Independent, family-run business
Thoughtful, highly individual designs
Bespoke, solid wood kitchens and cabinetry
Exceptional, personal service
We're an independent, family-run company based just outside Farnham, Surrey. Since 2012, we've designed, sourced and fitted bespoke kitchens and cabinetry for hundreds of clients across Surrey, Hampshire, Sussex, SW London and beyond.
Thoughtful designs
Every client comes to us with a vision — imagining their child's next birthday party, hosting a family Christmas, or informal dinners with friends. We exist for one purpose: to turn that vision into reality through thoughtful design that really meets your needs.
Quality, bespoke, solid wood cabinetry
We specialise in supplying luxury, bespoke, solid wood cabinetry, appliances, worktops and accessories, all designed and specified to meet your needs, suit your taste and style, and fit within your budget. For those with more limited budgets, our Hampton range offers great value for money.
Personal service
From our first conversation to the final fitting, we handle everything: design, cabinetry, appliances, worktops, lighting, and every detail in between. Whether you're replacing an existing kitchen, extending or remodelling your home, or planning a new-build, we bring the same dedication and attention to detail to every project.
Cabinetry for every room
As well as kitchens, we design and fit utility rooms, boot rooms, pantries, dressing rooms and more. Whatever the space, we bring the same care and experience to every room in your home.

FAQs At A Glance
Where do you cover?
Based at our beautiful showroom in Tilford, Surrey, we’ve designed and delivered projects across Surrey, Hampshire, East and West Sussex, Kent, Berkshire, Wiltshire and London and even as far as Dunnet Head, the northernmost tip of Scotland.
How much does a typical kitchen cost?
Whilst every project is unique, a medium-sized kitchen in our solid wood cabinetry will cost around £50-55k (including worktops, appliances, handles, cabinet lighting, fitting, our services and VAT). Many of our projects involve a second or third room (typically a utility room, pantry or boot room) and cost in the region of £50k-£80k. You can find some example prices here.
What do you charge for design?
We charge a design fee for our initial designs (£1150 for the first room and £450 for each subsequent room). This includes an initial design and a second version with your revisions. Please see our Guide to Our Services for full details. You can also read our blog here about why we charge a design fee and the value it offers.
What’s your lead time?
It typically takes 6-8 weeks to get from a discovery call to Version 2 of the design proposal. We then need minimum of 12 weeks from the point at which we can undertake a “clean" survey” i.e. all walls are up to the delivery date. It then typically takes another 2-3 weeks to fit the kitchen. So we’d allow 4-5 months from your initial enquiry to delivery, which allows plenty of time for decision-making without undue time pressure.

What makes us different?
Thoughtful Design
Headed up by our founder, Jo, our design team brings the experience of hundreds of projects and bags of creativity to every design that they work on. They will work with you to get every single detail right and ensure that the final design and specification is exactly what you're looking for.
“Our new kitchen not only looks amazing but is super functional and is so well laid out. There are so many lovely small design touches that make the kitchen feel extra special and the whole team are very helpful and friendly - a delight to work with!”
Sarah D, client.
Quality Cabinetry
Our bespoke cabinetry is of outstanding quality, whether it's one of our three Shaker-style options, or our contemporary Nordic, handless range. They are a world away from typical high street offerings, featuring solid wood carcasses and beautiful oak internals, which can be designed and configured to meet your exact needs and factory-painted in any Farrow & Ball or Little Greene colour. For those with a more limited budget, our Hampton range, made with veneered chipboard, may be an appealing option.
The kitchen punches well above its price point, solid wood and thick dove-tailed insides/carcass give it the professional, long lasting 'solid' feel; far far better than the 'best high street' MDF alternative. You cannot go wrong with this team, we were very fortunate to find them.

Personal Service
Everything that we do aims to provide the very best service that we can - we pride ourselves on offering really personal, attentive service to each and every client from creating the initial designs to working alongside your build team on site. We know that relationships are really important and our design and operations teams work closely with our clients, their wider project team and our fitters to bring your dream to life.
The entire team at Chisholm Design has been a joy to work with. We highly recommend them for their creativity, craftsmanship, and genuine customer care.
Graham and Deirdre, client.
