When planning a kitchen renovation, finding a balance between style, functionality, and quality is essential.
At Lucas Grant Kitchens, we specialise in bespoke kitchens that cater to your unique needs, whether you’re dreaming of a classic shaker kitchen or a sleek, contemporary design.
Located in Farnham, Surrey, we have built a reputation for designing and creating handmade kitchens that combine luxury craftsmanship with practicality.
In this guide, our experts will take you through every step of the journey to create your dream kitchen – from the initial consultation to the final installation – which will soon become the heart of your home.
Step 1 – Start with Your Vision
The first step in any successful kitchen renovation is defining your vision. A bespoke kitchen reflects not only your style but also the way you live.
Are you drawn to the clean lines of contemporary kitchens, or would the timeless charm of shaker kitchens fit better with your home’s aesthetic? Do you need innovative storage solutions, a welcoming kitchen and dining space for regular entertaining, or a design that integrates seamlessly with open-plan living?
At Lucas Grant, we prioritise understanding your preferences and lifestyle. After taking the time to really get to know what you need and want, our team will help refine your ideas so that we can create a truly unique, personalised kitchen.
Step 2 – Book Your Design Consultation
Designing your bespoke kitchen begins with a thorough consultation. During this stage, we delve into everything from layout preferences to material choices. Our Surrey-based team takes great pride in working closely with clients to consider every possible detail.
During the consultation, you can expect:
- Discussions about how you use your kitchen daily and important features you require in your new kitchen.
- Exploration of our extensive options for finishes, colours, and premium materials, such as solid oak hardwood or A-grade MDF.
- Ideas for integrating high-end appliances and smart technology to enhance your cooking experience.
By choosing Lucas Grant Kitchens, you’re not just hiring a kitchen company; you’re partnering with experts who have a passion for transforming Surrey kitchens into extraordinary spaces.
Step 3 – Explore Our Collections or Go Fully Bespoke
We offer a range of customisable kitchen collections, each designed to suit different styles and tastes.
- The Searle Collection: A classic in-frame shaker kitchen that exudes timeless elegance. Perfect for those seeking a traditional style with superior craftsmanship and modern durability.
- The Firgrove Collection: A modern take on traditional shaker kitchens, featuring an overlay shaker-style door that sits directly over the cabinet carcass, without a surrounding frame. With seamless lines and understated elegance, this option is ideal for contemporary homes.
- The Barrington Collection: For a truly modern, minimalist aesthetic, the sleek slab doors and uninterrupted surfaces of this collection offer a smooth, streamlined appearance.
- The Latchwood Collection: A hybrid of classic and modern, combining in-frame cabinetry with flat slab doors for those who want the best of both worlds in their kitchen design.
If none of these collections align exactly with your vision, Lucas Grant’s fully bespoke service allows you to create a kitchen tailored to your exact needs. From bold colour combinations to one-of-a-kind materials and unique design features, the possibilities are endless.
Step 4 – Personalise Every Detail
One of the most exciting parts of designing a bespoke kitchen is customising the details. At Lucas Grant, we offer unparalleled flexibility to ensure your kitchen stands out, including a broad range of options for:
- Colours – With complete freedom in colour selection, you can match your cabinets to colours from premium paint brands like Farrow & Ball and Little Greene, or create a unique palette that complements your home.
- Materials and Finishes – Choose from premium materials, including sustainable timber such as oak, beech, or tulipwood, or durable and eco-friendly A-grade MDF. Whether you want the simplicity of a matt coating, the high shine of gloss, or a natural wood veneer, we spray or hand paint every door for a flawless finish.
- Storage – Incorporate bespoke solutions like pull-out larders, hidden compartments, and tailored cabinetry.
- Worktops – Opt for different styles of luxurious quartz, durable granite, or natural wood to add the perfect finishing touch.
By personalising these elements, you’ll create a space that feels uniquely yours while enhancing the functionality of your Surrey kitchen.
Step 5 – Finalise the Design
Once your preferences have been gathered, our team transforms your ideas into detailed designs.
Not only do we provide photo-realistic renders to help you visualise your unique kitchen, we also produce a sample door for your approval. This allows you to see the quality and finish in person, truly bringing your concept to life.
We offer complete transparency during this stage, including an accurate cost breakdown. With our bespoke kitchens starting from £25,000, we work with you to balance your budget with your dream kitchen specifications.
Step 6 – Watch Your Dream Kitchen Take Shape
At Lucas Grant Kitchens, the craftsmanship behind our handmade kitchens is something we take immense pride in. Each bespoke kitchen is built in our Surrey workshop by skilled artisans who combine traditional joinery techniques with modern precision.
Behind the scenes, you can find:
- Frames handcrafted from solid wood or premium MDF for lasting durability.
- Doors and drawers meticulously finished for an immaculate appearance.
- Implementation of sustainable practices, such as using water-based paints, to minimise environmental impact.
We invite all of our clients to visit the workshop in person to see the kitchen come to life. This unique experience connects you to the process, offering peace of mind that your luxury kitchen is in expert hands.
Step 7 – Installation and Completion
The final stage is the installation of your bespoke Lucas Grant Kitchen.
To keep everything running smoothly, our dedicated project managers oversee the entire process, ensuring everything runs smoothly. Under this guidance, our experienced installation team carefully fits every element of your kitchen.
Our attention to detail guarantees a flawless finish on all of our handmade kitchens, from cabinetry alignment to appliance integration, but a 10-year quality guarantee offers extra peace of mind that your investment is built to last.
By the end of this stage, your Surrey kitchen will not only be functional but also a stunning space where wonderful memories can be made.
