FAQs
The things people ask us.
If what you want to know is not here, ring us on 01670 789 599 and ask. We would rather tell you than have you guess.
Coming to see us
Where is the showroom?
We are at B1 Whitehouse Farm Centre, Stannington, Morpeth, Northumberland, NE61 6AW.
Two kitchens and two bathrooms are standing in it, with the brassware, the tile samples and the worktops alongside them. You can open a drawer and put a hand on a worktop, which is a better way to choose than a screen.
Do I need an appointment?
Not to look round. You are welcome to come and see the showroom without booking.
If you would like to sit down with a designer and talk about your own room, ring us on 01670 789 599 or send us a message and we will find a time.
Which areas do you cover?
Northumberland and the North East. We have been making kitchens, bathrooms and living spaces in Morpeth for more than twenty years.
Can you come to me instead?
Yes. Come and see us in the showroom, or ask us to come to you — whichever is easier.
Can I see a finished room that is not in the showroom?
Often, yes. Where a client is happy to have visitors we will arrange for you to stand in a finished room rather than look at a photograph of one.
How we work
Is the furniture made to fit my room?
Yes. Everything is built to the size of your room rather than cut down from a standard unit, and we measure every room ourselves rather than work from somebody else's plan.
Old houses are rarely true, and fitted furniture is the thing that shows it up. Most of the work is the part nobody photographs: where the bins go, which way a door swings in a room that is not square, how the tiling meets an awkward corner.
Who fits it?
The people who make it are the people who fit it. The joiners who build your room are the ones who come and install it.
Do you design before you quote?
Always. Every room is measured and set out on paper before we quote a price — a kitchen is a planning problem before it is a taste problem, so we design it before we price it.
Is the first conversation free?
Yes. The design consultation is complimentary. There is no charge for the first conversation and no obligation after it.
Do you only do kitchens?
No — kitchens, bathrooms and living spaces. Boot rooms, dressers, media walls and drinks cabinets are all part of the same workshop.
Which brands do you work with?
We work with Abode, Barella, Blum, Burlington, Cosentino, Dunavox, Fratelli, International Stones, JIS Europe, Lumicucina, Miele, Miro, Quooker, Thomas Crapper, Villeroy & Boch and Waters Baths of Ashbourne.
They are chosen over twenty years rather than picked off a price list, and most of them are standing in the showroom.
Getting started
What should I bring?
Measurements if you have them, and the idea if you have not. Neither is essential — we measure everything ourselves before anything is made.
I do not know what style I want. Where do I start?
The style quiz takes about five minutes and comes back with a board of your own: the colours, the materials and the projects closest to what you are after.
How do I get in touch?
Ring 01670 789 599, email info@morpethkitchens.net, or send us a message and we will come back to you.
Still something you want to ask?
There is no charge for the first conversation and no obligation after it.
