From Floor to Finish: A Kitchen Transformed with Heart
At Cheshire Kitchen Fitters, every kitchen tells a story—but this one was different. When Rebecca Wilkinson contacted us, she wasn’t just looking for a new kitchen. She was looking to rebuild trust after a difficult experience with a national retailer had left her disappointed and disheartened.
Fortunately, Rebecca had a recommendation she could rely on: her sister. And with our reputation as a Which? Trusted Trader, she felt confident enough to take the next step in her new home, see the full case study here.

🔍 The Challenge: A Kitchen Needing More Than a Makeover
Rebecca’s existing kitchen was poorly laid out, cluttered, and disconnected from the rest of her home. The badly installed slate tiled floor added to the sense of discomfort and coldness. Worse still, her previous renovation had left her frustrated and wary of starting over.
She envisioned a space that felt elegant, personal, and practical—a kitchen that reflected her style and restored her faith in home renovations.
✨ The Design: Practical Elegance, Beautifully Executed
Rebecca selected our Caserta range in a timeless Chalkstone finish. We paired this with:
Quartz worktops with a custom splashback and window sill
Ceramic butler sink and brushed bronze tap
Durable LVT flooring
Bespoke open-shelf unit crafted onsite
Brushed bronze socket fittings to tie the look together
Modern integrated appliances
This wasn’t just a refit—it was a transformation from the floor up.
👷 The Build Process: From Tear-Out to Tailored Finish

The old kitchen and slate flooring were removed. The subfloor was screeded, and new LVT flooring was laid for warmth and durability.Electrical Work
