A Complete New Look for Your Kitchen
A kitchen makeover in Masham changes the whole look of the room while keeping your units, layout, sink and appliances, from £1,500 and in 3 to 5 working days, with a 5-year written guarantee. We respray the doors, drawer fronts, frames and end panels, then add the parts you choose: spray granite over tired worktops, sprayed tiles and splashback, new handles fitted while the doors are off, an island or dresser in a contrast colour, and the walls, ceiling and woodwork decorated to finish the room, each part priced as its own line on one fixed quote.
46% of homes around Masham centre are detached, about 840 households, so larger kitchens with islands are common and a two-tone scheme with a contrasting island is often where the plan starts. The figures here cover 1,820 households in the 3 neighbourhoods nearest the centre.

What a Makeover Changes, and What Stays
| Part of the kitchen | What we do | Time and price |
|---|---|---|
| Doors, drawers, frames, end panels | Primer, then two HVLP topcoats | The core; from £1,500 |
| Plinths, cornices and pelmets | Sprayed in the new colour | Where the kitchen has them |
| Worktops | Spray granite over existing tops | One day, then 24-hour cure |
| Tiles and splashback | Sprayed to suit the scheme | Priced after the survey |
| Handles and hardware | Swapped while doors are off | Priced after the survey |
| Walls, ceiling and woodwork | Decorated last (interior spraying in Masham) | Priced after the survey |
| Islands, dressers, tables, chairs | Sprayed to match or contrast | Priced after the survey |
| Carcasses, layout, sink, appliances | Stay where they are | No strip-out or plumbing |
In Masham, where 44% of properties predate 1919 against 11% built since 2000, plinths, cornices and scribed end panels matter more than usual, because they hide uneven floors and walls and give the game away if left in the old colour.
Worktops are done with our spray granite finish in Masham, which goes over laminate, tile, MDF and solid tops in place, whereas new granite or quartz has to be templated, cut and fitted, and the old top taken out, which usually means making good the walls and tiles around it as well; the coating avoids all of that, and like every extra it is priced as its own line on your quote.
Planning the Colour Scheme
Two-tone and island contrast
With 46% of homes detached, about 840 households, more kitchens here than in most towns have room for an island or peninsula, and spraying it in a contrast colour, with darker base units under lighter wall units elsewhere, gives the room a focal point.
Worktops, handles and splashback as one scheme
48% of properties here, about 970, were built before 1940, and the worktops in older houses are usually a later laminate or tiled top, both of which take spray granite well; we bring physical samples of the door colour, the stone-effect finishes and handle options so you can see them together in your own light. Because 48% of Masham properties predate 1940, cup handles and knobs often suit the room better than long bars, and changing them while the doors are off lets us fill the old holes before spraying.
Finish and colour range
Satin is the most requested topcoat because it wipes clean and suits traditional and modern kitchens alike, matt is striking on deep greens and dark greys, and gloss suits handleless designs; we can match any of more than 175,000 colours across RAL, Farrow and Ball, Little Greene and Dulux Trade, or a sample you bring, using spectrophotometer matching. With 44% of Masham properties built before 1919, about 890, many kitchens sit in rooms with original proportions, where a matt or satin finish in a deep green, blue or warm off-white tends to sit more comfortably than high gloss.
How the Work Is Sequenced
- Survey, sprayed samples, fixed quote
- Room masked, doors to workshop
- Frames, panels and tiles sprayed
- Spray granite worktops, 24-hour cure
- Walls, ceiling, woodwork decorated last
- Doors refitted with new handles
- Walk-through and written guarantee
At 35 miles, about 57 minutes by road from Leeds, we plan a Masham makeover as one unbroken run of days, confirmed in writing, with the worktop coating timed so most of its 24-hour cure falls overnight.
Living at home during the makeover
There is no strip-out, so you avoid the weeks without a kitchen that a refit involves; the doors and drawer fronts usually go to our Sheepscar workshop for spraying, leaving the cupboards open for a few days, so it helps to empty them and clear the worktops before we start, and the one real pause is the 24 hours the worktops need after coating. Decorating comes last so nothing new gets marked, and the exact order depends on what you include.

When the homes were built
What the age of Masham homes means for a makeover
44% of the 2,010 properties around Masham centre counted by the VOA were built before 1919, well above the 21% average across the towns we cover. Kitchens in the 890 or so houses that old are rarely original: they tend to sit in a rear extension, a former scullery or a knocked-through back room, with walls and floors that are seldom square, so units already scribed to the room are worth keeping and recolouring. The next largest group, 22% or about 450 properties, dates from 1973 to 1999, the era when wrapped doors were most common. Only 11% of properties here, about 230, are post-2000, so few kitchens are untouched developer originals.
Room size, islands and scope in Masham
Detached houses make up 46% of homes, about 840 households, well above the 20% average across the towns we cover. Those 840 or so larger houses usually mean larger kitchens, often with an island or a kitchen-diner, so there are more fronts to spray and the price tends to sit towards the top of the £1,800 to £3,500 range, or above it once worktops and handles are added. The 33% of homes that are semis, about 590, mostly have mid-sized L or U-shaped kitchens that fall within that range.
Who lives here, and what that changes
68% of homes are owner-occupied, about 1,240 households, close to the 63% average across the towns we cover; owners planning to stay tend to treat a makeover as a long-term choice, and the 5-year written guarantee covers peeling, flaking and adhesion failure caused by our workmanship.
What we check first in a Masham kitchen
- Pre-1919 properties: 44% (about 890), the 21st highest share of the 203 towns we cover; we look at how the units meet uneven floors and walls, which is where plinths and scribed panels do the hiding.
- Privately rented homes: 22% (about 400), the 25th highest share of the 203 towns we cover; landlords can fit the 3 to 5 days between tenancies.
- Detached houses: 46% (about 840), the 32nd highest share of the 203 towns we cover; the most likely to have an island to take a contrast colour.
- 1973 to 1999 properties: 22% (about 450), the 81st highest share of the 203 towns we cover; we check each door for lifting vinyl wrap before pricing.
