Show me your DIY kitchens!

[polar81]

I'm hoping to order our new kitchen from DIY kitchens for our extension which has just had the foundations laid! Pretty sure I want the Helmsley kitchen (possibly in sage). I know a lot of mumsnetters love diy kitchens so was wondering if anyone is willing to share a picture of theirs with the model and colour you chose. Thank you.

DIY Kitchens, Norton painted sage.

Thanks so much chasingsquirrels- that's lovely. How have you found the sage? I really liked it when we went to the show room and on the little wooden block you pick up, but it looks dark when I use the colour changer thingy on the website.

Also wondering if I should go sage on bottom units and alabaster (whiteish) on top, or whether this two tone look will date badly.

Some might be pre tiling / finishing.

Lovely and much lighter than on the website.

I love the sage (been in about 18 months) , I nearly went with cream but if wanted the sage for quite a while.

These were the 3d images from their planner/visualiser for comparison.

That sounds just like me- I really want the sage, but feel something white would be more 'sensible'. Really like it in your pics though.

I am getting a DIY kitchen next week so great to see this thread! Love the kitchen @Chasingsquirrels and sorry to divert the thread but could I ask please what kind of floor you have- love the colour!

It is Polyflor Camaro, can't remember the specific name.
I've had it it the hallway for about 10 years and wanted the same through the kitchen, conservatory & utility. Luckily it was still available!

It's an LVT, like Amitco and Karndean.

Thanks!

I've just had the stanbury and its cornflour blue. It's not quite finished yet. I still need to tile around the range oven and put a shelf up.

Not sure if this will help, but this profile on Instagram has several stories about their Hemsley kitchen. Lots of info and tips etc.

They have an Instagram account where they show pictures sent in by customers. I'm planning on using them for our next kitchen.

I’ve got Helmsley, bespoke painted. Absolutely love it. Great quality so whilst my colours are unusual it would still be a great kitchen in any colour. The sage looks lovely.

One of my clients is having one fitted in a few weeks - Helmsley Dakar/Tern White with quartz tops unfortunately they are still at the ripping out walls stage so not much to see at the moment.

Iseeyoulookingatme and jeansandjumper you both have beautiful kitchens! This getting me very excited!

Altino range in petrol blue with Duropal Carrera marble laminate worktop from DIY tiles were from a local tile warehouse and just this week had slate tile effect vinyl flooring put down

Some nice worktops in the photos too- I'c really like white/ish quartz. What have you all got?

I've a Norton Alabaster. I contemplated a bolder colour, but a few years in I'm glad I didn't, as I can revamp the whole things with minimal effort if I want a change.

@Gardenwalldilema lovely kitchen! Please could I ask what flooring you have? Thanks

This is Linwood in dove grey and cobham blue, with a bit quite white quartz

@newyorky09 thanks!its a polyfloor lvt in warm oak (or similar, can't quite remember)

Beautiful kitchen @JeansAndJumper! Can I ask did you have the cockbeading removed from the Helmsley? I have had a sample Helmsley door delivered today in Cobham Blue and it seems very fussy with the beading. I thought it looked great at first and couldn't work out where the cockbeading was that I had heard about on mumsnet then realised I was looking at the wrong side of the door
