We pride ourselves in our process. It is one that has been developed and refined over 40 years to ensure you are involved and in control of every element of your project, whilst we take all of the hard work out of it.
During the first stage of our design process, your assigned designer will start work on the initial brief, getting to know your aesthetic tastes while bringing function, spatial needs and budget to bear on your proposed design. Your designer will gather detailed information about the space including requirements concerning the structural, electrical and plumbing aspects of your kitchen.
Your designer will create a digital 3D model of the proposed design for your kitchen, allowing you to visualise the layout and flow. Taking into account the age and architecture of your property, as well as your aesthetic preferences, we will select the most appropriate materials for your project. Our designers delight in using unorthodox finishes such as bamboo, sustainable plastics and innovative polymers alongside traditional timbers. Just one of the aspects of our approach that ensures no two Alistair Fleming kitchens are ever the same.
In this phase, we will refine the design as we develop detailed drawings and specifications while liaising with specialists, artisans and fabricators. Your designer will also finalise the choice of materials for your project, selecting only the highest quality wood, stone and metalwork.
Our team of highly skilled cabinetmakers will start work on your custom-made cabinets. Using a combination of traditional methods alongside cutting-edge contemporary techniques, our expert workshop team bring every element of your design to life. This meticulous care and attention to detail is just one of the aspects that makes an Alistair Fleming kitchen uniquely bespoke.
As soon as we can find an installation date that works for both parties, our expert team of in-house installers will start fitting your kitchen, ensuring all elements are executed to our exacting high standards. Your designer will be on hand during the installation process to ensure all aspects of the design are implemented as planned, and that any disruption is kept to a minimum.
We appreciate that natural materials move and small changes can occur after cabinets have been installed. Where possible, we will make our fitters and design team available to amend these in the early stages of completion.
