Kitchens are one of the most important rooms in the home, both socially and financially.

Some people may just want to spruce up their existing kitchens with new worktops, doors and possibly appliances which is a more economical option as Blenford. are happy to help with your kitchen refurbishment at any level. If you’re starting from scratch it is important to start thinking about the design of your kitchen from the very early stages of a build. If you are utilising existing space like a garage and converting into a kitchen or having a purpose built extension for the kitchen of your dreams, it is important to start considering your kitchen design before the ‘first fix’ electrics and
plumbing are started.

Although retailers will offer a fitting service, at Blenford. we recommend you consider using experienced trades-persons; joiners, plumbers, plasterers and electricians rather than risk having ‘fitters’ to fit the kitchen given that how expensive your kitchen might be costing, especially if you’ve had it designed for you.

Bathrooms are vitally important but are often overlooked in terms of design and consideration. But Blenford’s bathroom fitters can fit and plumb al sizes and designs of bathrooms from the traditional pedestal basins and close-coupled WCs to more modern space-saving wall-hung WC’s and basins that may require frames and stud walling.
The average UK bathroom size is 2m x 3m and most home owners will fit a bath along the wall and a furniture unit with recessed basin and WC on the adjacent wall to the bath. But there are alternatives to consider, such as creating a wet room if you prefer a shower or using corner basins and WC’s in very small cloak rooms. If you know the type of bathroom you require we can source the ceramics and brassware for you or recommend retailers or designers to help you.
Wall-hung WC’s, basins and furniture not only give an illusion of space but also make cleaning the bathroom easier. This is very popular option in Europe but has been slower to catch on here because of the age of UK houses and concerns about fitting and maintenance. You don’t have to worry about such things with Blenford who are experienced in fitting al types of bathroom suites.
As the population ages accessibility is becoming a key factor in bathroom designs making sure the older generation or those less able will be able to safely and comfortably use the bathroom for many years to come. The addition of hand rails, higher WC’s and the right taps and brassware can make a huge difference to accessibility. Many additional bathrooms are added as part of an extension or conversion and Blenford have the expertise and trades to complete the entire project for you.
