Our Services
A new-looking kitchen without the price of a new kitchen — the doors and trims painted properly, and new handles throughout.
Most kitchens that look dated are not worn out. The carcasses, worktops and appliances are usually fine; it is the colour of the doors, the dark trims and the old handles that age the room. Painting them costs a fraction of replacing the kitchen and takes days rather than weeks.
Preparation is what makes it last: doors and frames are cleaned, keyed and primed before the topcoats go on, so the finish stands up to daily use rather than chipping within months. New handles finish the job off.
We did exactly this for a customer in Horsham in October 2026 — cream doors with dark timber trims painted white, every handle changed, and new flooring laid first. Same cabinets, same worktops, different kitchen. Free quotes, as always.

Not if it is prepared properly. The doors and frames are cleaned, keyed and primed before the topcoats, which is what makes the finish stand up to daily use.
Yes — new handles are usually part of the job, and we can lay new flooring at the same time, as we did on the Horsham kitchen.
