Kitchen design FAQs - Hunt Bespoke Kitchens & Interiors

Frequently Asked Questions

What is meant by 'bespoke'?

Bespoke means that you have complete control and no limitations. Without set ranges or fixed sizes, every aspect is uniquely designed and tailor made to your needs and tastes. We take the time to understand fully your desires and the space we have to work with to ensure we make, adjust or specify every last detail.

How long have you been making bespoke furniture?

In 1998 Teresa and Nigel Hunt struggled to find the kitchen they wanted for their own property renovation. Teresa consequently put her eye for detail and talent for design to work. Together with Nigel’s carpentry skills they set about creating exactly the kitchen that they wanted. Following this success, they began taking commissions for bespoke kitchens, utility rooms and boot rooms for local clients. The business has grown steadily since then, and over the last 20 years has built an enviable reputation. Today, a skilled team of makers and fitters are employed to work on projects for every room in the house.

Do you only make kitchens?

We are well known for our handmade kitchens and utility rooms, but our skills can be applied to any bespoke furniture project you have in mind. Bathrooms, bedrooms, dressing rooms, libraries, studies and cloakrooms, we can apply our skills to any space.

Is there a design fee?

We offer a free initial consultation meeting. We believe this first step to be very important and we take the time over coffee in the showroom to understand your wishes, needs and budget, so that you get the very best design solution. Following this meeting we prepare proposed layouts and a comprehensive quotation. If you like our concepts and wish to proceed, we charge a fee of £500 for a detailed drawing which is deducted from the total cost of the final order.

How much should I budget for?

There are many variables that influence price. We always discuss your budget alongside your wish list, which means there are no surprises at the end of the process. We quote including VAT, worktops, taps, sink, door furniture, hand-painting and fitting in the price, to give you a realistic, comprehensive picture of costs. Appliances are priced separately.

We live outside Oxfordshire. What area do you cover?

We are based in North Oxfordshire and typically work within a 70 mile radius across surrounding counties – Buckinghamshire, Gloucestershire, Northamptonshire, Warwickshire, as well as in London. Distance is no deterrent. If you like our credentials we are happy to travel.

Who will manage the project?

We do that for you. From design through to installation and final finishes, we manage the entire process on your behalf.

Where is the furniture made?

All our furniture is made in our dedicated, superbly equipped workshop located on the Oxfordshire-Northamptonshire border. Clients are welcome to arrange a visit to see their furniture being created by our skilled craftsmen.

Who do you use to fit the finished furniture?

All our hand-built furniture is fitted by our own team of expert fitters. To ensure our exacting standards are maintained across every stage of the project, we do not subcontract fit and finish.
