Kitchen showroom, Parkgate Road, ChesterChester kitchens
Bespoke kitchens designed with Laura in the Parkgate Road showroom, surveyed and project managed by Ryan, and fitted to a high standard. From the first sketch to the final snag, one team looks after it all.
De Novo Kitchens offers kitchen design and fitting in Chester from a showroom on Parkgate Road. Laura and Ryan run the business today, and customers deal with them from the first visit to the last handle going on.
Customers describe being listened to, then shown "clever improvements" they had not thought of. Ryan carries out the survey, coordinates suppliers and fitting schedules, and handles any snagging, so the project runs smoothly, efficiently and without stress.
Bring your ideas, photos and wish list to the showroom. Laura listens, then suggests thoughtful changes that make the space work harder, from painted shaker kitchens to sleek handleless designs, islands, breakfast bars and tall larder units.
Ryan visits to measure up and comes up with creative solutions on the spot. Once you go ahead, he coordinates suppliers, organises the fitting schedule and deals with any snagging, so you have one person to talk to throughout.
Old kitchens stripped out and new ones fitted with precision, including flooring, appliances and electrics where needed. Customers praise the fitters for keeping everything spotless and for the craftsmanship and attention to detail in the finish.
Made-to-measure media walls, bookcases and storage designed to match your kitchen, with lit shelves and space for the TV and speakers. Customers single out details like a bespoke media unit and a hand-carved wine rack that looked shop-made.
The same design and fitting care applied to bedrooms. De Novo has designed and fitted wardrobes and chests of drawers for kitchen customers who came back for more, finished to the same exacting standards and attention to detail.

From the moment I stepped into the showroom, I was warmly welcomed by Laura, and immediately felt a real sense of confidence in Denovo Kitchens. ... Communication from both Laura and Ryan was outstanding throughout the entire project. Ryan took full responsibility for coordinating with suppliers, organising fitting schedules, and handling any snagging issues. ... I would strongly recommend Denovo Kitchens to anyone. If you are considering a new kitchen, go see them.
Below is our review of our lovely new De Novo kitchen. Since then we asked if De Novo could install a fitted wardrobe and chest of drawers. They certainly could, and now, under the new ownership of Laura and Ryan, they designed and fitted our bedroom furniture to the highest of standards. Loads of consultation, loads of help....all amazing. Thanks Laura and Ryan. Same exacting standards and attention to detail and brilliant service as before and terrific value...
Five stars sums it up perfectly. Our new kitchen by De Novo has just been completed, and we couldn't be more happy. We weren't the easiest of clients as we kept changing our minds and re-budgeting, but Julie did an amazing job of guiding us through the whole process of design, and dealing with our changes with professionalism, equanimity and a smile. She really could not have been more helpful. Rick and his team also did a wonderful job in the fitting-out. All on time, in budget, and finished to the highest standard others have mentioned. We did consider and talk to bigger national companies at the beginning but De Novo not only gave us much better quality but also came in cheaper. Incredible. How do they do it?
We shall miss our almost daily chats to Julie, and wish her, Rick and all the team the very best for the future. A big thank you.
Wonderful service from Julie and Rick from start to finish. They oversaw the whole project and installed our dream kitchen in less than a month, awesome considering the old kitchen was completely stripped out and a whole new one fitted including flooring, appliances, electrics etc. Excellent suggestions to help us design the kitchen and the finish and workmanship was second to none. A bespoke media unit makes the whole room and we have a fantastic stylish and welcoming hub to our home. We would definitely recommend De Novo Kitchens to anyone thinking of having a new kitchen, nothing was too much trouble and the attention to detail is amazing.
Over the moon with our new kitchen designed by Julie and managed/fitted by Rick. The people they use are the highest quality, attention to detail at every stage of the installation, and final result definitely having the wow factor! Thank you both so much for everything, from walking into the showroom 6 months ago to finally dancing in our dream kitchen tonight has been an absolute pleasure!
