Our Bespoke Utility Rooms

 

We have recently had a surge of customers requesting utility rooms along with their bespoke kitchens. And why not? Utility rooms can be a real treat, helping with additional storage space, and hiding away laundry machines.

Whether they’re adjacent to your kitchen, disguised as kitchen units or a totally separate room, utility rooms are becoming more and more popular due to their practicality and more aesthetically pleasing appearance. If yours has an exterior door, it could easily double as a boot room for storing wellies and shoes after jumping in all of those muddy puddles.

A sink in a utility room can be really beneficial. From hand-washing delicate items, pre-soaking and treating stains before throwing clothes in the washing machine. They also make excellent (small-ish) dog bathtubs!

If you’re painting your utility room a contrasting colour to your kitchen, a nice way to create continuity is by using the same handles on your cabinetry. This will also make your space feel more luxurious,
