Timeless Oak Kitchen with Expert Craftsmanship

This bespoke oak kitchen project exemplifies Bristol Joinery’s dedication to quality, custom design, and seamless installation. Working closely with the homeowner, we designed this kitchen to perfectly complement their home’s aesthetic while maximizing functionality. After an in-depth consultation, we crafted a layout that optimally used the space, ensuring every cabinet, drawer, and worktop was tailored to fit precisely with no filler gaps, just pure craftsmanship. A beautiful island with the marble worktop complimenting the space as well as adding additional storage space.

From start to finish, the project was completed within our standard 10–12 week timescale. Our team handled everything, from sourcing top-quality oak for the cabinets to installing solid walnut worktops for a rich, natural contrast. The result is a warm, inviting kitchen designed to last for generations, with quality materials and a look that only gets better with time.

Our new oak kitchen has transformed our home. Every detail is beautiful, and Bristol Joinery was a pleasure to work with. The kitchen was well worth the wait and investment!

Quality Worktops

We have a comprehensive range of wooden worktops, perfect for any kitchen.

Oak is a classic choice for bespoke kitchen worktops, known for its strength and natural beauty. With its golden tones and prominent grain pattern, oak adds warmth and elegance to any kitchen style, from traditional to modern. It’s also highly durable, making it perfect for busy kitchens.

Cherry wood has a rich, reddish-brown colour that deepens with age, developing a beautiful patina. Its smooth, fine grain and warm tones make it ideal for adding character to a kitchen. Cherry is durable and relatively easy to maintain, though it’s slightly softer than oak or maple.

Ash is a light-coloured wood with a prominent grain pattern, giving it a natural yet refined look. It has a smooth finish and is highly durable, making it a popular choice for rustic or modern farmhouse-style kitchens. Its light hue helps make small kitchens appear more spacious.

Maple is a light-coloured wood with a smooth, fine grain that suits a minimalist or contemporary kitchen style. Its natural brightness can open up a space, making it feel larger and more inviting. Maple is also very durable, which makes it a practical choice for high-use areas.

Beech is known for its warm, pale colour and subtle grain pattern, giving a soft and modern look. It’s a hard wood that resists scratches and dents well, making it a resilient choice for worktops. Beech is especially popular in Scandinavian-inspired kitchen designs.

Tulip or Tulipwood, is a light, versatile hardwood with a smooth grain that’s popular in bespoke kitchens for those who prefer a softer wood look. It has a pale yellow or greenish tint with occasional purple or red streaks, giving each worktop a unique, subtle appearance. Tulipwood is relatively lightweight, making it easy to work with, and it accepts paint and stains well, allowing for a wide range of finishes, from natural to fully customized colours. While tulipwood is softer and slightly less durable than some other hardwoods, regular oiling can help protect it from moisture and wear, making it a suitable choice for low- to medium-use areas in the kitchen

Walnut is loved for its rich, dark brown colour and sophisticated appeal. Its fine, straight grain and luxurious appearance make it a popular choice for those looking to add depth and warmth to their kitchen. Walnut is also relatively resistant to wear, so it holds up well over time.

Mahogany worktops bring rich, warm tones and a luxurious feel to any bespoke kitchen. Known for its beautiful reddish-brown colour and fine, straight grain, mahogany is a durable hardwood that resists moisture and wear when properly treated. Mahogany ages beautifully, darkening over time to develop a deeper patina that adds to its timeless appeal. It’s well-suited for high-use areas in the kitchen due to its durability and resistance to warping. However, mahogany worktops do require regular maintenance, including oiling and occasional refinishing, to keep them looking their best. This choice is perfect for homeowners seeking a classic, elegant look that pairs well with both traditional and modern kitchen styles.

Sometimes called “African teak,” iroko is a highly durable wood with a beautiful golden-brown colour. Its natural oils make it highly resistant to water and moisture, which makes it ideal for kitchen environments. The unique colour and durability of iroko give it a unique, high-end appeal.

Zebrano, also known as zebrawood, is a striking choice with its bold, contrasting grain pattern of dark and light stripes. This exotic wood finish is often used as an accent or focal point in kitchens, adding a touch of unique character and artistry.

Teak is renowned for its durability and water resistance, as it naturally contains oils that repel moisture. This makes it especially practical for kitchen use, where spills are common. Teak has a warm, golden-brown colour and fine grain, creating a timeless and luxurious look.

Technically a grass rather than wood, bamboo has become popular as a sustainable and eco-friendly choice for worktops. It has a pale, consistent colour and fine grain pattern, giving a minimalist, modern look. Bamboo is also highly durable and resists scratches well, ideal for a busy kitchen environment.

We also have of non wood finishes with their unique look and feel.

Granite remains a classic choice for high-end kitchens. As a natural stone, granite has a beautiful, unique appearance due to its varied mineral composition and veining, giving each worktop a one-of-a-kind look. It’s extremely durable, resistant to scratches, heat, and moisture, although it needs periodic sealing to maintain its longevity. Granite is available in a variety of colours and finishes, from high-polish to matte, allowing homeowners to customize the look to their preference.

Acrylic worktops are lightweight, durable, and offer a high-gloss finish that gives kitchens a sleek, contemporary look. Made from 100% acrylic or acrylic blends, they are seamless and can be custom-moulded into various shapes and sizes, including integrated sinks. Acrylic surfaces are non-porous, which makes them easy to maintain and highly resistant to bacteria and stains. Though they’re more susceptible to scratching than harder materials like quartz, they can often be buffed out to maintain their pristine look. Acrylic worktops come in a variety of vibrant colours and patterns, allowing for creative customization in bespoke kitchen designs.

Corian is a premium, solid surface material made from a blend of acrylic polymer and natural minerals. Known for its seamless appearance, Corian worktops are a favourite for modern kitchens because they allow for smooth, integrated designs, including sinks and backsplashes. Corian surfaces are non-porous, making them highly resistant to stains and easy to clean. They can be repaired and refinished if scratched, extending their lifespan. Available in a wide range of colours and patterns, Corian can mimic natural stone or be customized with unique shades, making it a versatile option for creating a distinctive look.

Quartz composite worktops are engineered stone surfaces, made from crushed quartz blended with resins and pigments. This results in a highly durable, non-porous surface that resists stains, scratches, and impacts. Quartz worktops are popular in bespoke kitchens for their versatility and wide range of colours and patterns, mimicking natural stone while offering a more uniform look. They’re easy to maintain, requiring only a gentle wipe-down, and are resistant to mould and bacteria, making them ideal for busy kitchens.

Marble worktops are highly sought after for their luxurious, timeless beauty. Known for its natural, elegant veining, each marble worktop has a unique appearance. Though softer and more porous than granite or quartz, marble can be a suitable choice for areas less prone to heavy use, such as islands or serving counters. To maintain marble’s beauty, it requires regular sealing, but the rewards are worth it for those who appreciate the unmistakable look of true marble.

Stainless steel is popular in professional kitchens and increasingly used in bespoke home kitchens for its sleek, modern look and unparalleled durability. Non-porous and highly resistant to heat and stains, stainless steel worktops are exceptionally easy to clean and hygienic. They’re often chosen for high-traffic areas where durability is paramount. While they can show scratches and fingerprints, the patina they develop over time adds a unique character and can complement a range of kitchen styles.

Our experienced designers then create initial concepts, incorporating custom joinery, cabinetry options, and material choices like solid oak, tulipwood, or walnut. After you review and approve the design, we finalize materials and move into the crafting phase, followed by a seamless installation.
