The story

John's Great Barr kitchen was already a generous space — cream shaker doors, a mantel over the range, black stone worktops that still looked sharp. What he wanted was colour and character, not a gut-out.

We replaced the cream faces with sage green shaker doors (EGGER), matched through to the mantel and boiler housing so the whole run feels intentional. The polished black stone worktops and subway splash stayed exactly where they were — proof that a makeover can change the mood of a room without touching the surfaces that are already earning their keep.

Same-day before and after photos show the shift clearly: soft cream to calm sage, same layout, stronger personality. For homeowners in Great Barr and nearby Birmingham, Sutton Coldfield, Perry Barr and Hamstead, this is the makeover brief we hear often — keep the tops, change the doors.
