I really enjoyed working with Beams on my kitchen renovation. They understood the challenges of designing for a small kitchen and came up with smart solutions that worked really well.

A great experience on our new kitchen. Our designer totally understood what we wanted, they were transparent on price and timings, and everything came in on budget.

Bespoke kitchen renovation and refurbishment in Hackney

Every Beams kitchen is a bespoke fitted kitchen, shaped around how you live, what you love and what your home needs.

Make it work for you: every range is designed around how you actually use the kitchen, from storage and layout to workflow and light.

Express your style: ten original ranges, from shaker and in-frame to handleless and contemporary.

Built to last: solid-wood cabinetry, durable fittings and hand-sprayed finishes as standard, with no vinyl wraps and no shortcuts.

How a Beams kitchen is made

A vetted joinery partner crafts and fits your kitchen, your builder coordinates the site work, and design support is available throughout. Every kitchen is made to order by hand, with dovetail joints and soft-close runners, under fixed-price contracts on both sides and overlapping warranties on workmanship, installation and hardware.

Ten unique ranges, quality inside and out

From in-frame shaker to architectural birch plywood, painted heritage colours to brushed-metal mid-century, every range is designed in-house for a specific style direction. Solid-wood cabinetry, dovetail joints, soft-close runners and smart storage are built to the same standard whether you can see them or not.

What a kitchen renovation costs in Hackney

There is no flat rate. What a Hackney kitchen costs varies with the size of the room, the range you choose, whether you are extending or reconfiguring, and the finish, and period homes here can carry extra structural cost. Rather than a headline price, we give you a free estimate range upfront, and your builder confirms a fixed price once the design is agreed, so you know the full cost before work begins.

To give you a real starting point, here is the typical estimate range for kitchen projects across Hackney, based on Beams estimates for local homeowners.

Hackney kitchen project	Typical estimate
Lower end	Around £22,000
Most projects	Around £28,500
Larger or extended kitchens	Around £43,000 and up

These are estimate ranges, not fixed quotes. A straightforward refit or reconfiguration tends to sit at the lower end. A larger kitchen, a higher-end range and finish, or a side-return extension pushes it higher. Your builder gives you a fixed price before any work begins. For the full UK cost picture, see our guide to how much a kitchen renovation costs.

Three steps to your new kitchen

1. Get your free estimate — tell us about your kitchen, space, style and budget.

2. Book a design call — configure your kitchen in detail; the first session is free.

3. Crafted, fitted, finished — made to order and fitted on site under a fixed-price contract, your builder coordinating the build.

Made to order, built greener

Every Beams kitchen is fabricated and assembled using responsibly sourced materials, FSC- and PEFC-approved timber, water-based paints and low-VOC finishes. Shorter supply chains, a lower carbon footprint, and a kitchen built closer to home than nearly all.

See it before you commit

Our showroom on Hanbury Street is the fastest way to feel confident about your choices. Handle the materials, open the drawers and see the ranges in person, then book a free 45-minute design session by appointment.

Why a new kitchen is worth it in Hackney

The kitchen is the room you use most and the one that sells a home. A bespoke fitted kitchen that opens up the ground floor adds day-to-day comfort and, done well, real value, which is why a side-return or knock-through is such a popular Hackney project.

Renovating your kitchen in Hackney

Hackney runs from large Victorian terraces and warehouse and factory conversions to significant post-war council housing and new-build infill, around Regent's Canal, Victoria Park and the Broadway and Columbia Road markets.

With the average local home selling for around £613,000 over the past year, it is worth getting right. One thing to plan for early is the local planning picture. Hackney has around 35 conservation areas, including De Beauvoir, London Fields, Clapton, Beck Road, Broadway Market and Brownswood, with Article 4 directions in several, so single-storey rear extensions are permitted development only outside those.

Our kitchen fitters build bespoke kitchens around all of it, from a straightforward kitchen refurbishment to a full knock-through. We also help homeowners across East London, including neighbouring Dalston, London Fields and Stoke Newington.
