The timeline for a Bellissima Kitchens installation depends on the complexity and scale of the project, but typically ranges from six to twelve weeks from first consultation to finished kitchen. Initially, the design process usually takes one to two weeks, during which we work closely with you to finalise the layout, materials, and finishes. Once the design is approved, we place orders with our suppliers. If you opt for bespoke or imported products, such as German cabinetry, delivery can take between three and six weeks. During this period, any preparatory work, including removal of your old kitchen, plumbing, or electrical upgrades, should be scheduled early to avoid delays. The installation phase itself generally lasts one to two weeks. Our expert fitters meticulously install all cabinetry, worktops, appliances, and fixtures, ensuring every element meets our exacting standards. We prioritise clear communication throughout the process, providing regular updates to keep you informed. We also strive to minimise disruption to your daily routine and ensure the work area is kept tidy. Once installation is complete, we conduct a thorough inspection and walk-through with you to confirm everything is to your satisfaction. Any minor finishing touches are promptly addressed. Overall, while the process requires careful planning, Bellissima Kitchens is committed to delivering a seamless experience and a kitchen that exceeds your expectations.

Absolutely. Customisation is central to the Bellissima Kitchens ethos. We believe your kitchen should be as individual as you are, reflecting your style, requirements, and how you use the space. From the outset, our design team collaborates closely with you to understand your preferences, lifestyle, and the dimensions of your room. We offer a wide range of bespoke options, including cabinetry styles, colours, finishes, and materials. Whether you desire handleless units, classic shaker doors, or luxurious wood veneers, we tailor the design to suit your tastes. Functionality is equally important. We can incorporate innovative storage solutions such as pull-out larders, corner carousels, and hidden compartments. Features like breakfast bars, integrated appliances, wine fridges, and smart lighting can all be customised to enhance your kitchen’s practicality and aesthetic. If you prefer the renowned precision of German kitchens, we can include these elements in your design. Alternatively, we also offer more traditional bespoke joinery with detailed craftsmanship. Our 3D design software allows you to visualise your kitchen before installation, ensuring every detail meets your expectations. While bespoke kitchens may require a longer lead time, the result is a kitchen tailored precisely to you — a space of enduring beauty and functionality. This is the Bellissima Kitchens promise: design excellence centred entirely on your needs.

Budgeting for a new kitchen is one of the most important steps in your project, and it can be tricky to estimate costs accurately without understanding the many factors involved. At Bellissima Kitchens, we work closely with you from the outset to establish a realistic budget that reflects your aspirations and financial parameters. Factors influencing the overall cost include the size of the kitchen, the complexity of the design, choice of materials, and the level of customisation. Premium materials such as natural stone worktops, solid wood cabinetry, and German-engineered components typically come at a higher price point but offer greater durability and luxury. Additional features such as integrated appliances, smart technology, bespoke joinery, and specialist lighting will also impact the budget. Installation costs, including labour, plumbing, electrical work, and any preparatory construction, should be factored in as well. At Bellissima Kitchens, we provide transparent quotations that itemise all elements, so there are no surprises. We recommend setting aside a contingency fund (around 10-15%) for unexpected expenses that may arise during the project. Ultimately, investing in a quality kitchen adds value and enjoyment to your home, and Bellissima Kitchens is committed to delivering exceptional results that fit within your budget.
