DIY Kitchens Planner

We recently went for a full kitchen design, and the experience was fantastic. The designer listened to our needs and created a layout that maximised space and functionality. The final design looks modern, practical, and perfectly suited to our home.

Our old kitchen was poorly designed, but the new design completely transformed the space. The team suggested better storage solutions and a more open layout. It now feels much bigger and more organised.

I couldn’t recommend Samantha more highly. We spent months trawling the showrooms before she was recommended to me by a colleague. Communication was quick and simple, and the design she produced was just what we were hoping for. My only suggestion would be to promote your own products further - we ordered Invictus flooring, a Quooker and quartz worktops through them at hugely discounted prices. Fantastic value for money, thank you for making our kitchen dreams real.

I think the kitchen design is lovely I’m just not convinced this is worth the money. I had a much more collaborative process when I went to some of the bigger and leading kitchen manufacturers. With this company, you fill out the limited brief (pictured) along with a few inspiration pics and they bring your design to life. Whilst the design is lovely and very close to what I wanted, it’s not quite there. There isn’t a collaborative process and you are not asked questions such as where you want your fridge, the colour of your island or where you want certain appliances positioned; they pretty much guess this for you and if you’re easily pleased then you’ll be fine but if you’re a little more particular then you might find yourself having to pay a few amendment fees to get the design you really want. Either be very detailed and specific in the brief or expect to pay extra otherwise you’re better off using a leading manufacturer and purchasing the design from them. You also have to pay the entire fee (£199) upfront - there isn’t an option to pay a deposit then final balance upon completion which also made me a little wary. It’s a shame as I wanted to love the company and I think what they do is great but I also think the process is slightly flawed with you not being able to specify the colours you want the cupboards or the size of the island without it being subject to a redesign fee. If I knew to put it all in the brief, I would have. I just expected them to come back to me and confirm things before completing the design. Do I like my design? Yes. Would I use them again or recommend them to friends and family? No.

Samantha's design services were an absolute god-send for our project. She combined all our ideas and a very vague brief into an absolutely stunning kitchen design which ticked all our boxes and satisfied needs we didn't know we had! Sam was very easy and professional to deal with and the visuals she presented really helped us to finalise our kitchen dream. Will add kitchen photos when its built!
