Kitchen planning mistakes we help homeowners avoid
A kitchen only feels right when the layout matches how you cook, store and move. Rushing the plan is the expensive mistake.
The classic errors are over-filling a small room with island units, starving the space of worktop near the hob, and choosing tall units that block light from the only window.
We start with how you use the room on a weekday evening, not a showroom catalogue page. That usually clarifies sink position, bin storage, appliance runs and whether an open hatch to the dining area helps.
Because we also fit windows and doors, we can coordinate glazing changes with a kitchen refit — useful when you want more light over the worktop or a better door out to the garden.
