Bespoke kitchens for your home in Wandsworth
What it is made from
Moisture-resistant MDF
We use moisture-resistant MDF for many kitchen doors and panels, as it stays stable and takes paint well.
Hand-painted finish
Some people like the character of a hand-painted kitchen in an older home.
About our bespoke kitchens in Wandsworth
Many people want a tall larder for food, tins and small appliances. A larder can have shelves, deep drawers and racks, planned around what you store. In an alcove or at the end of a run, it can use space that would otherwise be wasted. Most enquiries start with extra cupboard space and a painted kitchen in a colour you choose; the furniture is made from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, spray-painted or hand-painted.
Wall cabinets need firm fixings, and older internal walls can be lath and plaster rather than brick. Since a large share of homes around Wandsworth are that old, we check each wall before wall cabinets are planned. Where a wall will not carry the weight, open shelves or tall floor-standing cupboards can take over.
We write quotes in plain English. You will see what will be made, the boards used and the finish, taken from what we agreed at the visit.

Kitchens in Wandsworth homes
Homes built before 1919 make up about 49% of the housing in the area around Wandsworth, with about 27% built since 2000, in the VOA’s 2025 council tax stock figures. The age of a home tells us a lot about its walls, floors and ceilings, and so about how kitchens are fixed and fitted. The National Heritage List has 39 entries within half a mile of the centre of Wandsworth. Older homes nearby may have original joinery, shutters or panelling worth keeping, and kitchens can be designed to work around them. The boroughs run controlled parking zones across much of inner London. That normally means a van in Wandsworth needs a visitor permit, a paid bay or a bay suspension through the council. It helps to tell us about parking at the design visit.
For an older house near St Anne's Church, cabinets will be scribed to walls and floors that are rarely true. Near listed buildings like Church of St Anne, less than half a mile east of the centre of Wandsworth, older homes may keep original joinery that kitchens can be designed around. If your own home is listed, check with the council before fixing into original features.
Wandsworth is in the London Borough of Wandsworth, about 1 mile north-east of Clapham Junction. We can visit homes in Wandsworth on weekdays, or on a Saturday by prior arrangement. Our work takes in places right across the rest of London.
Design visits and fitting in SW18, SW15 and SW11 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. Whether you live on a street such as Alma Road, Marl Road and Knoll Road or on one nearby, we can visit to measure up for bespoke kitchens. We also cover the places around Wandsworth: Southfields (1 mile south), Earlsfield (1 mile south), Hurlingham (1 mile north), Clapham Junction (1 mile north-east) and Battersea (1 mile north-east). We also make bespoke kitchens in nearby places such as Tooting (2 miles south-east), Tooting Bec (2 miles south-east), Balham (2 miles south-east), Furzedown (3 miles south-east), Streatham Park (3 miles south-east) and Roehampton (2 miles west).
What’s near Wandsworth
In Wandsworth, that includes homes near Emanuel School, Spread Eagle pub and Ashcroft Technology Academy, among other places. There’s a railway station in Wandsworth itself: Wandsworth Town station. Well-known places in the area include Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability (1 mile west) and Southside Wandsworth (within half a mile west).
How fitting day works
In older rooms, the furniture normally has to meet skirting, picture rails, cornice or coving. We cut and scribe the furniture around them on site, so it looks as though it was always there. The time the fitting takes depends on the size of the kitchen and the design, and your quote sets out the fitting days. Hallways in period houses are often narrow, and the stairs turn sharply, so kitchens are made in sections sized to get through. Floors and stair carpets are protected on the way in and out, and the sections are joined and scribed in the room.
- You let us know about the kitchen and where it is in your home.
- We visit to plan the layout and check how the cabinets will get into the room. Let us know about parking too, as a van may need a visitor permit, a paid bay or a bay suspension.
- We send a quote in writing.
- In our workshop we build the kitchen from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, in pieces that suit the route in.
- We carry everything in and fit the cabinets, while your plumber, an engineer on the Gas Safe Register and your electrician do the plumbing, gas and electrics.
Before we arrive
- Empty the space we’ll be working in
- Get any new sockets or wiring done by your electrician before fitting day
- Let us know about any meters, fuse boards or boilers in the area

Advice
Flats, conversions and leaseholders
A lot of London’s terraced houses are now converted flats, which often brings a shared hall and tight turns on the stairs. Each section is sized with that in mind, after measuring the route at the measuring visit.
Landlords furnishing a let use fitted furniture too. It’s made from the same moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood as any of our work.

Common questions about bespoke kitchens
My home in Wandsworth 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. Skirting, picture rails and cornices are met neatly or cut around. Older walls can be solid brick or lath and plaster, and the fixings are chosen to suit.
Can you fit furniture in a home close to Wandsworth Town station?
Yes. We cover the whole of London. You can message us from the contact page to arrange a design visit.
Can the fitting be on a Saturday?
Yes, Saturdays are possible by prior arrangement. Just mention it when you get in touch, and we’ll see what we can do.
Can I have a kitchen island?
If the room is big enough, yes. At the design visit we check the clearances around it. If it would crowd the kitchen, we will say so.
Does my lease affect fitted furniture?
Possibly. Some leases need the building owner’s consent before you make alterations, including fixing furniture to the walls. Check your lease, as we cannot advise on it.
How long does fitting take?
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.
