Kitchen layouts across Abingdon vary more than most towns this size, because the building stock spans several centuries in a small area. The Georgian and Victorian houses around East St Helen Street and Ock Street often have narrow, galley-shaped kitchens tucked into a rear extension, with door heads, chimney breasts and old service pipework that a run of standard units has to be scribed and cut around rather than simply lined up against a straight wall.
Further out, in Peachcroft, Northcourt and Dunmore, kitchens are generally squarer and were built with more forgiving proportions, though ceiling heights are lower and stud walls thinner, which matters when wall units need secure fixing rather than relying on a lucky stud position. The newest developments on the edges of Abingdon tend to have open-plan kitchen-diners, often with an island, where getting the run square against a long flat wall and levelling a run of floor units across a wider span becomes the main technical challenge.
We fit kitchens you have already bought rather than supplying units ourselves, working from manufacturer plans or your own layout to scribe end panels, level carcasses on a floor that is rarely perfectly flat, and fit worktops with accurate joints. Electrical work such as new circuits or socket positions is carried out by a qualified electrician we work alongside, coordinated so first fix happens before the units go in and the kitchen isn't waiting on a trade turning up out of sequence.
