The kitchen spec, ordered by what matters
Every Handforth kitchen project we quote hinges on the same set of questions:
- Grease and steam near the hob
- Clearance around a monobloc tap
- Operation when the sink is full
- Reveal depth on butler-window openings
Nothing fabric within 300mm of a gas hob. Faux-wood or PVC only over food-prep zones.
Our default kitchen specification
Across Handforth kitchens we mostly fit:
- Waterproof roller
- Faux-wood venetian
- Perfect-fit cellular (bifold-adjacent kitchens)
Chain-drop from the top corner keeps the operator away from a full sink.
Faux-wood venetian in a mid-tone breaks up an all-white kitchen without dominating it.
Kitchen design notes
- Chain-drop from the top corner keeps the operator away from a full sink.
- Faux-wood venetian in a mid-tone breaks up an all-white kitchen without dominating it.
- Roller blinds behind a kitchen island window should be motorised — you can't reach the chain across a peninsula.

Property-fit proof
A specification shaped by 1930s semi openings
We start with the opening, not a stock package. In Handforth, that means accounting for 1930s semi, 1980s estate detached, modern new build and selecting frames, panel widths and materials around those constraints.

Common Questions
Frequently asked
Do you fit kitchen blinds in Handforth?
Yes — SK9 3 are on our regular survey run. 28 min from Stockton Heath, and kitchens are one of the most-quoted rooms across Handforth.
What does a Handforth kitchen blind project usually cost?
£95–£220 per kitchen window. Whole-room Handforth projects sit inside the £2,000 – £5,500 band across the house. Every figure fixed and 90-day valid.
Which blinds suit a 1930s semi kitchen?
Waterproof roller is the usual default. Chain-drop from the top corner keeps the operator away from a full sink.
Can I fit shutters behind a tall monobloc tap?
Yes — reveal-fit puts the shutter inside the recess, behind the tap. We measure the tap swing on survey day. In Handforth, that's the answer for the 1930s semis and 1980s estate detached we survey most weeks.
What about the window over the sink?
Café-style keeps sink splash off, or a full-height that opens both sides for reaching through to clean. In Handforth, that's the answer for the 1930s semis and 1980s estate detached we survey most weeks.
