For the best new Kitchen design see Tom Shaw at Howdens Elm Farm branch.

From the point we were visited by Tom Shaw of the Howdens Bedford branch, he listened to our requirements and guided us with ideas and suggestions. Following the visit he provided us with 3D graphics that was so life like it was our kitchen with new units - fantastic. Tom is a professional who displays empathy, clarity and I would recommend him to any prospective buyer.
The Howdens kitchen range is full of variety and quality. The Raunds display showroom is a must see.

Excellent service

I have used Howdens Elms Farm for many years as both a trade customer and for personal projects, on this occasion it was my own kitchen after an extension.
Tom Shaw has seen through the plans from start to finish and seen and spoken with us several times making various changes, without complaint! Always happy to help, make suggestions and keep the cost down. Thank you also to Helen for helping to finalise our order, we are really happy with the service we always receive from Howdens and would never hesitate to recommend them to both customers and family and friends.

My new Howdens kitchen is amazing

My new Howdens kitchen is amazing - I love it - reed green Chilcomb. Absolutely delighted.

I want to say special thanks to Tom Shaw. We wanted to keep our existing black granite worktop, and he did a fantastic job designing the units to fit in with this request, which wasn't at all straightforward. He was super-helpful, proactive and really imaginative, with great ideas. Loads more space than I was expecting and it looks wonderful.

Howdens is a great builders merchants

I can always usually find what I need at Howdens. John at the Elms farm branch finds what I need very quickly. I use Howdens more than any other builders merchants due to the ease of being in and out so I can get to my jobs.

Fantastic team, Mo, Sofia and Mike did an excellent job to push my order through as soon as possible. Only 7 days passed between the survey and the delivery of my customer’s kitchen. She was super impressed, as well as I was.
