New kitchen, bedroom and bathroom retailer opens in Chorley

Oct. 27, 2010 - PRLog -- Guy Bullock, of The Design Studio Chorley, said: “Many people think that independent kitchen retailers are more expensive than the national DIY brands, but the costs are comparable and the service aspect exceeds any large chain, due to the personal touch. Independent retailers such as us can also offer a much wider range of kitchens to cater for people's tastes and those wanting something a little bit different.

“Here at The Design Studio Chorley, we can also offer a more comprehensive service than the national DIY stores because we organise all aspects of the installation of the kitchen, bedroom or bathroom from start to finish. Working closely with an architect, we can organise builders, tilers, plasterers, interior designers and even carpet fitters in order to provide a ‘complete room solution’.

“The national DIY stores just give out business cards of tradesmen for the customer to call and organise the work themselves. We even provide free home visits in the evenings and weekends to suit the customer.”

He added: “We also have a much faster turn-around time than the national DIY stores. We can usually supply a standard kitchen or bathroom from within a week and have it fitted within 3 weeks unlike the national DIY stores that make customers wait at least six weeks. Even our totally bespoke range of bedroom furniture can be supplied and fitted within 4 weeks.”

“As a family-run business, we don't employ high pressure sales people either.”


Guy, 35, has spent the last 15 years in the kitchen and bedroom sector including roles in manufacturing, design and retailing.

He has also put together a solid team of trades people with over 150 years’ combined  experience to ensure installation work is carried out to the highest standard.

“For many households, the kitchen is the focal point of the home and having a nice new kitchen makes people feel proud of their homes,” says Guy.

He adds: “With a state-of-the-art software package which allows a virtual walk through on a wide- screen TV, customers get the real essence of the new design.”

The company also specialises in designing and installing quality bedroom and bathroom furniture for any space. The range includes bedrooms with sliding doors and clever storage solutions, and back-to- wall bathroom furniture.

So far, customers of The Design Studio Chorley have come for their fitted kitchens, bedrooms and bathroom furniture, from Chorley, Leyland, Preston, Wigan and Bolton.
