The Complete Guide to Planning Your Bespoke Kitchen

Redesigning your kitchen is one of the biggest investments you’ll make in your home. It’s not just about replacing old units with new; it’s about creating a space that fits your lifestyle, works for your family, and stands the test of time. At Remo Joinery we're expert kitchen designers and installers, and we know exactly what it takes to get it right.

Here’s our step-by-step guide to planning your dream kitchen.

1. Start with how you live, not just how you want it to look

Before you even think about colours or cabinets, consider how you use your kitchen. Do you need more space for entertaining? Are you a keen cook who wants professional-level storage and prep space? Or do you simply want a practical, family-friendly layout that makes daily life easier?

Your lifestyle should shape the design, not the other way round.

2. Think about your layout

The classic “kitchen triangle” - cooker, sink, fridge - still works, but modern kitchens often need more flexibility. Islands, breakfast bars, and open-plan designs are popular, but only if the space allows. Our team will work with you to map out the flow, making sure you have a layout that’s both beautiful and functional.

3. Choose materials that last

Kitchens take a beating. Worktops, cabinets, and flooring all need to stand up to years of cooking, spills, and cleaning. We’ll guide you through the options - from solid hardwood cabinetry to durable quartz worktops - so your kitchen looks good and lasts.

4. Maximise your storage

Storage is often the number one regret in badly planned kitchens. Bespoke joinery means we can make every inch count: pull-out larders, hidden recycling bins, corner solutions, and custom-built shelving to suit your exact needs.

5. Add the finishing touches

Handles, lighting, splashbacks, even the direction your cupboard doors open - the small details make the difference between an average kitchen and a truly bespoke one.

6. Trust the installation process

A great design is nothing without expert installation. Our team handles everything from removing your old kitchen to the final fit, ensuring a seamless process and a finish that looks as good in 10 years as it does on day one.
