Bowdon, Cheshire
Handmade kitchens for Bowdon homes, designed to suit period architecture and built in our own workshop.
Family-made since 1973 · Our own workshop and installers · Our Altrincham showroom is around 10 minutes away
Bowdon’s large Victorian villas were built with high ceilings, deep cornicing and tall sash windows, and much of the area sits within a conservation area. A kitchen in a house like this needs to feel settled into the architecture rather than dropped into it.
We design cabinetry in proportion with the room, often running it to the ceiling or framing original features, and we scribe every piece on site so it sits neatly against walls that are rarely straight.
“We recently had our kitchen designed and fitted by Andrew Ryan, and the whole experience has been outstanding from start to finish. From the very first design consultation, Mike and Selena really listened to what we wanted, offering thoughtful suggestions and expert guidance. Throughout the entire process, communication was excellent, and nothing ever felt too much trouble. Every detail was carefully considered, and the workmanship is second to none. Florin, the fitter, was professional, tidy, and a pleasure to have in our home, and the end result is a kitchen that not only looks stunning but works perfectly for our family.”
“Andrew Ryan is simply an incredible company to work with. Very rarely does reality outstrip renders – but with our kitchen/dining room project the already incredible design renders were outstripped by the install. Everything was faultless and perfect. Michael and Noel were fantastic. My builder (UK Master Craftsman of the year twice!) stated it was the best produced and finished kitchen he’d ever seen in his working life. If you have the chance to work with Andrew Ryan then don’t hesitate – they are a different class.”
“I visited several bespoke kitchen designers before choosing Andrew Ryan. Noel really understood the style I was trying to achieve and as we have 4m height ceilings this was the only company that could accommodate and be truly bespoke in the design. From start to finish Noel, Michael and the team worked with us and were easy to communicate and work with. I am truly delighted with the quality and the result. Friends are amazed at what has been achieved and the kitchen is a pleasure to work and entertain in. I would highly recommend this company.”
“The team at Andrew Ryan are fantastic. We had nothing but a positive experience across the initial discussions, design and installation process. They are friendly, professional and truly ensure that their customers are well looked after before, during and after their work is undertaken. Noel and Michael ensure that every detail is taken care of – we really enjoyed our time dealing with them! We had a kitchen and utility room installation and the quality of the product is exceptional. I would highly recommend Andrew Ryan.”

Every kitchen is priced to its design, materials and appliances, but our kitchen cabinetry typically starts from £40,000. After your first consultation we give you clear guidance, so the design and the budget develop together.
Yes. A new kitchen is usually an internal change, but if your home is listed or you are altering windows, walls or the exterior, your architect or the council will confirm what consent is needed. We are happy to work alongside them and to design around original features.
The design stage depends on your project: often one to two months, and longer for new builds where we work from architect’s drawings. Once the design is signed off, it is typically 12–14 weeks until delivery, with our team coordinating stone templating and fitting.
