Kitchens, Kitchens - Design/Installation
Simple Kitchens provides a complete service from the first friendly chat about your project to the last brush-stroke on your beautiful new kitchen.
A kitchen is a curious mix of practical versus aesthetic considerations. After all, the look of the most beautiful kitchen will soon pall if there is nowhere to store the pans, and the best laid out kitchen can end up looking cold and clinical.
At Simple Kitchens, we aim to create well-designed kitchens that have a perfect balance of form and function.
We combine a wide variety of materials and finishes; solid maple, walnut and cherry, natural granite, sandblasted glass, polished steel, hand painted finishes, wood veneers, chrome, and solid oak, to name but a few. We add a host of clever storage solutions to create a beautiful functional timeless space for you and your family to enjoy for years to come.

Once the work started on my new kitchen I was pleased with my choice of Simple Kitchens. I am not local to their area, so they had to travel a bit further to get to me, they were always punctual, sometimes arrived earlier and waited outside until I was ready for them, they made sure I had time to make decisions, from suggestions that were proposed to me and I was happy. They worked well as a team and I must mention Jason the fitter who along with Debs went that extra mile to assist me.
The price I paid was well worth it for peace of mind. I have videos of the progress of the new kitchen and have shown work colleagues and others, their initial response was WOW. (Reviewed August 2023)
'I have no hesitation in highly recommending Simple Kitchens. Thomas, Christina and their team provided a bespoke service and their craftsmanship and attention to detail were first class. I couldn't be more delighted. In fact, if further proof of my esteem were needed, my first kitchen was made by Thomas himself 22 years ago as he was starting out in his business. It was an easy decision to use Simple Kitchens again for my second!' (Reviewed June 2023)
This is a very professional firm from start to finish. I could not have chosen better.
I had a fair idea of what I wanted, but with help from Thomas and Christina, we formed the perfect plan. There was plenty of time to make changes before the final order for units was made. No hasty decisions.
My old kitchen was out in one day, and then the kitchen was prepared. Everyone, the electrician, the plumber, the plasterer, the fitter and the painter were efficient and very pleasant.
If there was anything I needed to know, to check, I was able to contact Thomas or Christine with a quick phone call. They always informed me who was coming each day and what time they would arrive.
There was an offer of a small oven hob to borrow during this time.
I am beyond thrilled with the result. I cannot speak (Reviewed May 2023)
Everyone involved with our kitchen was absolutely brilliant, we canât find anything to complain about. From the time we spent in the showroom choosing and modifying our design, to the initial plans and then to the actual work itself we were so impressed. Everything was in accordance with the programme provided and during the work some further improvements were made which contributed to the final look of the kitchen. Communications throughout the work were first class.
We would not hesitate to recommend Simple Kitchens to anyone else looking to update their kitchen.
Thank you so much. (Reviewed April 2023)

A professional, reassuring approach from initial survey to completion. (Reviewed June 2022)
We have recently had a new kitchen fitted by Simple Kitchens. Both Thomas and Christina have been great to work with, committed to delivering a well designed and built kitchen. From first meeting through to the finished kitchen, they have helped us every step of the way and always been available to answer any questions we had. The fitting of our kitchen was first class and communication with our builder was done where necessary, leaving us feeling confident that everything was in hand.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Simple Kitchens and would use them again if we ever need a new kitchen. (Reviewed April 2022)
Excellent process from start to finish! Very high standard of workmanship and nothing too much trouble. (Reviewed May 2021)
We found Christina and Thomas extremely knowledgeable and approachable. They were willing to listen to our ideas and altered the original design a few times to fit in with our requirements and budget. They are reliable and kept us informed every step of the way. We are extremely pleased with our kitchen and the quality of the workmanship. We would not hesitate to recommend Simple Kitchens (Reviewed August 2020)
Superb job in designing and constructing our new kitchen. We were very impressed by Thomas's professionalism as a skilled project manager from our initial contact with him, and throughout the whole process. Very reliable with great after care service too. We would highly recommend the company. (Reviewed August 2019)
Great professional and friendly service from both Thomas and Christina.
They listened to what I wanted and created a kitchen that I am over the moon with.
Cannot rate Simple Kitchens highly enough. (Reviewed August 2019)
We chose Simple Kitchens after having designs and quotes from 3 other companies & we could not be more delighted with our decision. We have quite a small compact kitchen which we wanted completely refurbished. The kitchen we wished for was to have a lot within it and the design & quotation we received achieved all that we desired. In actual fact Simple Kitchens came up with suggestions that enhanced what we ended up with. The service we received during the installation stage was great. We used all the workmen (fitter, electrician, plumber and plasterer) that Simple Kitchens recommended and we were happy with all their work. We must say that Thomas is a perfectionist when it comes to the installation which shows in the final finish. (Reviewed August 2019)
Simple Kitchens designed and installed a kitchen to replace our previous kitchen as part of some building alterations. We wanted a bespoke kitchen to make the most of a small awkwardly shaped space and Simple Kitchens proved to be an excellent choice. We were able to visit their newly opened showroom which allowed us to see their work and helped with choosing the detail of the finish.
Thomas and Christina worked with us designing a kitchen meeting our requirements for more worktop space, adequate storage and integrated appliances. Their fitters & painter worked carefully to a high standard and, together with Thomas and Christina were happy to accommodate late changes to our requirements
We are very pleased with our kitchen, it meets all our requirements and we're happy to recommend them. (Reviewed January 2019)
We found Simple Kitchens, attracted at first by all the trade marks of distinction (Best of Houzz, Which Trusted Trader, Trading Standards Approved). We liked the idea of working with a small family company and instantly liked Thomas on his first visit. He listened to all our likes and requirements and come back within 2 weeks with a beautifully designs kitchen by Christina, that hardly required any changes, as it perfectly represented what we had envisaged. This was accompanied by a comprehensive Quote. After months of exploring all manor of kitchen companies, these elements persuaded us to push our budget up to engage Simple Kitchens and it proved to be worth every penny. From start to finish the process ran smoothly and professionally. All involved were true craftsmen and very personable. They kept the disruption to a minimum and everything happened to schedule. We cannot fault their customer service and attention to detail and would recommend them without hesitation. (Reviewed January 2018)
We used Simple Kitchens to replace an existing kitchen and we would highly recommend them. The whole process of dealing with Simple Kitchens from initial contact, through design, quotation, supply, installation and commissioning was clearly laid out and free from any anxiety. They were always pleasant to deal with, very knowledgeable and competent at their trade.
As part of choosing a kitchen supply company we considered a large range of both independent and high street chains. We finally chose Simple Kitchens because of the quality of their cabinets, but equally important to us was the perceived clarity of the process and the customer service offered by their company.
We particularly liked being able to have a single person (Thomas) responsible for our project right from initial design, through to supply, installation and post-installation.
We found Simple Kitchens were very approachable during the design process, being prepared to listen and understand our requirements, make helpful and innovative suggestions, and to go through multiple iterations until an ideal design was achieved - particularly thanks to Christina. Simple Kitchens also worked with us in choosing the kitchen appliances and ensuring that they fitted within the design.
Although our kitchen refurbishment was part of a bigger renovation project, we decided the complexity of the kitchen would be best handled separately. Whereas in the case of a standalone kitchen refit Simple Kitchens would usually use their own tradesmen, they were happy to work with our builder's contractors, such as electricians and plumbers. Simple Kitchens ensured the various tradesmen were fully briefed and oversaw the installation work to ensure it fitted perfectly within the kitchen design.
Whenever a major delivery occurred, such as cabinets or appliances, Simple Kitchens were on hand to receive and check the goods, thus relieving us of the need to wait in.
Simple Kitchens' fitter was highly competent and installed the kitchen components in a professional and timely manner, despite needing to work around other tradesmen working on other areas. He was very pleasant to have in the house and always left the place neat and tidy.
Although there were few snags, for the small number that occurred, Simple Kitchens were very responsive in dealing with them. Throughout the process we always had full confidence that whatever concerns we might have, or issues that might arise, we would always be listened to, action would be taken and a satisfactory solution found. (Reviewed September 2017)
All phases of our kitchen installation from design, project plan, installation and overall supervision could not be faulted. All aspects of the work carried out by Simple Kitchens team of specialist tradesmen was of a very high standard displaying technical competence and pride in their work. (Reviewed July 2016)
Excellent process from start to finish. We got great advice in the design stage and they made sure we knew what we were buying. Great attention to the detail when fitting the kitchen to ensure it was perfect. Popping in when asked was never too much trouble. Very pleased with the result. (Reviewed July 2016)
This is one of the best companies we have ever worked with in our home. They are professional, well organised, friendly, polite, helpful and work to the highest standards. We could not recommend them more highly.
Disruption was kept to a minimum and the timetable was realistic. We were kept informed on progress on a daily basis. The end result was a beautiful and functional kitchen which we love. (Reviewed February 2016)
