Bells Builders Merchants • Aug 01, 2023

Is your bathroom or kitchen looking a little worse for wear? Or is it simply craving an essential update? No matter what you’re looking for, hiring a kitchen or bathroom design company will make all the difference to your home. It might be small renovations or a complete redo that you’re looking for, in which case, hiring a professional team has many benefits. To find out more about how kitchen and bathroom design companies can help you, keep reading!


How Can A Kitchen Or Bathroom Design Company Help Me?

There are a multitude of ways that a kitchen or bathroom design company can help you create the space of your dreams. These are a few of the reasons why hiring a design company can be beneficial!


●    Property Value - Having a well needed redesign or completely redone kitchen or bathroom can drastically improve your home’s property value. If you are considering selling your home at some point in the future, having modern furnishings can be an attractive asset to many potential buyers. It can help you to view your refurb as a long term investment.


●    Accommodating Your Needs - You may have very specific requirements because of the space limitations in your home, or you may be after a very specific design style. No matter the reason, a design company can help accommodate these needs in the most efficient and cost effective way. They may also be able to suggest new ideas that you hadn’t thought of, or spot functional problems that could damage your property later on down the line.


●    Save You From Costly Repairs - As mentioned, an experienced and professional design company will be able to spot mistakes or structures that will make your home less functional. These problems could end up being more harmful than you realise, and causing you a costly repair further down the line. By hiring a design company, they can help to mitigate these kinds of issues by spotting them early on and offering a range of potential solutions.


What Can I Expect From A Bathroom Or Kitchen Design Company? 

For those who haven’t worked with a design company before, we have explained some of the key things you can expect when hiring a company.


Expert designers

When you hire a bathroom or kitchen designer, you can rely on their knowledge and experience in the field to help you make your visions come to life. You may have certain aesthetics, colours or areas of your home that you want designing to your exact specifications and a designer is here to help you with just that. They may also have their own kitchen or bathroom ideas which they can share with you too, and the process becomes more collaborative.


Your bathroom or kitchen may have awkward spaces or poor plumbing running through it. A designer will be able to spot minor details that you may not have considered and offer you the best, most cost effective solutions.


Customer Satisfaction

Customer satisfaction is beneficial to both the client, and the design company. When a client's needs are met or exceeded, the company maintains its reputation and has good reviews!


Rather than handing over a list of all your requirements and wants, your design company will actually work with you to find the best possible designs and solutions for your design project. Providing high levels of customer satisfaction is important to ensure that a company is putting their clients first, taking time to understand their needs and deliver excellent products or services.


Installation Services

Your design company will be able to assist you with installation services, helping the process move along in a timely manner while overseeing the project. This means that you can take a step back and let them handle the work!


Things like quality assurance and ensuring everything is running smoothly will be one of the main responsibilities of your design company.


Range Of Materials & Styles

You may be browsing kitchen and design ranges online or in bathroom or kitchen showrooms, however, you may be struggling to find the perfect design you’ve been looking for. Working with a design company means they will be able to show you extensive design ranges, and work with you to help you find the right style for your home.


If you decide to go with bespoke or custom designs, your design company should be able to accommodate this and work with you to ensure the project meets your exact requirements.


Showrooms And Galleries

With a design company, you have access to their showrooms and galleries, which can help you massively during the planning and design process, especially if you’re struggling to find a style that you like.


Going to showrooms and seeing the designs firsthand can also be extremely helpful in helping you make your decision. Being able to shop firsthand, as with many things, can give you a better sense of size, style and shape. You will also be able to see different materials for countertops, sinks, cupboards…etc.


Experience

Last but certainly not least is experience. This is a priceless asset that hiring a design company can give you. The right team with the right experience can totally transform your kitchen or bathroom, giving you the best advice on fixtures, plumbing, light and maximising the space you have.


Experience means that your design company is dependable, and they have the relevant knowledge and expertise to get you through any problems you run into, and keep the project operating to a high standard.

 

Finding The Right Company For Me

Finding the right company to help you redesign your bathroom or kitchen could pose a challenge, but there are a few tips and tricks that can help you track down the right specialists for your home.


●    Do Your Research - It won’t hurt you to do your research, as you want to find the right company that can help you. There will be lots of design companies out there, so checking out websites, reviews and portfolios of different companies can help you narrow down which ones appeal to you most. You may spot a certain style or kind of design that you are extremely interested in, or find a company with excellent reviews. Researching a range of companies will also help you gauge price ranges, and some companies will offer you a free quote so don’t hesitate to get in touch.


●    Word Of Mouth - If you know any friends or family that have had a refurbishment done recently, you may consider asking them for recommendations. Getting a personal recommendation works well for some people, as they feel as though the company they are choosing is reliable and offers good customer satisfaction.


●    Social Media - Check out the social media profiles of some companies. If you want to check out more of their work, checking out social media can help you get a better sense of the company, and is a little different than a website, so you may be able to get more information from their social media profile.
