‌Design, Manufacture, Project Management & Installation

We offer a free, no-obligation design service. Based on your concept, we create a comprehensive plan and costing, detailing all the components of your design. Together, we can then build your dream furniture or kitchen.

The installation of a new hand-made kitchen often requires much more than fitting new cabinetry, which is why we have the knowledge and experience to offer plumbing, flooring, painting and plastering. Over the decades we have built lasting relationships with skilled and trustworthy tradesmen, craftsmen and suppliers in Essex and nationwide.

Our attention to detail is what sets us apart from other companies. For this reason, we only employ teams who work to the same high standards as ourselves. We deliver a service we are proud of, which befits our reputation as one of the leading bespoke kitchen makers in Colchester.

Renovation & Project Management

Our renovation and project management services allow you to realise your perfect kitchen, and to minimise disruption we can install a temporary kitchen in another part of your house.

Intuitive Design Features

Working with you we design a kitchen to suit your family. From bi-fold doors in awkward spaces to hidden cinema screens that appear silently; we ensure aesthetics and functionality combine, creating a practical living space you'll love.

Luxury Appliance Dealer

Our reputation sees us as a trusted main dealer in Essex for luxury brands. Our showroom stocks Armac Martin hand-forged ironmongery, Perrin & Rowe taps and Quooker boiling taps. We supply high-tech appliances from Gaggenau, Wolf and Lacanche.

Worktop Surfaces

We source high grade natural worktop surfaces worldwide; marble, wood, granite, quartz and innovative and mouldable Corian. Individual marble slabs can be selected from sites across the UK and our Essex showroom stocks samples that can be ordered to take home.

Attention to Detail

Consistent attention to detail is the hallmark of our reputation. The quality of our work is often in the details that are hidden away, such as soft closing drawers and dovetail joints. Most however, are visible and on-show where you would like them to be.

Cabinetry & Carpentry

Simon passes on knowledge, learned from his father, to newer team members, who relish the opportunity to showcase their skills. From windows to doors, stairs to studies, we apply the same level of attention and skill to every kitchen and furniture project.

A Complete Team

Over the years we have selected trusted contractors able to complete all aspects of your kitchen and furniture projects. Blind and curtain makers, upholsterers, tilers and floorers; we only use those that uphold our ethos of quality and care.

Family Run Business

Simon's was established in Colchester, Essex over 20 years ago and the family are involved in every aspect of the business. We have two generations working within our company and have great hopes for the third!

‌Handmade & Hand-painted

We always paint your bespoke furniture and kitchens onsite, ensuring that the finishing touch to your build is of the highest standard. We source a wide range of palettes from premium companies who are selected for their durability and exceptional finish, including the oldest British paint company Mylands, Little Greene, Fired Earth and Farrow and Ball.

We stock a large selection of take-away colour charts in our Colchester Showroom where you can also view the quality of our hand painted kitchen furniture firsthand.

Absolutely fantastic company to deal with. We have used Simon for a kitchen, study and walk-in wardrobe. Their work is outstanding and the customer service is the best I've ever experienced. No job is too big for these guys. Highly recommended.

Genna B

We are very happy with our new kitchen, particularly with the design and finish of the units and fittings.
Thank you for your guidance through the process and many thanks to Matt, who has been friendly and helpful throughout.

Pete & Alison

Simon and his team fitted our bespoke kitchen. We were extremely pleased with the finished result, high quality, timeless design, practical layout... after 3 years everything is still perfectly aligned and functioning as new. Highly recommended!
