Wrexham is a county of brick terraces, former colliery housing and expanding modern estates. That is exactly the kind of building stock a kitchen island has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.
How we approach it
A kitchen island is a permanent part of the building, so it is worth setting out properly. We take the survey, agree the drawings, machine the parts in the workshop and fit in Wrexham in one visit wherever the programme allows.
How we build it
Carcass work is birch ply or MR MDF depending on span and load. Face frames and doors are solid hardwood. Everything is machined on the same setting so stiles, rails and reveals line through, and shadow gaps stay parallel from one end of the run to the other.
Finish and materials
Finishing happens in the workshop wherever possible. Sprayed paint gives an even film that brushwork cannot match, and the only work left on site is the final touch-in around scribes and fixings.

Straight answers
Kitchen Islands in Wrexham — common questions
What worktop thickness looks right on an island?
20mm reads contemporary, 30mm reads substantial, and a mitred 60 to 100mm apron gives the slab look. The thicker the apron, the more the carcass underneath has to be set back and reinforced.
Can an island take a sink or a hob?
Yes, but both need services routed through the floor, which is straightforward on a suspended floor and a much bigger job on a slab. Extraction over an island hob is the other consideration — a downdraft or a ceiling unit rather than a standard hood.
Should the island match the rest of the kitchen?
It often works better in a contrasting colour or a natural timber, because it reads as a piece of furniture rather than a run of units. A different worktop on the island is a good move too.
Can we have sockets in the island?
Yes, and you will want them. Either a face-mounted socket in the end panel or a pop-up unit in the worktop. It needs a spur run before the floor closes up.
How long does a bespoke job take from order to fitting?
Most fitted furniture runs four to eight weeks from approved drawings to fitting day. Kitchens, staircases and timber windows are longer at eight to fourteen weeks because the components are larger and the finishing schedule is longer. We give you a date band at quotation and confirm the fitting week once the drawings are signed off.
