Kind words from our customers
"We needed a bespoke kitchen to accommodate particular measurements and spaces and not something ‘off the shelf’. Other companies we had spoken to were not able to embrace our particular design needs, but Ardent Kitchens stood out from the rest as a company that could work with us to design the best kitchen for the space.
It was very reassuring to know that the kitchen was being made by hand locally and that the team were always available to address any ongoing design alterations or questions. We could see immediately that we were going to be in safe hands and that Ardent Kitchens would be working with us collaboratively from inception of the design right through to delivery and installation. In our kitchen, our favourite feature is the pantry cupboard and the island is also certainly a stand out feature.
We were undertaking a much wider building project and the new kitchen was just one element within the wider scheme of works so there was a huge amount to coordinate. Ardent Kitchens really helped us with the selection and delivery of appliances, sinks, and worktops and also lightened the load by working with our other trades (builders, plumbers, electricians) to ensure that the delivery and installation of the kitchen ran smoothly.
Dave made the entire process enjoyable and was on hand from beginning to end to answer any questions and overcome any issues. This was extremely reassuring.
Before we began the process of choosing our kitchen, we worried that getting the design and layout of the kitchen right was my biggest concern, particularly because we needed some measurements to be very bespoke to the space. However, working with Ardent Kitchens really alleviated the stress of the design process. We have already recommended Dave and his team at Ardent Kitchens to friends and family!"

When choosing our kitchen, we were so impressed with the quality of Ardent Kitchens: their kitchens are beautiful! When designing our kitchen, Dave really listened to what we wanted and suggested new and different design ideas to make our new kitchen work even better for us. My favourite part of my new kitchen is certainly the larder: I love the larder unit! It is fantastic being able to see everything layer out: it’s so clear to see what I have got inside the larder! I also love the huge amount of worktop space that Ardent Kitchens managed to create. Ardent Kitchens worked with us to establish how the kitchen was going to work for us and were very flexible. They were able to make adjustments to designs without any problem, making our kitchen perfect for us. The team at Ardent Kitchens have been very professional and their attention to detail has been exceptional. One worry I had at the start was whether we would be able to utilise the space in our kitchen fully. Dave managed to design us a kitchen that really does use every part of the room. We would absolutely recommend Ardent Kitchens!

"As a mother of two young children and a recently trained chef, the kitchen is the most important room in the house to me. It's the heart of the home and the place where I spend most time so I needed a robust design to accommodate the dual needs of family and business as well as a welcoming feel and beautiful look to the newly extended space. Over several key meetings, Dave tweaked design ideas, coming up with some brilliant suggestions which we incorporated into our final scheme. His attention to detail was superb and I always felt that I could ask him for advice, drawing on his extensive experience at any point in the design process.
Now that the kitchen is complete, it has surpassed my expectations in terms of the layout and the wonderful craftsmanship evident in every aspect of the joinery, from the dovetailed joints to the soft closing drawers, the clever use of every inch of cupboard space with bespoke shelving and beautifully designed doors. I couldn't be happier with our new kitchen and I'm so pleased Dave gently steered me towards a contrasting colour for the island - I love it! I have since commissioned Dave to make our utility room units which I am thrilled with as well.
I can't recommend Ardent Kitchens highly enough. The quality of both design and craftsmanship is outstanding and we feel very fortunate to have found a company that is so passionate about achieving excellence for their customers."

"My kitchen is the heart of my home and I had always wanted to have a bespoke design to fit in with my family, dogs and lifestyle. Ardent Kitchens were great from the start; they came to my home and looked at the current layout, how I used the space and listened to what was important to me with regard to the design of the units.
I wanted a large larder cupboard, a bin that my dog Lilly could not get into and the kitchen design had to work around my new range cooker. Ardent drew up an initial plan which he then tweaked slightly on his second visit after a further discussion, when I choose the hardware, paint colours and door design.
The process went very smoothly indeed, with no holdups and I now have the kitchen of my dreams. It is just beautiful; the drawers slide in and out with ease and the classic design is full of honesty and integrity. The finish is excellent and Ardent's attention to detail is evident throughout.
I strongly recommend Ardent Kitchens, so much so I am now planning to get them to come back and do the utility room later this year."

"Just a note to say how pleased we are with the kitchen you've built for us. From beginning to end it's been great working with you. The kitchen is truly amazing and we still stand and just admire it. The quality of the work is first rate and nothing has been too much trouble, especially as our building work was ahead of schedule and you made sure everything was ready on time. The guys working on the extension commented on the quality and we've had lots of friends comment on how great it looks. Thanks for your work and hopefully we'll be getting you to build an island next."
