Very happy with our kitchen revamp We decided to go for a kitchen revamp rather than a full new kitchen. Claes listened and talked us through various door designs, handles and colours and altered a couple of cupboards to give us a fresh and modern kitchen without ripping it all out. Claes and Callum’s approach to the work made us feel calm and confident and enjoyed having them around. Communication throughout the project was excellent and the work was finished to a high standard. It was great they were able to recommend a floor and splashback tiler who was excellent too. Thank you.

From first contact with the lovely John to completion this week, I am so glad I went with Swedemade to renovate my flat, including installation of a new shower room. The team have been very professional, thorough and tidy; I have been very impressed with the quality of work and strong communication throughout. Claes, John, Calum, Paul, Colin, Dave (hope I haven't forgotten anyone!) are a class act and I am delighted with what is virtually a new flat! Thank you so much guys! I'd recommend Swedemade unreservedly if you want quality workmanship. Nothing was too much trouble.

Happy customers, thank you! We are very grateful to Swedemade for our wonderful extension rebuild/restructure, new kitchen, bathroom and utility room. We have strong design ideas and Claes and John supported our opinions and ideas throughout the process, resulting in rooms which feel very us. The work involved a large range of trades and John pulled that together very well for us - providing a clear plan of action and timing in advance. All the workers worked brilliantly around us having two small children and living in the house throughout, they were considerate of this at all times even though I’m sure they’d rather have had radio background noise than paw patrol and conversations about starting school. We knew we didn’t have the capacity to manage the project ourselves and some other quotes we got were very out of budget so we are very grateful that John could provide project management and the work we needed in a quote which was accessible for us. We love our pink kitchen - thank you!

Bathroom renovations John and his team did a beautiful job completely refurbishing two bathrooms for me. The work they do is of the highest standard, using expert professional plasterers, electricians, tilers, plumbers, painters and carpenters and John leading everyone brilliantly. I especially appreciated how thoughtful John and his team were in approaching the job so as to keep costs down yet not compromise on quality of materials. The results are stunning. I had Swedemade renovate my kitchen a few years ago and was so happy with the result that I called them again for the bathrooms--I'm delighted I did and I recommend them highly!

We recently had our kitchen renovated by Swedemade, and we couldn't be more pleased with the whole journey. From the start, Claes was incredibly helpful in guiding us through our budget and helped us recognise that we needed to extend it to get the kitchen we really wanted. Claes visited a few times to go through our requirements. They were able to design custom cupboard depths at our request and suggested features we hadn't thought of to really make the space work. Claes and Callum did a fantastic job with the installation. They removed the old kitchen quickly, and during the install they were fast, detail-oriented, and just easy to have around. They left very little mess and always kept the room tidy. In addition, Claes recommended a plumber and a plasterer for some additional work, and both tradespeople were fantastic—friendly, quick, and did a really good job. Whilst they were on site, Claes was always available to help with questions and spoke with them directly to keep things moving. There were a few items that either didn’t arrive or were damaged when they did, however Claes dealt with this and kept us updated when they were reordered. None of this delayed the progress. He also recommended our worktop and flooring supplier, and we had a great experience with them as well—the results were excellent. Overall, it was a truly positive experience, and we’re thrilled with our new bespoke kitchen and are really enjoying the space. We would highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be going back for our next project. Thank you Claes, Callum, and Swedemade.

Exceeded expectations John and Claes have exceeded my expectations throughout and it is rare I say that. They have been honest, professional, have communicated really well, accommodated our requirements and given great advice. We had two rooms that connected through double doors knocked through into one big open plan kitchen and several other modifications made. We are delighted with the results, it has completely changed the space. Their project management, attention to detail, flexibility, good humour and the contractors they used were all great. We felt totally comfortable having them in our home and need to save up now for a new bathroom so we can get them back again. Thank you John and Claes 🤩

A very happy customer I am so pleased I chose Swedemade to have my kitchen revamped. I felt completely comfortable for Claes to go ahead immediately he gave me his quote. His attention to detail is amazing and it shows in the finished product. The different ideas he offered me were so right and I can't thank him, and his son, Callum, enough for doing such an excellent job.

Kitchen replacement Swedemade undertook a complete kitchen replacement for me as well as installing additional units in the dining room. I am extremely pleased with the work carried out. Everything proceeded smoothly, from the initial inspection by John to the installation by Claes and Callum. Claes made very helpful suggestions to optimise the layout and functionality of the units and the final result is superb. Claes engages very professional people to undertake work on the services (electrical, plumbing, gas) and the kitchen was completed to a high standard on the timescale promised. However, the key thing that sets Swedemade apart from many other companies is the quality of communication. Claes kept me informed at all stages of the process, consulted me when there were decisions to be made and responded incredibly promptly to any queries from me. The degree of engagement with the customer is second to none. In conclusion I highly recommend Swedemade for kitchen replacement/refurbishment.

House extension and new kitchen Swedemade took on the role of project managing our large new extension and kitchen fitting. I found both John and Claes to be both very skillful at their respective roles, great to deal with and good to their word. Despite the supply challenges during the COVID the project was completed to a high standard as promised and they were also happy to accommodate our living needs as we didn't move out during the build. We remain very happy with the work done and would definitely recommend their services.

The great thing about Swedemade is that you get Claes' impressive design talent but they also see the whole project through, leaving you with nothing to organise or worry about. We got Swedemade to completely rebuild our old kitchen. Claes produced a fantastic design, which we continue to enjoy, and managed the whole project, which was complicated and involved a lot of different trades. Thanks to his and John’s skills and expertise, we now have an absolutely top-notch kitchen. We subsequently got Swedemade back to put some custom storage in one of our bedrooms. The results look very slick indeed, and save us a lot of space.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Claes from Swedemade on a kitchen refurbishment project, and I couldn't be happier with the results! My tired, outdated kitchen has been completely transformed into a sleek and modern space that exceeds all my expectations. The team at Swedemade did an outstanding job replacing the doors and handles, giving my kitchen a fresh and contemporary look. The attention to detail was impeccable, and the craftsmanship truly shines through. The quartz worktops are an absolute showstopper! The selection of quartz offered by Swedemade via Oxford Stone Craftsmanship was extensive, and I found the perfect one to complement my kitchen's new aesthetic. The installation was seamless, and the result is a stunning and durable surface that adds both elegance and functionality to the space. Throughout the entire process, the Swedemade team demonstrated professionalism and expertise. They were attentive to my needs, provided helpful suggestions, and worked efficiently to ensure the project was completed in a timely manner. I appreciated their commitment to quality and their dedication to customer satisfaction. Not only did Swedemade transform my kitchen aesthetically, but they also enhanced its functionality. The thoughtful design choices and meticulous installation have made my kitchen a joy to work in. Cooking and entertaining have taken on a new level of enjoyment, thanks to the beautiful and practical changes Swedemade implemented. I highly recommend Swedemade to anyone considering a kitchen refurbishment. Their team's passion for their work, attention to detail, and commitment to customer satisfaction set them apart. Thank you, Swedemade, for turning my kitchen dreams into a reality! I am beyond thrilled with the results and will certainly be recommending your services to friends and family.

Claes was excellent at helping us design our new kitchen - head and shoulders above the other firms who quoted for the job. And then he was very good in terms of actually doing the job with his team and he was also able to give us help after the kitchen was completed in terms of minor adjustments and advice! Thanks Claes!

Swedemade were head and shoulders above the other kitchen suppliers we chose to tender for our new kitchen. They actually listened to what WE wanted ! The kitchen installation and associated building works were project managed entirely by Claus and completed on time, within budget and with no nasty surprises. We now have a superbly crafted kitchen that more than satisfies our needs, thanks to the skills and professionalism of Swedemade.

Satisfied Cumnor customer Claes and team did two wonderful jobs for us in kitchen and utility room: a beautiful and very practical kitchen island with a stunning solid oak counter top, and massively improving our utility cupboard space. It was refreshing to deal with somebody who wasn't insisting on our buying a whole new kitchen when we only needed to improve what was there already. Not bargain basement prices but reasonable given the high quality of the finished product. We heartily recommend Swedemade!
