Bespoke kitchens for homes in Hammersmith
Older London homes are rarely simple places to fit a kitchen. Walls lean, corners aren’t square and floors slope, which shows up quickly along a run of cabinets. Each cabinet is trimmed to the wall and levelled on a plinth or adjustable feet, so the worktop you choose can sit level. We make kitchens from moisture-resistant MDF and strong birch plywood, with a painted finish, and the things people most often want solved are a painted dresser for the kitchen and a painted kitchen in a colour you choose.
In a house built before 1919, a wall that looks solid may be lath and plaster. Since a large share of homes around Hammersmith are that old, each wall is checked before deciding where heavy cabinets go. If a wall cannot take wall cabinets, tall larders or a dresser standing on the floor can do the job.
If the job needs another trade, like an electrician or a plumber, we will tell you, so it can be arranged before fitting day. The quote itself covers our work, from the design to the materials and finish.

Questions from Hammersmith
I live near Kensington Olympia station. Is that in your area?
Yes, homes across Hammersmith and Fulham and the rest of London are within the area we cover. To get started, you can send us a few details through our contact form with some details about the room.
My home in Hammersmith is a period house with walls that aren’t straight. Is that a problem?
Yes, that’s normal in older houses: each piece is scribed to the wall and levelled at the base. We also work around skirting boards, picture rails and cornices. Fixings are chosen for the wall, whether solid brick or lath and plaster.
How much time does fitting need?
How long the fitting takes depends on how many units there are and how the room is laid out, and the fitting days are agreed in your quote. We will talk it through during the design visit.
What are your kitchens made from?
MDF for smooth painted parts and birch plywood for drawer boxes and shelves. We spray paint in the workshop or hand paint, in colours agreed with you.
Does fitted furniture need planning permission?
Not typically. Conservation area controls are largely about how buildings look from outside, and furniture inside a house does not normally need it. Listed buildings are different: check with the council’s conservation officer first.
What does a bespoke kitchen cost?
Prices are quoted for your room, once we’ve measured and talked through the design. A small galley and a large kitchen with a larder and island are very different jobs, so we quote once we’ve measured. To get started, send us a few details through our contact form.
Kitchens in Hammersmith homes
Homes built before 1919 make up about 68% of the housing in the streets around Hammersmith, with about 9% built between 1945 and 1972, going by the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax figures. We take that into account at the measuring visit, since older and newer walls take different fixings. Hammersmith is partly covered by a conservation area, going by Historic England’s data. Planning controls in conservation areas are mainly concerned with the outside of buildings, so fitting furniture inside a house does not normally need permission. If you are unsure, check with the council before work starts. About 45% of households in the area around Hammersmith live in purpose-built flats, the 2021 Census shows. For a flat, kitchens are made in sections sized for the stairs, the lift and the doors. Many blocks have rules on lift booking and working hours, so check with the managing agent before fitting day.
If your home is one of the older houses near Church of the Holy Innocents, cabinets will be scribed to walls and floors that are rarely true. Kelmscott House, about 0.5 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area. For a period home anywhere nearby, a narrow back addition or an old chimney breast may shape the kitchen layout.
Hammersmith is part of the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, about 2 miles south-east of Fulham. Design visits and fitting in Hammersmith can be on a Saturday, by prior arrangement. We list Hammersmith among 16 places we cover in Hammersmith and Fulham.
Postcode districts we cover here for bespoke kitchens: W6, W14, W12 and W4. Our area takes in homes on streets such as The Square, Ravenscourt Square and Westcroft Square, whether you want bespoke kitchens or another piece made for the room. Close by, we also work in Brackenbury Village (1 mile north-west), Brook Green (1 mile east), North End (1 mile east), West Kensington (1 mile east) and Old Chiswick (1 mile south-west). Elsewhere in Hammersmith and Fulham, we also cover Fulham (2 miles south-east), Parsons Green (2 miles south-east), Walham Green (2 miles south-east), West Brompton (2 miles south-east), Hurlingham (2 miles south-east) and Chelsea Harbour (2 miles south-east).
Around Hammersmith
We fit furniture in homes around The Duke of Hammersmith pub and Polish Library POSK in London, among other places. Hammersmith’s nearest station is Kensington Olympia station, about 0.8 miles east of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include West London Hospital (within half a mile south-east) and Livat Hammersmith (within half a mile south). Not far away are Campden Hill and WWT London Wetland Centre.
How fitting works for bespoke kitchens
Finishing comes last. With a spray finish from the workshop, there is usually only filling and touching up to do in the room; hand painting, if that’s what you chose, can be done in place once everything is fitted. The finish is always the one agreed in your quote. In houses converted into flats, the route in may include a shared hall and stairs, so neighbours may appreciate a note before fitting day. Each section is sized for the tightest door or turn. Saturday fitting is possible by prior arrangement.
- You tell us about the room and how you use it. Larders, dressers and islands can all be part of it, where space allows.
- We visit to measure and go through the design and storage.
- We send a quote in writing setting out the cabinets, materials and finish.
- We build and finish the kitchen in our workshop.
- Fitting day: we fit the cabinets, and your plumber, electrician and a Gas Safe registered engineer handle the services.
Getting ready for fitting day
- Take down pictures, mirrors and shelves from the wall
- Clear the hallway and stairs so the sections can come through
- Have your electrician move any sockets or switches beforehand
Arranging a design visit
Prices are quoted for your room, once we’ve measured and talked through the design. Each room is different, so we quote after seeing it, once the room is measured and the design talked through. For a quote, use our contact form.

What it costs
The price for your room depends on:
- Doors and drawers, and how many
- Walls and floors that are out of level or out of square
- Parking near your home
- Whether you choose a spray or hand-painted finish
No two rooms cost the same to furnish, because size, layout and finish change from job to job. A spray finish and a hand-painted finish involve different work, and that shows in the price. You will see the figure in your written quote, after the design visit.
Getting in touch
Some details help us understand the job before we visit. It’s useful to include:
- Photos of the whole wall or room, including the floor and ceiling
- Your postcode and the borough
- Rough measurements: width, height and depth
- Whether it is a house or a flat, and if there are stairs or a lift
We quote once we’ve seen the room. At the visit, we measure, look at the walls and floors and talk through the design with you, and the written quote comes after. There’s no price list: each design is priced in writing after we’ve seen the space. To arrange a visit, fill in our short enquiry form.

What prompts bespoke kitchens in Hammersmith
Often the call comes after building work has opened up the space. A new room needs a kitchen planned for its shape and light, and building work itself is for your builder.
Common reasons to get in touch include:
- Spray-painted or hand-painted cabinets
- A dresser that suits a period house
- A larder for food and small appliances
- Cabinets for a narrow kitchen
Close to Brook Green? A cupboard by the back door for boots and coats can be built in with the kitchen.
What to check before you book
- Whether you will get a quote in writing, not just a figure
- Where they’ll park and unload
- Can you see real work of theirs?
- Whether the finish is set out in the quote
Before and after fitting day
The finish lasts best with a little care. These practical tips help:
- Check stairs, hallways and lifts for access
- Have damp sorted before fitting
- Line up your plumber, electrician and Gas Safe registered engineer early
- Give the paint time to cure fully
Doors are hung and adjusted when we fit them. Houses move a little with the seasons, so hinges allow small adjustments later.
Measure the route into the kitchen as well as the room. We make the cabinets in sections that fit through the doors and up the stairs, so let us know about tight turns or small lifts.
Is bespoke worth it?
Choosing bespoke means a design visit, a quote, workshop time and fitting, rather than ordering from a range. What you get is a kitchen planned around how you cook and live. The two recesses beside a chimney breast are seldom an identical size, and standard units bought as a pair rarely suit both. Each side can be made to its own size.
Getting to the room affects the job as well. Narrow halls, tight stairs or a small lift may mean the furniture is made in more sections, which the quote allows for. Prices are quoted for your room, once we’ve measured and talked through the design.
