Kitchen Hero in Bandon

Georgian fronts, seventies estates and farmhouses.

Bandon is a proper town with proper houses. Georgian and Victorian townhouses along the main streets, with tall rooms at the front and narrower kitchens at the back. Estates from the sixties, seventies and eighties on the edges, with solid block walls and kitchens due a rethink. Farmhouses out towards Enniskeane and Kilbrittain with deep reveals and rooms laid out for a different way of living.

We work in all of them. Marius comes to your Bandon home for a free consultation, measures the room himself and brings samples. He designs the kitchen around the room, it’s cut to size and painted in your colour, and he fits it. If an architect is already involved on an extension, we work alongside them.

Bandon homes

What suits a Bandon house.

Three kinds of home we hear about most from Bandon.

Townhouses in the centre

The kitchen is usually at the back and narrower than the rooms at the front, sometimes with a step down. A single wall run or a galley with tall storage at the end keeps the floor clear. Where a dividing wall has already come out, an island can anchor the new open room. Everything is cut to the walls as they are.

Estate houses from the sixties to the eighties

These kitchens were fitted for their day and have done well to last. The question is whether the layout still works. If it does, new doors and a fresh painted finish can make it feel new. If it doesn’t, a redesign that opens it to the dining room and adds a small utility usually pays back every day.

Farmhouses and country houses

Deep reveals, thick walls, a big room that used to be the heart of the farm. A window seat in the reveal, a dresser-style unit on the gable wall, an island where the table used to be. Painted units in a soft colour keep the character. A home office in a spare room is a common add-on.

Do you cover Bandon?

Yes. We work in Bandon town, Innishannon, Kilbrittain, Enniskeane, Ballineen and the townlands between, and into Cork city beyond that. Our workshop is in Skibbereen and West Cork is where we work.

What does the free consultation involve?

Marius comes to your home, looks at the room and how you use it, measures it himself and brings finish samples so you can see colours in your own light. He designs around what he measured and you get a written, itemised quote with a clear timeline. There’s no obligation.

Should I renovate my kitchen or replace it?

It depends on the units and the layout. If the carcasses are sound and the room works, new doors or a repaint can do a lot. If the layout is the problem, patching it is money badly spent. Marius will tell you which at the consultation, even when the honest answer is the smaller job.

Can you fit a home office as well as the kitchen?

Yes. A built-in desk in a spare room, an alcove or under the stairs is measured and fitted the same way as the kitchen, and can be painted to match. Plenty of Bandon houses have a room that could work harder.

I am delighted with my kitchen. Marius took the small space I had, and rearranged the design of the kitchen to fit the space. It is now a refreshing and contemporary space with tons of storage. His attention to detail is exceptional. 100% recommend.

I needed a press built in where a fridge used to be and it had to look like the rest of the kitchen presses. Marius was so exact and his attention to detail is fantastic. Highly recommend him.

Placed a tricky ‘under-the-stairs’ cupboard with an eye for detail. Great result, we are so happy with it and the loads of storage! Neat on the job, flexible, excellent communication and Marius of ‘Kitchen Hero’ was only happy when the fit and finish were perfect 😃

Marius was a pleasure to deal with, from design ideas all the way up to construction and fitting. He gave us loads of extras, went through all the options and tailored our kitchen to our budget. The quality of his workmanship and his products are out of this world! He lives up to his name as the kitchen hero. Along with all the traditional carpentry/joinery skills he looked after the plumbing and working for the relocation of sinks, switches etc etc. thanks again for making our house a home!
