What we do
Designed by Sam, fitted by his team.
From the first design to the last handle, Coeur handles the whole kitchen under one roof — bespoke cabinetry, worktops, installation and project management for homes across Godalming, Guildford and the Surrey Hills.
01
Kitchen Design
Every Coeur kitchen starts on Sam's drawing board. Drawing on more than two decades of designing kitchens, he takes your space, your ideas and the way you actually live, and turns them into a plan that works — not just one that looks good in a brochure. You get a proper design and a fully itemised quote up front, so you can see exactly what you're getting and what it costs before anything is ordered. As one client put it, Sam designed their kitchen based on their vision and his own ideas — and it was a competitive quote against the big chains.
02
Bespoke Cabinetry & Storage
The cabinets are the bones of a kitchen, and we tailor them to your room rather than forcing your room to fit a standard carcass. Shaker, in-frame, flat-slab handleless — painted, timber or a mix — with the storage worked out around how you cook: deep pan drawers, larder units, corner solutions that actually reach the back, and the awkward gaps turned into something useful. It's the range of options that clients mention, alongside how much thought goes into making them work day to day.
03
Worktops — Quartz, Granite & Timber
Worktops make or break a kitchen, both to look at and to live with. We'll talk you through quartz, granite, solid timber and laminate — what each is like to cook on, clean and live with — and help you choose the one that suits your kitchen and budget. They're templated and fitted by the worktop specialists Sam has worked alongside for years, coordinated into the fit so there's no gap between trades. One review singled the worktop team out as excellent — that's not an accident.
04
Installation & Fitting
Design is only half the job; the fit is where it's won or lost. Your kitchen is installed by Sam's own skilled, professional team — not a rotating crew of subcontractors — and project-managed from first day to sign-off. Cabinetry, worktops, electrics and plumbing are sequenced so the trades don't trip over each other and the job runs to the dates you were given at the start. Clients mention it repeatedly: installed on time, no delays, polite and respectful, and everything cleared away at the end.
05
Full Project Management
A new kitchen touches electrics, plumbing, plastering, tiling and worktops, and the usual nightmare is being left to coordinate strangers yourself. With Coeur, Sam project-manages the lot: detailed plans and costings up front, every trade booked in the right order, and one person accountable for the result. When issues come up — as they do on any real project — they're handled creatively and efficiently rather than landed on you. It's the reason clients describe the whole thing as speedy and easy.
06
Kitchen Extensions & Open-Plan
If you're extending or knocking through, the kitchen design should lead the room, not be squeezed in afterwards. Sam designs kitchens for open-plan and extended spaces — planning the island, the flow between cooking, eating and sitting, and where the light and services need to be — so the finished room works as one. We'll work alongside your builder, or point you toward the right trades if you're still planning, and design to suit both the space and how the family will use it.
