Bespoke kitchens in Wimbledon Park: local notes
About 42% of the homes in the area around Wimbledon Park went up before 1919, and about 19% between 1945 and 1972, based on the Valuation Office Agency’s 2025 council tax data. For carpentry, the era of a house is a useful clue to how square its rooms are and what its walls are made of. 14 conservation areas have at least part of their area within a mile of the centre of Wimbledon Park. England has around 10,000 in all, and their controls are mainly about the outside of buildings. About 43% of households in the neighbourhood around Wimbledon Park live in purpose-built flats, based on Census 2021. In a block, each section is sized to get up the stairs or into the lift and through the door. Many blocks have rules on lift booking and working hours, so check with the managing agent before fitting day.
For a flat near Earlsfield station, the route in is measured as well as the room, and the sections are sized to fit it. The wider area includes historic houses like Southside House, about 1.8 miles south-west. If your own home is a period one, tall ceilings can take larder cupboards right up to the top. If you live in a period home close to Church of St Luke, tall ceilings can take larder cupboards right up to the top.

Bespoke kitchens in Wimbledon Park: what you get
A larder cupboard can hold more than a run of wall units. A larder can have shelves, deep drawers and racks, planned around what you store. Built into an alcove or the end of a wall, it puts awkward space to work. Typical reasons to get in touch are a kitchen that fits an uneven room and a painted kitchen in a colour you choose; the furniture is made 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 Wimbledon Park, the layout is planned with the existing services in mind. Your plumber, electrician and a Gas Safe engineer do any moving.

FAQs: bespoke kitchens in Wimbledon Park
Will a conservation area stop me having bespoke kitchens fitted in Wimbledon Park?
Not normally. Conservation area controls are mainly about the outside of buildings, so fitted furniture inside a house doesn’t normally need planning permission. Listed buildings are different, as works inside that affect their character can need listed building consent from the council. The council’s planning or conservation team can tell you if in doubt.
Do you make bespoke kitchens for homes in Wimbledon Park?
Yes, Wimbledon Park is within the area we cover, which takes in all of Merton and the rest of London. The first step is a design visit, where we measure and discuss the design, and then we send a quote.
Do I need to be at home on fitting day?
Someone needs to be there to let us in. After that, you don’t need to stay in the room, but it helps to be around at the end.
Can the fitting be on a Saturday?
Yes, by arrangement. If a Saturday works better for you, say so when you contact us.
Can you fit cabinets to walls that are not straight?
Yes. Each cabinet is trimmed to the wall and levelled, to give a level line for the worktop. It’s one of the main reasons people choose bespoke in an older house.
What materials do you use for kitchens?
Our kitchens are made from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, then spray painted or hand painted. Your quote sets out the materials and finish.

When you need someone else
As carpenters, we leave some work to other trades. It helps to know these before you plan the job:
- Gas work, which is for an engineer on the Gas Safe Register
- Plastering, tiling or decorating
- Building work, such as removing walls
Not sure whether your space suits bespoke kitchens? You can message us from the contact page and we will tell you. How it works.
Boards, parts and finishes
- Spray-painted finish
- Islands where space allows
- Larders and dressers
- Moisture-resistant MDF
- Birch plywood
- Hand-painted finish
When is bespoke worth it?
Off-the-shelf furniture can be a sensible choice. If the walls are straight and the space suits standard sizes, it often does the job.
If you’re handy, a simple shelf or a standard wardrobe in a square room is a reasonable DIY job. It gets harder with sloping ceilings, out-of-level floors and lath-and-plaster walls, because scribing and the right fixings start to matter.
Boards, parts and paint
Birch plywood
Long kitchen shelves can sag under plates and jars, unless they’re built strong.
Doors and drawer fronts
Doors and drawer fronts can be flat, framed or panelled, painted in a colour you choose.
Tips worth knowing
People planning bespoke kitchens often ask about these. They help before and after fitting:
- Treat new paintwork gently at first
- Make sure walls are dry before cabinets go in
- Choose your appliances before the design is final
- Talk to your other trades in good time
The appliances you’ve chosen come with their own care instructions, and the worktop you chose will have its own care advice too.
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 any narrow spots.
Fitting day, step by step
Furniture made in a workshop still has to meet the room it is going into, and fitting day is where that happens. Walls in older homes are rarely flat or square, so each edge that meets a wall is scribed to follow it, until the line is tight. How long the fitting itself takes depends on the size of the kitchen and the design, and we confirm the fitting days in your quote. Clearing the room and the way in beforehand makes the day easier, including pictures on nearby walls. We cover floors and doorways first. Then the sections come in and are joined in place.
- You get in touch and let us know about the room and how you cook.
- We visit to measure the room and go through the layout, the storage and where the appliances will sit.
- You receive a written quote for the kitchen cabinets. Plumbing, gas and electrics aren’t part of it: those are for your plumber, an engineer on the Gas Safe Register and your electrician.
- The cabinets are made in our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood.
- On fitting day the cabinets go in, scribed and set level, ready for your plumber, electrician and Gas Safe registered engineer to do their part.
Before fitting day
- Keep pets out of the room and the hallway
- Get any new sockets or wiring done by your electrician before fitting day
- Let us know where the boiler and meters are
How to get a quote
A quote begins with a few details from you: which room it is, rough sizes and a couple of photos if you can take them. When you are ready, get in touch through our contact form. After that, we arrange a visit to measure and talk through the design, then send a quote in writing.
