What actually matters in a kitchen
Every Runcorn 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.
The short list for a Runcorn kitchen
Across Runcorn 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.
Small decisions that make the kitchen work
- 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.

Common Questions
Frequently asked
Do you fit kitchen blinds in Runcorn?
Yes — WA7 are on our regular survey run. 15 min from Stockton Heath, and kitchens are one of the most-quoted rooms across Runcorn.
What does a Runcorn kitchen blind project usually cost?
£95–£220 per kitchen window. Whole-room Runcorn projects sit inside the £1,600 – £3,800 band across the house. Every figure fixed and 90-day valid.
Which blinds suit a Old Town terrace kitchen?
Waterproof roller is the usual default. Chain-drop from the top corner keeps the operator away from a full sink.
Will the shutter clog with cooking grease?
ABS louvres wipe clean with a soapy microfibre. Painted hardwood is fine outside the direct hob splash zone — the same paint spec used on kitchen cabinetry. In Runcorn, that's the answer for the Old Town terraces and 1970s estate semi 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 Runcorn, that's the answer for the Old Town terraces and 1970s estate semi we survey most weeks.
