Clonmel Kitchen Range - Free Quote Nottingham & Wakefield

0115-824-4201
The Clonmel is one of our traditional shaker-style kitchen ranges, built for people who want solid, hand-finished cabinetry rather than a flat-pack look that dates quickly. It's proved a popular choice with customers across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire, and we're increasingly fitting it further out towards Wakefield too, largely because the painted frame-and-panel doors sit as well in a Victorian terrace as they do in a newer family home that's after a country-kitchen feel. If you've already looked at our Jefferson range and want something with a softer, more traditional profile, Clonmel is usually the next one we'd point you towards. You can see how it sits alongside the rest of our kitchen ranges before you book a free, no-obligation quote.

From First Measure to Painted Doors
- Survey, doors and colour sample: We come out to measure the room and check whether the walls and floor are genuinely square - it matters more with a frame-and-panel door like Clonmel than a flat slab front, because panel gaps show up any lean in a run of units. We'll usually bring an actual door sample and current paint swatches rather than just photos, and check your existing pipework and wiring while we're there.
- CAD design and written quote: You get a photo-realistic CAD layout showing the Clonmel doors, your chosen paint colour and worktop together, plus a fully itemised written quote covering cabinetry, fitting, trades and waste removal - no vague allowances to be filled in later.
- Strip-out and first-fix trades: The old kitchen comes out under our registered waste carrier licence, then Part P approved electricians, Gas Safe registered engineers and our plumbers get pipework and cabling into position before any units arrive, since it's far easier to move a socket or a stop-tap before the carcasses are fixed to the wall.
- Carcass fit and worktop templating: Carcasses go in first and get levelled and packed out where an older floor has settled unevenly, then our stonemasons laser-template the worktop on site once the units are fixed in place - a template taken any earlier rarely lines up once the stone's been cut and jointed.
- Door fitting and plastering: Plastering and making good happens before the painted Clonmel doors go on, and the doors themselves are hung towards the end of the job rather than early on - a painted timber finish marks more easily than a laminate front, so we keep it clear of dust and other trades until there's nothing left to knock it.
- Snagging walk-through and sign-off: We walk the finished kitchen with you, deal with any snagging on the spot, and hand over your written installation warranty.
Budgeting for a Painted Shaker Kitchen
A painted, frame-and-panel door like Clonmel's costs more to produce than a flat foil front, because the timber has to be spray-finished rather than wrapped, and cutting and jointing a panelled door takes longer at the bench than a single slab. That's the main reason a Clonmel kitchen tends to land toward the middle or upper end of our pricing, which starts from around £5,000 across the range as a whole. Beyond the door style itself, what you actually pay comes down to the size of the room, how many units you need, your worktop material, whether plumbing or electrics have to move, and how much of the old kitchen has to come out first. We won't put a number on any of that until someone's stood in your kitchen and measured it - the home visit and the full written quotation that follows
are both free, with no obligation to book. If you'd rather spread the cost, we also work with an FCA-regulated finance partner, subject to status.
How Clonmel Fits Alongside Our Other Ranges
| Range | Look and feel | Where it fits best |
|---|---|---|
| Clonmel | Painted timber shaker, frame-and-panel doors, country warmth | Period homes and farmhouse-style family kitchens |
| Jefferson | Shaker doors with a cleaner, less rustic profile | Traditional kitchens that still need to feel current |
| Handleless/contemporary ranges (Strada, Zola and similar) | Flat slab fronts, integrated or push-to-open handles | Modern apartments, open-plan and smaller galley kitchens |
What Makes or Breaks a Painted Shaker Door
A frame-and-panel door like Clonmel's is built and finished differently to a flat foil front, and that difference shows up years later if it's built badly - panels that aren't properly jointed can start to show hairline gaps as the timber moves with the seasons, and a rushed spray finish shows brush marks or an uneven sheen under kitchen lighting within a year or two. Our cabinet makers are City & Guilds trained specifically in this kind of joinery rather than flat-pack assembly, and the plastering that goes on before the doors are hung - making good around units in a room that's rarely square in an older property - is handled by tradespeople carrying four decades of combined site experience between them, not a general labourer brought in to save time. Everything is agreed in a written quote before any tools
come out, so there's no verbal allowance to argue over halfway through the job, and every project ends with a formal sign-off rather than a fitter simply packing up and leaving. We're members of the Construction Industry Training Board and the Federation of Small Businesses, and NVQ Level 2 and City & Guilds qualified plumbers, Part P approved electricians and Gas Safe registered engineers handle anything on the job that needs connecting or certifying.
From Wollaton to the Derbyshire Border
Most of our Clonmel fits go into Nottingham and the towns immediately around it - West Bridgford, Wollaton, Beeston, Arnold and Sneinton - where a good share of the housing is old enough that a painted shaker door suits the property better than a high-gloss modern front. The styling sits particularly well in the classic terraces and villas near Wollaton Hall, and in older properties closer to Nottingham Castle and the sandstone caves, where floors have often settled unevenly over a century or more and units need packing out and levelling rather than fixed flat to the wall - something our fitters deal with regularly rather than treating as a surprise on the day. Over more than 20 years and 800-plus kitchens fitted across the region, a fair number have been exactly this combination: an older Nottingham property and a solid, painted door. Further
out we cover Nottinghamshire towns including Mansfield, Kirkby-in-Ashfield and Stapleford, and into Derbyshire for Derby, Long Eaton, Alfreton and Heanor - broadly a 15-20 mile radius from our workshop, stretching towards Chesterfield and the Derbyshire border. We also take on Clonmel installations further afield, including Wakefield, Sheffield and York; for those jobs the free home visit and any follow-up trade appointments have to be scheduled around the longer round trip, so lead times can run a little later than for work closer to Nottingham.

Frequently Asked Questions
What style is the Clonmel kitchen range?
Clonmel is one of our traditional shaker ranges - a painted timber, frame-and-panel door rather than a flat foil or laminate front. It sits towards the country and farmhouse end of what we offer rather than the sleek, handleless styles, and it's usually chosen by people who want a kitchen that looks like it belongs in an older property, or who simply prefer the warmth of a solid painted door over a high-gloss finish.
Is the Clonmel range suitable for a traditional or country-style kitchen?
Yes - it's one of the ranges we'd suggest first for that look. The frame-and-panel door, painted finish and the way it pairs with natural worktop materials all lean towards a country or farmhouse feel, and we fit it regularly in Victorian and Edwardian terraces around Nottingham where that styling suits the property.
How much does a Clonmel kitchen cost fitted?
Kitchens across our range start from around £5,000, and because Clonmel uses solid timber doors with a spray-painted finish rather than foil-wrapped MDF, it usually costs a bit more than our simplest ranges once fitting is included. The real number depends on room size, unit count, worktop choice and whether plumbing or electrics need moving, which is why we won't quote a fixed price until someone's actually seen the space. The home visit and written quote that follow are both free, with no obligation to go ahead.
What colour options are available in the Clonmel range?
Because the Clonmel door is a painted timber finish, the colour choice is broader than you'd get with a foil range - you're not limited to a handful of pre-set laminate colours. Current swatches change from time to time, so rather than list colours here that might be out of date, we'll bring the current options with us on the free home visit, or you can see samples in person by appointment.
How do I arrange a free quote for a Clonmel kitchen?
Call us or fill in the enquiry form and we'll book a home visit for a time that suits you. Someone comes out, measures the room, checks your existing pipework and wiring, and talks through the Clonmel doors and layout options. You get a full written quote afterwards, itemised, with no pressure or obligation to book.
How long does installation of the Clonmel range take?
Most single-kitchen installations run somewhere between one and two weeks once the old kitchen comes out, depending on room size and how much plumbing, electrical or plastering work is needed alongside the cabinetry. A straightforward galley kitchen with no structural changes fits faster than a larger open-plan room, or one where a sink or gas point is moving. We'll give you a realistic timeframe as part of the written quote, not a rough guess.
Does the Clonmel range work well in smaller kitchens?
It can, though a frame-and-panel shaker door does take up slightly more visual and physical depth than a flat slab front, so in a genuinely tight galley kitchen we'll sometimes suggest a lighter paint colour or a simpler handle to keep the room feeling open. It isn't a reason to rule Clonmel out - plenty of smaller terraced kitchens around Nottingham have it fitted successfully - but it's easier to judge properly once we've seen the room and can show you a CAD layout rather than guessing from a description.
What worktops are commonly paired with the Clonmel range?
Because Clonmel has a traditional look, it's often paired with natural stone such as granite or a high-character marble, or a quartz worktop that mimics stone without the same maintenance. Solid wood worktops also suit it well if you want the full farmhouse effect. All our stone and quartz worktops are laser-templated and cut in-house before being jointed and fitted by our stonemasons, so the joins are precise whichever material you choose.
Does the Clonmel range come with an in-frame or lay-on door option?
This depends on the specific cabinet configuration and finish you choose, so rather than give a blanket answer that might not hold for your layout, we'll talk through the in-frame and lay-on options and what each means for cost and cleaning during the home visit. In-frame doors sit within a visible cabinet frame and tend to look more authentically traditional, while lay-on doors cover the frame edge and are usually a little easier to keep clean.
If I like the Clonmel doors but want a different carcass colour, is that something you can do?
Yes - the door front and the carcass colour are separate choices, so you can have the Clonmel door in your chosen paint colour with a carcass that suits your walls, flooring or handles rather than being locked into a single matched set. We'll show you the combination on the CAD plan before you commit, which is more useful than trying to picture it from paint swatches alone.
