We highly recommend Dewhirst Kitchens if you are interested in quality products and excellent customer service. This is third kitchen we have purchased from them across three different properties and their attention to detail has been faultless every time. Thank you to Damian and team for helping us with getting the right design for our needs and if we need a fourth kitchen in the future, we know where to come.

Great place & service for all my kitchen needs. I brought my own kitchen units and appliances from Dewhirst in Oct 2016. Now am helping the in-laws choose for their new kitchen from Dewhirst.

A personal touch goes a long way! Dewhirst provided the kitchen for our house around 7 years ago now. Despite having 2 children and 2 dogs it still looks fantastic. During the following years I have called them with enquires on a number of occasions for advice or small parts and without fail Damian and Mike are knowledgable, helpful and go above and beyond to sort out anything I need. The quality of the units are fantastic and come ready assembled and the prices are very reasonable.
So much so that I have used them for a rental property too. I have recommended them as the first point of call to all my friends looking for a new kitchen. I am writing this now as Damian dropped a small part round to me the other day and we were talking and I said I would be more than happy to review them as everyone needs to know that an independent shop can be as competitive as a chain but provides so much more! Thank you Jay and Mandy Patel
