Your Kitchen.
To many people the kitchen is the centre of their home, a place where people come together to eat, drink and laugh. A kitchen is a place where family come together and while they have traditionally used for eating they have now become a popular social area to many people.
Investing in your kitchen can become a good way to boost the value of your property, due to becoming such a modern style feature of a home.
Older homes often had smaller kitchens that were segregated from the rest of the house. Inviting family members and visitors to engage and make memories in the kitchen has given it a new lease on life. Kitchens have a significant influence on who we are and the relationships in our lives.
Due to hectic schedules, it may be more difficult to organise meals together, yet eating together has numerous advantages and is worthwhile overcoming the scheduling difficulty. People tend to naturally get along better in kitchens. You are creating a chance for connection whether you cook with your family or eat with your friends.
From this social aspect of kitchens there has become a wave of people looking to stylise their kitchens and keep up with the latest trends. Kitchen trends can change over time which is where replacing your kitchen doors can prove useful, saving money over having a newly fitted kitchen.
Kitchen Styles.
Kitchen styles have changed significantly over the years, from the times of pastel colored appliances in the 70s and oak kitchen of the 90s. Kitchen styles have seen drastic changes over time, and keeping up with the latest trends can often be expensive, replacement kitchen doors are a great way to save costs!
A traditional kitchen combines formality and comfort. It exudes dignity and sophistication. It is cosy and welcoming. Historic interiors are anything from generic. Homeowners are able to experiment with design features that suit their individual preferences, and we make it easy to do so with our online store. Traditional kitchens often have features such as natural materials, gentle muted colours, and ornamental accents like raised panel cabinets and crown moulding. Traditional kitchen doors tend to have feature detailing and routered patterns, such as shaker kitchen doors or our Sherwood collection. These doors create a farmhouse setting in your home when matched with other details. Shaker kitchens are a timeless design trend that will always be in fashion.
Alternatively a modern kitchen style can consist of sleek kitchen cabinetry, smooth gloss or matte kitchen doors and an uncluttered aesthetic. Modern kitchens can be any color, some our most popular modern kitchen colors are Dusky Pink, Midnight Blue, Fir Green, Smoke Blue and White. All of these colors are available to order on our website, some from our custom paint to order palette. Natural materials are used in traditional kitchens, along with soft, muted colours and decorative accents like raised panel cabinets and crown moulding.

Whether you choose to have a fitted kitchen or only replace your kitchen doors you should know the costs involved prior to doing so. According to a study from MyBuilder the average cost of a UK kitchen installation at between £5000-£6000, however some estimates put this number between 7-14k.
On average, you might spend roughly £150 for 10 small doors or drawer fronts. The cost for 15 medium ones would be around £250. You could spend about £500 on labour to install around this number of replacement kitchen doors, or you could install them yourself using one of our helpful guides on our blog.
The cost difference between a completely new fitted kitchen compared to only replacing your kitchen doors is drastic, and can often gain nearly the same result. Don't get me wrong, a complete kitchen remodel transforms your kitchen and can increase the value of your property, however replacement kitchen doors is a cheaper alternative.
