Hand-Painted Kitchens Across My Service Areas
Northamptonshire • Bedfordshire • Buckinghamshire • Hertfordshire • Cambridgeshire
For over three decades, I’ve specialised exclusively in hand-painted kitchens and fitted furniture. From refurbishing solid oak and pine kitchens to repainting bespoke cabinetry, the focus is always on careful preparation, traditional methods, and a finish that feels right for the home.
This page brings together the counties I personally cover. Each area below links to a detailed local guide, showing real work and explaining how hand-painted kitchen refurbishment can transform existing cabinetry without replacement.

If your kitchen is structurally sound but looking tired, hand painting can completely transform it — often at a fraction of the cost of replacement. I’m happy to offer straightforward advice on what’s possible and whether refurbishment is the right option for your kitchen.
