Amazing feedback from our valued clients
Damco were a pleasure to work with on our kitchen renovation. We had full visibility of the project plan an status at all times. Communication was clear and the trades that contributed were all very professional and friendly.
Whenever we had questions they went the extra mile to make sure we felt heard and Damco were prompt to remedy any issues as they came up. Our project was completed on time and on budget and we're very happy - would recommend to anyone.

Every step of the process was seamless. The team not only met but exceeded our expectations, installing a new kitchen, butlers pantry, downstairs bathroom, relocating two bathrooms upstairs, and creating a spacious walk-in wardrobe. Living in the home during the renovation posed no challenges as the tradespeople worked collaboratively with us.

From start to finish, my experience with Damco Kitchen was nothing short of exceptional. Ajay, Steve, Diana and Jan displayed utmost professionalism, ensuring every detail was taken care of, and consistently communicating with me throughout the entire process. My new kitchen isn't just functional; it's a work of art. The craftsmanship, design, and attention to detail are unparalleled. I wholeheartedly recommend Damco Kitchen to anyone looking to transform their kitchen space. Thanks to them, my kitchen is now the heart of my home!

Highly recommend Ajay, Steve, Diana, Jan and the team at Damco.
We had a great experience with these guys. They originally came recommended to us by colleagues and friends.
Ajay was excellent - appointments were always on time, never rushed, his ideas were welcome. He was happy to suggest recommendations based on his experience for finishes and we are thrilled having seen our dream become reality.

What Are Shaker Style Kitchens?
Shaker-style kitchens are defined by their iconic cabinetry. These Shaker cabinets feature a recessed panel design, sometimes referred to as “rail and stile”, that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The look originated with the Shaker religious community in the late 18th century, which prioritised craftsmanship, durability, and simplicity in their designs.
The hallmark of a Shaker kitchen cabinet is its minimalism, with clean profiles and a five-piece construction consisting of two stiles, two rails, and a central panel. Today, this timeless design remains highly sought-after, blending traditional charm with modern innovations.
