Congleton
Bespoke kitchen designers in Congleton
Congleton is the furthest east we regularly work, about forty-five minutes from our Cadishead workshop. We design, make and fit kitchens across the town and its villages, from Buglawton and Mossley to Astbury, Eaton and Somerford.
Made for the house you have
Kitchens made for how Congleton lives.
Congleton grew on silk and cotton, and the town centre still has the mill-town terraces and Victorian villas to show for it, along with Georgian frontages on the older streets. The newer estates to the north and west are family houses with open plan ground floors that need zoning more than cupboards. Out in Astbury, Eaton, Somerford and Hulme Walfield the stock turns to brick farmhouses, barn conversions and stone cottages towards Bosley and the Macclesfield Canal, where thick walls, low beams and small windows all shape the design.
We measure every room ourselves and draw each kitchen from a blank page. Cabinets are made to the millimetre in our workshop, so a sloping ceiling in a cottage or a chimney breast in a terrace becomes part of the design rather than a problem to hide.
Worth the drive
Congleton is a longer trip for us than most, and we plan for it. The first visit is at your home so we can see the room, the light and how the house is used. Design and 3D visuals follow, and you are welcome to visit the studio in Cadishead to see finishes and handle samples.
Every cabinet is made in that same workshop and fitted by our own team. The people who built it are the people who fit it. There is no subcontracted installer and no call centre in between.
If you are extending, bring us in before the drawings are final. Positions for the island, sink and extraction affect steels and glazing, and settling them on paper saves changes on site. We are used to working alongside east Cheshire builders.
Made for small rooms and big ones
A recent project in Tarporley, a village not unlike those around Congleton, shows how we handle a compact room. The brief was a more workable layout and as much storage as the footprint allowed, for a parent moving in. We rebuilt the plan around how one person cooks and moves, and used every centimetre of wall. Read the Tarporley project.
At the other end of the scale, our Marple project ran full-height cabinetry under high ceilings to turn storage into architecture. Both came from the same workshop and the same method: understand the room, design around the people, then build it by hand.
Traditional, contemporary, farmhouse or modern, the kitchen is drawn for the house it will sit in.
“We are delighted with our kitchen. Russell was brilliant. He listened to our ideas and because everything was made to measure we were able to get exactly what we wanted. The quality is excellent and we listened to Russell’s recommendations on where to save money and where not to compromise. Highly recommended!”
“5* Experience with TKB, my kitchen is now more family friendly thanks to Neil and the team. Neil came up with a fab idea of incorporating seating into our kitchen, which we now use and is daily perfect for family life. The overall service was faultless nothing was too much, great choice of colours and quartz worktops and outstanding craftsmanship. Highly recommend TKB, thank you again.”
“We had our Kitchen & Utility revamped last May by TKB Kitchens prior to moving in to our new home. We only had a small budget to get it more modern, usable and liveable with. From start to finish it was a positive experience resulting in an amazing transformation…better than we ever expected. Neil and the team at every level were super friendly, reliable and supportive and always mindful of our budget and everything else we had going on….trying to get moved in and due a baby at any moment. The quality of work and service we received was to a higher standard than I received a few years before when designing my dream kitchen at our old house m with a bigger high street kitchen company and has only made me more aware for future when designing my dream kitchen again here. It will be TKB who I call.”
“Fantastic job. Russ is a true craftsman and perfectionist. Can’t say enough about him and his right hand man Mike 👍”
“We were searching for a kitchen that balances quality and affordability without a pushy sales approach which led us to Russell from TKB. He visited our home after our recent extension and brought a wealth of knowledge and fantastic design ideas. We felt completely at ease, never experiencing a pressured sales pitch. The result is a stunning kitchen that is both beautiful and functional, perfectly fitting our space. It’s become the heart of our home, where we gather and entertain loved ones. For anyone in search of a breathtaking, high-quality kitchen at a reasonable price, look no further. I wholeheartedly recommend TKB and am incredibly grateful for their exceptional work. We loved the service so much that we are moving next year and are using TKB again to install a new kitchen and a walk-in wardrobe in our new home.”

Questions from Congleton homeowners
Yes. Our workshop is in Cadishead, about forty-five minutes away, and we design, make and fit across east Cheshire. The drive is part of the job.
We do. Astbury, Somerford and the lanes towards Bosley have plenty of them. Beams, uneven floors and thick walls are measured and designed around, and in-frame doors, hand-painted finishes and traditional ironmongery all come from our own workshop.
Small rooms are where bespoke earns its keep. Standard units waste the odd centimetres and made-to-measure uses them. Our Tarporley project is a good example of a compact kitchen planned around one person's day.
Before the architect's drawings are final. The positions of the island, sink, extraction and glazing affect the structure, and getting them right early saves changes on site. We will coordinate with your builder.
