Kitchen and Bathroom Fitters in Highworth

Highworth sits on a hilltop to the north-east of Swindon, with views across to the Cotswolds and a historic centre full of Georgian and older buildings. Around it are farming villages where many old barns have been converted into homes. That mix gives us some of our most interesting design work.

Highworth’s homes

Period homes in the centre. The streets around the Market Place and the High Street include 17th, 18th and 19th-century houses, many of them listed or within the conservation area. Kitchens here often sit in narrow rear wings with sloping floors and thick walls. We favour in-frame and painted Shaker styles, solid wood or honed stone worktops, and careful planning around original features.

Post-war and modern estates at Westrop, Eastrop and around Swindon Road are more straightforward to work on, with good-sized kitchens that suit open-plan layouts and islands. These homes are also strong candidates for walk-in showers and wet rooms in place of a dated shower-over-bath.

Barn conversions and farmhouses in villages like Sevenhampton and Hannington are where our kitchen design service really shows its value. Large open spaces, exposed trusses and walls that are nowhere near square need a design that works with the building. A handleless kitchen in a strong colour can look superb against old timber and stone.

A Highworth project

In a converted barn just outside the town, the owners wanted a modern kitchen that didn’t compete with the exposed roof trusses. We designed a kitchen in a deep blue-green with pale worktops, kept tall units to a single wall, laid a herringbone floor and used low-level lighting to show off the timberwork. Every panel was scribed to the uneven stone walls, and the quartz worktops were templated on site to follow them exactly.

Working in the conservation area

If your home is listed or in the conservation area, some changes, such as moving walls, altering windows or venting an extractor through a front wall, may need permission. We’ll flag anything like that at the design visit, so there are no surprises later.
