Kitchens in Harwich
Harwich has been a working port for centuries, and you can still read that history in its streets: the medieval grid of Old Harwich, the Ha'penny Pier, the High and Low Lighthouses, and the ferries heading out from the international port at Parkeston. Planning kitchens, Harwich and Dovercourt homes raise their own questions, from narrow listed terraces to Victorian seaside villas.
We take responsibility for the whole project, with every trade under one contract, so there is one company to call when something needs sorting.
Homes in Harwich
Old Harwich. Inside the old town, many houses are tightly packed, centuries old and listed, close to landmarks such as the Electric Palace cinema and the Guildhall. Kitchens are often small, at the back of a narrow plot, with walls that are anything but straight. Cabinets have to be fitted, levelled and scribed to the room, which is work for time-served fitters rather than a flat-pack crew. Our Traditional range, with in-frame cabinetry, cock beading and mantels, suits listed properties like these.
Dovercourt. South-west of the old town, Dovercourt grew as a Victorian resort, with its beach, its iron lighthouses and streets of Victorian and Edwardian houses. These homes usually have a rear kitchen beside a separate dining room. Removing the wall between them, with a steel and building control sign-off where it is load-bearing, is a common way to create a family kitchen-diner.
Newer homes. Estates built in the last few decades, towards the edge of town, tend to have larger, more open rooms, well suited to our Modern or Handleless designs. Handleless doors open with an integrated rail or a gentle push, in matt lacquer, laminate, real wood veneer or ceramic, while Modern uses slab doors, minimal gaps and carefully planned lighting. Where a room is awkward, our Bespoke range adds walk-in pantries, boot rooms and hidden doors made to the millimetre by our own workshop. A boot room by the back door is useful in a town where so many people spend time on the beach or the water.

Costs
Complete kitchen projects with Essex Home typically range from £18,000 to £50,000 and above. The figure depends on the size of the room, the cabinetry, worktops and appliances you choose, and the building work involved. Complete projects that include all building work typically start from £18,000.
What you will not find is a vague estimate. Our final quotation is fixed and itemized: cabinetry, worktops, appliances and every trade on one document, with one price and no hidden extras. If it is not on the quotation, you will not be asked to pay for it.
Kitchen Builder
Choose a layout, door style, colours and worktop, then turn the room to see it from every angle. Send us what you like and your designer will bring it to the first visit.

Installation
We call you back within one working day of your enquiry to arrange a home design consultation, where your designer measures the room and checks the services and structure. After the 3D design and the fixed quotation, our own fitters and trades work to a written programme under one project manager, with daily updates and a tidy site every evening. Typical installations take two to four weeks. At handover we snag, clean and walk you through the kitchen, and give you your guarantee pack in writing.
Worktops are available in quartz, granite, Dekton, solid timber and Corian, templated by laser once the cabinets are in, and we supply and fit Neff, Siemens, Bosch, Miele and Fisher & Paykel appliances.
Our work
