Working in Falmouth

Falmouth homes work hard: salt air, steep ground and rooms with a view to protect

Falmouth is a twenty-minute run from the studio at Shortlanesend, down the A39 past Penryn. It is one of the parts of Cornwall where a kitchen is most often the room with the view - over the harbour, Carrick Roads or the docks - and that single fact reorders the whole design. Storage, extraction and appliances have to go somewhere that is not the window wall.

The building stock runs from Georgian and Victorian town houses stepping up the hill behind the high street, to Edwardian villas around Melvill Road and Cliff Road, to modern waterside houses and apartments. There is also a substantial second-home and holiday-let market, which brings a different brief: durable, low-maintenance specification that still reads as considered.

Salt-laden air is the constant. It attacks ironmongery, hinges, appliance fascias and paint edges far faster than inland conditions, and it does it whether the property is on the front or three streets back. We specify for it rather than pretending the exposure is not there.

Why Studio Seven

What we can actually claim about working in Falmouth

Verifiable facts only. If we cannot evidence a number, we do not print it.

A Cornwall studio, not a national franchise

We work from Cornelly House, School Hill, Shortlanesend, just outside Truro. Falmouth is served by the same studio and the same people who draw the room.

15 years in the KBB sector

Our founder holds a degree in interior architecture and has 15 years in kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms. The studio works with homeowners and developers on bespoke projects.

KBSA membership

Membership of the Kitchen Bathroom Bedroom Specialists Association gives you an independent standard to hold us to, and a route of recourse if something is not right.

Two-year workmanship guarantee

Installation carries a two-year workmanship guarantee backed through KBSA membership, on top of the manufacturer warranties on Schüller, Novelle and Omega cabinetry.

£5,000,000 public liability insurance

The cover level developers, architects and main contractors normally require before trades are allowed on site, in place for private houses too.

Full 3D visualisation before you commit

Every room is drawn in Winner 3D from your own eye height, so the layout, the finishes and the lighting are agreed on screen rather than discovered on site.

What Falmouth throws at a build

The problems Falmouth homes cause, and how the design answers them

Every location has a predictable set of failures worth designing out before a single unit is ordered. These are the ones we plan around here.

The view wall: where everything cannot go

In a Falmouth house the best wall is usually glazed. That removes the obvious home for tall units, extraction and full-height appliances, and it means a standard layout imported from a showroom plan will either block the view or leave the room short of storage.

We resolve it by concentrating volume elsewhere: islands with deep drawers, a dedicated pantry run on the internal wall, appliance housings grouped rather than scattered, and by testing the sight line in Winner 3D from where people actually stand and sit.

  • Sight lines from seating and standing positions tested in 3D
  • Storage volume moved to islands and internal pantry runs
  • Extraction routed against the real structure, not assumed
  • Worktop and cabinet heights set so nothing crosses the view

Salt air: corrosion, swelling and finish failure

Coastal exposure shows up first in the small things: pitted handles, stiff hinges, corroded appliance trims, paint lifting at door edges near the sink. In a badly ventilated bathroom it goes further, into swollen board and mould behind units.

The answer is specification, not maintenance. Moisture-resistant substrates in wet zones, ironmongery suited to coastal conditions, finishes chosen for the exposure, and extraction sized to the room volume and duct length rather than fitted for convenience.

  • Ironmongery and fixings appropriate to coastal exposure
  • Moisture-resistant boards and sealed edging in splash zones
  • Extraction ducted to outside, sized to volume and duct run
  • Finishes selected for salt and humidity, not just for colour

Steep ground, tight streets and staged delivery

Much of Falmouth is built on a hill, with narrow terraced streets, limited parking and properties reached by steps or a shared passage. Large flat-packed cabinetry and stone worktops have to be planned into that reality.

We check access at survey, agree unloading and carry routes, and stage deliveries so nothing sits outside in weather. Where a stone worktop cannot be carried in one piece, the joint position is designed rather than discovered.

Our process

The same five steps for every Falmouth project

The sequence does not change with the postcode. It is what keeps a project predictable.

  1. Design consultation

    How the household uses the space, the state of the building, your budget position and timescale, and an honest answer on whether the project suits us.

  2. Survey and measured drawings

    Measured as built, with structure, services, floor levels and any heritage constraints recorded. In period and converted property this stage decides everything that follows.

  3. Winner 3D design and specification

    You see the room in three dimensions from your own eye height, with cabinetry, finishes, lighting and appliances specified: and you change it on screen, not on site.

  4. Ordering and programme

    Schüller, Novelle or Omega cabinetry ordered against a dated programme, with trades and deliveries booked around access, other contractors and the building’s own sequence.

  5. Installation and handover

    One studio installs and stays responsible, with weekly updates. Handover includes the snagging walk-through, the two-year workmanship guarantee and manufacturer warranties.

Falmouth questions

Answers for Falmouth clients

Do you design kitchens in Falmouth?

Yes. Falmouth is roughly twenty minutes from our studio at Shortlanesend near Truro, and we work across the town, Penryn, Mylor, Flushing and the Helford approach.

How do you specify a kitchen for a coastal Falmouth property?

By treating salt air as a design input: moisture-resistant substrates in wet zones, ironmongery suited to coastal exposure, sealed edges, and extraction ducted outside and sized to the room rather than fitted for convenience.

Can you design around a harbour view?

Yes, it is the usual Falmouth brief. Storage volume moves to islands and internal pantry runs, and the sight lines are tested in Winner 3D from seated and standing positions before anything is specified.

Do you work on holiday lets and second homes in Falmouth?

Yes. Let and second-home projects usually call for a more durable specification and a programme built around changeover dates, both of which we plan for. Our project management service suits owners who are not local.

What does a kitchen cost in Falmouth?

Kitchen projects start at £12,000. Beyond that the figure follows the room size, the cabinetry range - Schüller, Novelle or Omega - worktop material, appliances and any building work. You are given a specified cost against an approved 3D design.

Are you insured and accredited to work in Falmouth homes?

We hold £5,000,000 public liability insurance and are KBSA members, and our installation work carries a two-year workmanship guarantee backed through that membership.

Can I visit a showroom from Falmouth?

Our Truro showroom is being built and opens in 2027. Until then the design consultation happens at your property and in our studio, so the specification is made against your own light and ceiling heights.

Do you offer an emergency or same-day service?

No. We are a design-led KBB studio rather than a repair service. Work is designed, programmed and installed to agreed dates; if an issue arises with our own installation, the two-year workmanship guarantee covers it.

Can you coordinate with our builder or architect?

Yes. Much of our work sits inside a wider renovation. Our project management service puts a foreman on the ground alongside the other trades and reports back to you weekly by video.

Can you manage a Falmouth project while I am living elsewhere?

Yes. That is what the Complete Service is for: design, installation and project management under one studio, with a foreman on site and weekly video updates so you do not need to travel to make decisions.
