Impeccable service, high quality products and creative design, this is the only place to buy your dream kitchen!!
Right from the initial home visit where design options were provided, bespoke to my kitchen shape and the style of my home. Through to finding the right complementary colours, choice of materials and adding excellent finishing touches. I can not thank Kitchen Studio enough especially Nigel the fitter who is incredibly skilled and went above and beyond to create our dream kitchen
We are so pleased with the result

We made an appointment to meet James. He was so friendly and welcoming and sat and went through our kitchen makeover. Working with us to keep our granite worktops. Nothing was too much bother and he showed us different designs and handles. We chose a two tone kitchen which complimented each other from the brochure. Indigo blue on the top and light grey on the bottom. Throughout the service James kept us updated on delivery and we ended getting it delivered and fitted a week earlier which was fantastic customer service. James has a vast knowledge and this is due to his 20 years experience. James organised Ian to fit the kitchen. Ian was friendly, professional and very experienced which you can tell with the fitting of our kitchen. Ian tidied up after himself and kitchen was fitted in two days. We had a bad experience with the first company we used a few years ago for our kitchen very substandard work, rude and unhelpful staff so you can imagine we were very nervous to get a new kitchen. We should not have worried as James was amazing. The quality of units and finish has transformed our kitchen. We recommend Kitchen Studio for the whole experience of a new kitchen. We have enclosed before and after photos. Thank you James and Ian.

We felt very welcome in this new to Sunderland business. James explained he had been in the business for over 20 years but had recently relocated to Sunderland. We were his first customers through the door and were very impressed with the showroom.
We worked together on a design for the kitchen and very soon put our order in. In a matter of weeks my old kitchen was removed and Nigel the fitter did an excellent job. He was very knowledgeable about all aspects of the fitting and in less than 2 weeks I had my dream kitchen.
A shout out to Ricky Powney who tiled the walls in a very professional manner too.
Highly recommended

5 Stars – Outstanding Service and Results!
I can’t recommend the kitchen studio in Sunderland highly enough! From start to finish, the team was incredibly efficient, professional, and attentive to every detail. They made what could have been a stressful renovation process feel completely seamless.
Communication was clear and timely throughout, and the quality of the craftsmanship is exceptional. Every element of the design was executed perfectly, and the final result has completely transformed my space.
It’s rare to find a company that combines such high standards with genuine customer care – a truly amazing job from a team that clearly takes pride in what they do. Thank you!

Professional Kitchen Installation for Durham Homes
Even high-quality kitchen products depend on the standard of their installation. Cabinets must sit level and secure, worktops must meet cleanly, doors and drawers need consistent alignment, and every visible panel must finish neatly against the room.
Kitchen Studio provides a coordinated kitchen fitting service for homeowners across Durham. Our team checks the installation requirements before work begins, follows the approved specification and completes each agreed stage in the correct order.
Whether your kitchen includes a compact cabinet run, a full set of wall and base units, tall appliance housings or an island, we approach the fitting with the same focus on accuracy and finish.
Kitchen Fitting Services Available
Your quotation will be based on the products, room and fitting work required. Kitchen Studio can include the following installation services where agreed:
Kitchen Cabinet Installation
Base units, wall cabinets and tall housings are positioned, levelled and secured before the visible finishing components are added. Accurate cabinet installation creates the foundation for aligned doors, stable worktops and correctly fitted appliances.
Kitchen Door and Drawer Fitting
Doors, drawer fronts, hinges and runners are fitted and adjusted for smooth use and consistent spacing. Handles are positioned carefully to maintain a balanced appearance across the kitchen.
Panel, Plinth and Trim Fitting
End panels, fillers, plinths, cornices, pelmets and trims complete the transition between the cabinets and the room. Careful measuring and scribing help produce a neat finish around walls, floors and adjoining surfaces.
Kitchen Worktop Fitting
Suitable worktops are measured and fitted according to the agreed specification. Joints, edges, overhangs and openings are checked carefully, while specialist surfaces can be coordinated where separate templating and fabrication are required.
Integrated Appliance Fitting
Integrated ovens, dishwashers, fridge freezers, hobs and extractors can be positioned within the appropriate cabinets and housings. The fitting scope will identify any specialist electrical, plumbing or gas connections required.
Sink, Tap and Hob Openings
Specified openings can be prepared in compatible worktops using the approved product dimensions. The fitting requirements and responsibility for final connections will be agreed before work starts.
Existing Kitchen Removal
If removal is included in your quotation, the existing units and worktops can be taken out before the new kitchen is installed. Waste handling, appliance disconnection and any preparation revealed after removal will be defined within the agreed scope.
Careful Fitting Makes the Difference
A professionally fitted kitchen should feel considered from every angle. Cabinet runs should appear straight, adjoining doors should share even gaps, drawers should move smoothly and finishing panels should look intentional rather than added as an afterthought.
Our fitters pay attention to:
Level and secure cabinet installation
Consistent door and drawer alignment
Neat worktop positioning and joints
Accurate panel and filler measurements
Clean plinth, cornice and trim finishing
Suitable appliance spacing and access
Controlled cut-outs for specified fixtures
Final adjustments before handover
These details protect the appearance and everyday usability of your kitchen. They also reduce the risk of small fitting errors affecting several components later.
A Clear Kitchen Fitting Process
1. Tell Us About Your Kitchen
Send us your Durham postcode, approved kitchen information, product details, appliance specifications and preferred fitting period. Photographs and plans help us understand the installation before arranging the next step.
2. Confirm the Installation Scope
We establish which cabinets, worktops, appliances and finishing components require fitting. We also identify access, removal, preparation or specialist-trade requirements that may affect the quotation.
3. Receive Your Fitting Quote
Your quotation sets out the agreed installation work, relevant assumptions and exclusions. This gives you a clear basis for comparing the service and approving the work.
4. Prepare for Installation
Products, appliance information, room readiness and access arrangements are checked before the fitting date. Any separately agreed preparation should be completed before the main installation begins.
5. Fit Your New Kitchen
The fitting team installs the agreed cabinets and components in sequence, maintaining communication as the work progresses.
6. Final Checks and Handover
Doors and drawers are adjusted, visible finishing details are reviewed and any agreed snagging points are recorded before handover.
Why Choose Kitchen Studio?
Kitchen Studio brings more than two decades of kitchen-industry experience to the practical decisions that shape a successful installation.
Installation-Focused Workmanship
Our fitting service concentrates on the accuracy, alignment and finishing details that determine how the completed kitchen looks and functions.
One Clear Scope of Work
We define the agreed fitting responsibilities before installation begins, helping you understand what is included and what requires separate arrangements.
Coordinated Installation Stages
Cabinets, worktops, appliances and visible finishing components are approached in a logical sequence to help the installation progress smoothly.
Local Service for Durham
Our Sunderland-based team provides kitchen fitting services for homeowners in Durham and the surrounding served area.
Customer-Focused Communication
We keep you informed before and during the fitting process so questions, product details and agreed decisions remain clear.
Kitchen Fitting Built Around Your Specification
Kitchen Studio fits the kitchen that has already been selected and approved. We work from the supplied specification, cabinet information and appliance details so the installation reflects the agreed plan.
Before accepting the work, we assess whether the products and room appear ready for fitting. If the installation requires additional preparation or specialist support, this can be identified before the start date and addressed within the agreed project arrangements.
This page is specifically for kitchen fitting. If your project still requires a new layout or product specification, our separate kitchen design service is the appropriate starting point. Projects involving structural alterations or a wider room transformation should be discussed through our kitchen renovation service.
Fitting Cabinets, Worktops and Appliances with Care
Kitchen components depend on one another. A poorly positioned cabinet can affect a worktop joint, an appliance opening or the alignment of several doors. Our fitters work systematically so each completed stage supports the next.
Cabinets are checked before visible panels and fronts are completed. Worktop requirements are confirmed against the installed run. Appliance housings are reviewed against the product information, and doors and drawers receive final adjustments once the surrounding components are in place.
The result is a kitchen installation that feels coherent, secure and ready for everyday use.
Kitchen Fitting Quotes in Durham
The cost of kitchen fitting depends on the actual installation rather than one standard rate. The number and type of units, worktop requirements, appliance integration, removal needs, room condition and finishing details all affect the quotation.
To receive a relevant quote, provide:
Your Durham postcode
Kitchen plans or cabinet schedule
Number and type of units
Worktop material
Appliance list and model information
Photographs of the existing room
Removal requirements
Preferred fitting period
Any known access or preparation issues
The more complete the information, the easier it is to define an accurate scope. Where a site review is required, Kitchen Studio will advise you before finalising the quotation.

Kitchen Fitting for Different Property Types
Durham kitchens are installed in rooms with different dimensions, surfaces and access conditions. Some properties have straight, recently prepared walls, while others include uneven plaster, irregular corners or floors that require careful adjustment during fitting.
Kitchen Studio reviews the actual installation conditions rather than assuming every room is identical. Appropriate fillers, panels and finishing details can then be fitted around the confirmed room and product specification.
This local, installation-led approach helps us provide a fitting service that responds to the property without broadening the work into an unrelated renovation project.
