Kitchen FAQ — Our Most Asked Questions
If you are planning a new kitchen in Ashburton or anywhere in South Devon, it’s normal to have lots of questions. At Doug Farleigh Kitchens, we’ve put together answers to the most common questions we get from our customers.
1. How long does a kitchen project take?
Most kitchens take 8–12 weeks from initial design to completion. Timelines can vary depending on the complexity of the design and our availability. This allows enough time for careful planning, sourcing materials, and a flawless installation.
2. Do I need to book a visit to your showroom?
You’re welcome to visit our showroom in Ashburton anytime, Monday–Friday, 9–5, to see our kitchen displays and chat with our team.
If you’d like a design consultation, we recommend booking so we can dedicate time to your project and discuss your ideas properly.
3. What is the cost of the design consultation and design service?
Our design consultation and full design service are free of charge. You can explore ideas, layouts, and quotes without any commitment.
4. Can you work with small kitchens?
Absolutely! We love designing small kitchens and finding clever ways to maximise space. Smart layouts, creative storage, and attention to detail ensure small kitchens are both practical and stylish.
5. What is the average cost of a new kitchen?
Costs depend on the size of the kitchen, furniture range, appliances, and bespoke features. We offer a wide selection of styles and provide clear, tailored quotes once we know your layout and chosen finishes.

We also project-manage all trades, including electricians, plumbers, plasterers, decorators, and flooring specialists, so you can relax while your kitchen comes together.
7. What worktops do you recommend?
We mainly use Quartz and Dekton worktops, both durable, low-maintenance, and ideal for busy kitchens. They come in a wide range of colours and patterns, allowing you to match them perfectly to your kitchen design.
8. What area do you cover?
We mainly cover all of South Devon, including Ashburton and surrounding towns.
However, we are not limited to this area — we’ve completed projects further afield and even abroad.
