A significant structural renovation of our downstairs — removing internal walls to create a large open-plan living space, a new downstairs WC, new flooring throughout, a brand-new kitchen and patio doors. The quality of workmanship has been outstanding and the project was completed within the agreed timescales. Any minor snags were dealt with promptly, often almost immediately.
We started 2025 with a 2-storey chimney being taken out. The lads did such a good job we gave them the rest of our renovation — two small extensions, a new downstairs toilet and kitchen, upstairs bathroom, a bedroom move and renovation, finishing with a full back garden renovation. We've had many comments on how good the work looks, especially the brickwork.
We've recently had a knock-through between the lounge and dining room along with other internal and brick work. We're extremely pleased with the quality — everything finished to a high standard, the team were professional, tidy and clearly took pride in what they were doing. Communication with Craig was great throughout and they stuck to the agreed timeline.
After getting a few quotes for our kitchen, we chose Cheshire Design & Build NW and I'm glad we did. They turned up when they said they would, kept us updated, and got on with the job without any fuss. The finished kitchen looks fantastic. Reliable, respectful, and they clearly take pride in their work.
Excellent. Craig replied immediately and viewed the job. A detailed price and timeline was sent. Once the job was underway problems occurred — not Craig's fault — new plans were made and the job was done. Communication was 100%, that's important for me, and a cleaner is sent in at the end of the work. A great job done. Would definitely recommend.
Brilliant company, amazing team. Came to fit a lintel for me and brick up the outside of the house. The job was finished quickly and efficiently — very friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you so much, highly recommend.
This company has been the best to work with in terms of professionalism and quality — not like other companies I have worked with in the past. 10/10 service 👍
Highly recommend! Craig was very reliable and the quality of workmanship was outstanding! Thank you!
Great lads, very polite, showed up on time and did a great job.

Layout is the decision everything else hangs on
The most expensive renovation mistakes are layout mistakes — a kitchen island in the wrong place, a door that kills a wall, an open-plan space that doesn't flow. Space planning resolves all of that on paper first: how the rooms relate, where the light falls, how people move through the space, and where the structure and services need to land.
Get the plan right and the finishes look after themselves. Get it wrong and no amount of expensive tiling fixes it.
Space planning services across the North West
We provide space planning across the North West — Cheshire, Warrington and Greater Manchester — as a standalone service or as the first stage of a full design-to-build project. Because we build what we plan, the layout we hand you is a buildable one: we already know where the steels have to go, what the structure will take and what the services will cost to move.
What we plan
- Open-plan layouts — kitchen-diners and living spaces that actually flow.
- Zoning & circulation — how rooms relate and how people move between them.
- Natural light — glazing, rooflights and orientation planned into the layout.
- Structure & services — where steels, walls and services need to go to make it work.
Part of our interior design service — feeds straight into kitchen renovations and extensions.

Space Planning FAQs
Is space planning different from interior design?
It's the first part of it — resolving the layout, flow and light before any finishes are chosen. Some clients commission space planning on its own, ahead of an extension or remodel.
Can you space-plan around a structural change?
Yes — that's exactly where it earns its keep. We plan the layout and identify the structural openings and steels needed to achieve it, coordinated with our structural design.
Do I need it for a single room?
It's most valuable for open-plan spaces, extensions and whole-house remodels where the layout is complex. For a single straightforward room it may be folded into the wider design.
