“Making the decision to have a new kitchen is a big one, and can be the single biggest expense in your home. Having done some research we came across The Essex Kitchen Design Company and as soon as we had our first meeting with Alex, we knew we were in safe hands! You are not dealing with a sales person, you are dealing with someone who is involved in every aspect of the design and really knows his stuff! His attention to detail really gave me confidence that we were not going to be disappointed and that nothing was going to be overlooked. He walked us through every single aspect of the kitchen and the outcome is both beautiful and practical – perfect! Every time I look at the kitchen or use the kitchen I absolutely love it! Thank you Alex!”
