orpington and the streets around them. Broom Hill’s nearest station is Orpington station, roughly 0.6 miles south-west of the centre. A little further out are Orpington Hospital (1.3 miles south) and London Borough of Bromley Museum (a few minutes’ walk south-east).
Made for the room, or bought in a box?
Choosing bespoke means a design visit, a quote, workshop time and fitting, rather than ordering from a range. In return, the storage, layout and finish are designed for you. Ready-made furniture rarely suits a bay, a box room or a bulkhead over the stairs, and those are common in interwar houses. Fitted furniture is made around them.
How it’s painted is part of the price: spray painting happens in the workshop, and hand painting can be done in your home. Your choice, along with the size and the fittings, is reflected in the written quote.

Questions from Broom Hill
Do I need permission for fitted furniture in a conservation area?
Not normally. Conservation area controls are mainly about the outside of buildings, so fitted furniture inside a house does not normally need planning permission. If your home is listed, works inside that affect its character can need listed building consent, so check with the council first. If you’re unsure, the council can confirm.
Can you fit furniture in a home close to Orpington station?
Yes, homes across Bromley and the rest of London are within the area we cover. You can send us a few details through our contact form to arrange a design visit.
Who chooses the colour?
You choose it. The paint colour is agreed with you before anything is painted.
Can I send pictures before the visit?
Yes, they help. A few pictures of the room, from floor to ceiling, tell us a lot, especially with rough measurements. To send them, message us from the contact page.
Do you work on Saturdays?
Yes, we can arrange Saturdays. Let us know when you first get in touch.
How do you get large furniture into a flat?
The furniture is built in sections, sized for the route along with the room itself. At the design visit, we measure the route along with the room itself.
Do you need bespoke kitchens in Broom Hill?
Uneven walls and floors make standard kitchens hard to fit. Cabinets end up with gaps or tilted lines, while scribed and levelled cabinets keep the lines true.
If you recognise any of these, it is worth talking to us:
- Open shelves with cupboards below
- Cabinets for a narrow kitchen
- Room for everything in the kitchen
- A kitchen finished in your colours
Close to Jubilee Country Park? A cupboard by the back door for boots and coats can be built in with the kitchen.
Before you choose who makes it
- Whether they can show you real projects they’ve done
- How doors and drawers are fitted
- Have they thought about parking near you?
- Whether the quote says what the furniture is made from
Materials and finishes
Doors and drawer fronts
Painted doors can be refreshed later if your taste changes.
Moisture-resistant MDF
MDF gives a smooth surface for painted doors, and the moisture-resistant grade suits a kitchen.
What happens on fitting day
You will not need to do much on the day. We need someone to let us in at the start, and it helps to have the room cleared beforehand, as agreed at the measuring visit. From there, we protect the floors, bring the furniture in and get on with the fitting. The time the fitting takes depends on the size of the kitchen and the design, and the fitting days are agreed in your quote. In a 1920s or 1930s house, the hall and stairs are usually simple, though we still measure the route in not just the room. Kitchens arrive in sections and are assembled in place, with floors protected throughout.
- You tell us about the kitchen and where it is in your home.
- At the design visit we measure the kitchen and the route in, including stairs, doorways and any lift.
- A written quote follows, covering the cabinets, materials and finish.
- In our workshop we build the kitchen from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, in pieces that suit the route in.
- The cabinets are fitted in your home with a spray-painted or hand-painted finish; plumbing, gas and electrics are for your plumber, an engineer on the Gas Safe Register and your electrician.
How to prepare
- Leave a clear route from the front door to the room
- Keep pets in another room while we work
- Clear the walls of pictures and shelves
