Kitchen Repairs in Windsor
Windsor combines Georgian and Victorian townhouses in the historic centre with larger inter-war semis and detached homes in residential areas such as Dedworth and Clewer Green. The proximity to the Great Park attracts affluent buyers to premium detached properties, while New Windsor has more compact terraced streets with good potential for kitchen refurbishment.
Windsor's conservation area and period housing stock call for particular care at survey stage — especially in the historic town centre.
Windsor's Georgian and Victorian town-centre properties often have kitchens in basement or semi-basement positions, which requires careful assessment of natural light, ventilation, and drainage routing before the kitchen plan is finalised. Properties within the Windsor Conservation Area may have restrictions on structural alterations, and our surveyors flag any such considerations during the pre-installation visit.
If pelmet lighting has been planned, we can also fit LED strip lighting behind the pelmet at the same visit, using the pelmet as a light diffuser for an integrated look.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes — cornice and pelmet are almost always added after the main kitchen installation rather than during it, and fitting them to an existing kitchen is a straightforward job. We will match the profile to your kitchen's existing moulding range or source a close equivalent if the original is discontinued.
Internal and external corners are cut at 45 degree mitre angles using a mitre saw, then glued and pinned in place. Getting the mitre angles right is the key to a seamless result — poorly cut mitres leave visible gaps or overhangs that spoil the finish. We always test fit pieces before final fixing to ensure a perfect joint.
We will attempt to source the original cornice profile from the manufacturer. For older or discontinued ranges, specialist kitchen trim suppliers often hold compatible profiles in similar styles. If an exact match is not available we will show you alternatives before ordering — a close match in the same sheen level and colour will look seamless in most cases.
Cornice is the decorative moulding fixed to the top of wall units, hiding the gap between the cabinet top and the ceiling. Pelmet is the equivalent moulding fixed to the underside of wall units, creating a tidy edge and often concealing under-cabinet lighting. Both serve the same purpose of finishing the cabinet run and are usually fitted in the same material and profile.
