About
Bath Kitchen Company is an independent family business that’s been operating in and around Bath for over 30 years. Every kitchen we’ve ever made is unique, because every client is different. Inspired by your tastes, home and lifestyle, we create a bespoke kitchen that strikes the ideal balance between your aesthetic and practical needs.
James & Sara Horsfall
James & Sara Horsfall are a dynamic team that bring a wealth of expertise to designing and creating bespoke kitchens for discerning clients. James learned the trade through a traditional apprenticeship under his father, working alongside skilled craftsmen and architects to gain practical knowledge of materials and design. Sara is an accomplished interior designer with an eye for detail, who brings her passion for design to the team. Together, they combine their skills to create exceptional kitchens that exceed their client’s expectations.
Heritage
Bath Kitchen Company was established in 1990 at a time when kitchens were becoming commoditised and depersonalised by national chains. The goal was simple: to offer a more personal service – designing luxury kitchens, built by regional craftsmen, using quality materials. Over the decades, Bath Kitchen Company has become a local institution, with our award winning kitchens at heart of many of Bath’s most beautiful homes.
Design Process
We’re personally invested in every kitchen we design and build. It’s about attention to your dream at every stage.
INITIAL CONSULTATION
At Bath Kitchen Company, we’ve never believed in impersonal showrooms. We don’t want you to be interrupted by other customers, pressured into making decisions, or swayed by ideas that aren’t completely ‘you’. So every project begins with a personal visit. It’s about gaining a deep sense of who you are and how you live. It’s also an opportunity to discuss initial ideas, styles, colours and materials in a relaxing environment.
DESIGN
James personally designs every kitchen. Working from his studio in central Bath, he experiments with layouts, worktop materials, cabinet colours and integrated technology – transforming that initial conversation into a set of cohesive designs that meet your brief and reflect your character. Once you’ve seen a 3D visualisation of the new space, the process of fine-tuning begins: reviewing samples and carefully deciding on every last detail – from the size of the island to the shape of the handles.
CRAFT
Experienced and passionate, our kitchen-makers are craftsmen in the truest sense. They combine the latest skills and technology with an old-fashioned pride in their work – hand-made with care and precision. Whether it’s local oak or imported Italian marble, walnut cabinets or brass panelling, we extract maximum beauty from your chosen materials.
INSTALL
At this exciting finale, detailed project management takes place in the preceding weeks: access is carefully planned, material deliveries are synchronised, cookers and fridges may need large teams to carry them, or specialist expertise may be required for assembly. But this is what we love – bringing your vision to life. And this is where our experience really counts.
