Questions we are often asked
Is Northumberland Park in the area you cover for bespoke kitchens?
Yes, we work across Haringey, Northumberland Park included, and across the rest of London. You can fill in our short enquiry form to arrange a design visit.
I live in a flat in Northumberland Park. How will the furniture get up the stairs?
At the design visit, we measure the way in as well as the room. Kitchens are built in our workshop in sections sized to fit that route, then assembled in your flat. If your building has rules on lift booking or working hours, or your lease needs consent for alterations, it’s worth checking those early.
What happens when you come to measure?
We take full measurements, look at the walls and floors and work through the design together. We’ll also ask about access and parking, and afterwards we send a written quote.
Do you work on Saturdays?
Yes, we can arrange Saturdays. Just mention it when you get in touch, and we will see what we can do.
What finishes do you offer?
There are two options: spray painting, done in the workshop for a smooth, even finish, or hand painting, which can be done on site. Your quote sets out which you have chosen.
Does fitted furniture need planning permission?
Typically not. Inside a house, fitted furniture doesn’t normally need planning permission. Listed buildings can require listed building consent for works that affect their character, so ask the council’s conservation officer.
Bespoke kitchens in Northumberland Park
We often use moisture-resistant MDF in kitchens, because it copes with a room that gets steamy. Birch plywood is strong and holds screws well. Cabinets are spray painted in the workshop or hand painted, in the colours you choose. Most enquiries start with open shelves with cupboards below and a painted kitchen in a colour you choose, and the answer is built in our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, finished by spray or by hand.
Where the sink, cooker and boiler can go often depends on where the pipes and power already are. For a kitchen in Northumberland Park, the layout is planned with the existing services in mind. Your plumber, electrician and a Gas Safe engineer do any moving.
A quote in writing follows the design visit. It sets out the design we’ve talked through, the materials and the finish, so it’s clear what’s included.

Why people ask for bespoke kitchens in Northumberland Park
Many people come to us because a standard kitchen does not suit their room. Standard units are made in fixed sizes, leaving gaps at the ends and above. Bespoke cabinets are built to the real sizes instead.
Most of the enquiries we get are about things like these:
- More storage in a small kitchen
- A larder for food and small appliances
- A kitchen planned around your appliances
- A painted kitchen in a colour you choose
For a family home near Lea Valley Primary School, a drawer set aside for lunch boxes and water bottles keeps mornings calmer.
Before you hire any carpenter
- Which materials they’ll use, named in the quote
- Can you see real work of theirs?
- Whether the quote follows a visit to your home
- Will the doors close with even gaps?
DIY, flat-pack or bespoke
It’s worth being honest about cost: flat-pack is normally cheaper to buy. Bespoke makes more sense where the room is awkward, the space is valuable or you want the furniture to look built in.
Flat-pack and off-the-shelf furniture has its place. If the walls are straight and the space suits standard sizes, it often does the job.

What else we make in Northumberland Park
Fitting day, step by step
On the morning of the fitting, we start by protecting your floors and the route from the front door to the room. The sections made in our workshop come in next, one at a time. The time the fitting takes depends on the size of the kitchen and the design, and your quote sets out the fitting days. If you live in a block, check any rules on lifts, deliveries and working hours; for a house, steps, paths and parking are the things to mention. Either way, the day is planned at the measuring visit. Saturday fitting is possible by prior arrangement.
- First, you tell us about the room.
- The design visit covers measuring and planning the layout, where space allows.
- A written quote is sent to you.
- The kitchen is made in our workshop.
- We fit the kitchen in your home, while your plumber, a Gas Safe engineer and your electrician do the plumbing, gas and electrics. It’s useful to have those trades booked in good time.
Before fitting day
- Get any new sockets or wiring done by your electrician before fitting day
- Let us know if your street is in a controlled parking zone
- Leave a clear route from the front door to the room
Ask for a quote
The quote is built from the design visit. We measure the room properly, check how the walls and floors run and talk through the design with you. A written quote follows the visit. To book one, fill in our short enquiry form.
Related advice
Flats, conversions and lettings
Conversions and newer flats often have stud walls rather than solid brick. We choose fixings to suit the wall.
If your building is on a red route or a busy main road, unloading takes some planning. TfL runs the red routes, and the stopping rules are strict, so it is worth raising at the measuring visit.
Practical tips
Because fitted furniture stays put, a little upkeep goes a long way. Here are a few tips worth knowing:
- Have damp sorted before fitting
- Wipe up spills promptly
- Choose your appliances before the design is final
- Share the layout with your other trades
Doors are hung and adjusted when we fit them. Houses move a little with the seasons, so hinges allow small adjustments later.
Talk to your plumber, electrician and an engineer on the Gas Safe Register early. Their work and ours need to fit together, and it is easier when everyone works from the same design.
Kitchens in Northumberland Park: local notes
About 35% of the homes in the streets around Northumberland Park went up before 1919, and about 20% between 1945 and 1972, going by the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax figures. For carpentry, the era of a house is a useful clue to how square its rooms are and what its walls are made of. A conservation area lies within about a quarter of a mile of the centre of Northumberland Park, according to Historic England’s records. Being in a conservation area mainly affects changes to the outside of a building, and fitted furniture inside a house does not normally need planning permission. If in doubt, the council’s planning team can confirm. Controlled parking zones are run by the boroughs, so the rules in Haringey are set locally. Where a street in Northumberland Park is controlled, a van may need a visitor permit, a paid bay or a bay suspension from the council. It’s useful to let us know about parking at the design visit.
