Services
At Benchmark Kitchens & Interiors in Oxford we specialise in the design, supply and installation of quality fitted kitchens. Richard was so helpful with coming up different ideas. Nothing was too much when we kept changing the type of worktop. His eye for detail was impeccable with making sure everything lined up.
Based in Kidlington, north Oxford, our purpose-designed Kitchen showroom allows us to demonstrate our range of kitchen styles, accessories and gadgets. Whilst you are welcome to pop in and browse, we advise booking an appointment so we can spend time discussing you requirements (and make sure the Hot Tap is fired up on your arrival!).

Echoing my partner Chrissie Martin's review of the way Benchmark transformed our kitchen. The process went surprisingly smoothly after we had a few headaches visiting other kitchen suppliers/fitters - we were a bit lost with it all at the time. Richard designed and the fellas fitted the kitchen brilliantly. We're really happy with the outcome, take a look... Thanks Benchmark! Thoroughly recommend Benchmark 👌

Positive: Professionalism
We are absolutely delighted with our new kitchen provided by Richard at Benchmark Kitchens. The quality and design exceeded our expectations. Richard was a pleasure to work with and very patient during our decision-making, nothing was too much trouble. The fitter, Paul, was also excellent. Perfect and very highly recommended.

We got 4 quotes for our kitchen refit and were pleasantly surprised that Benchmark were able to give a competitive quote. Glad we went with them due to the extra support with design that you get compared to other companies. We felt we were in safe hands, with the added bonus that Richard was able to source the whole lot-appliances, worktop and units for us and at quite short notice. Great email communication and support on hand to iron out any minor issues during the fit. LOVE the finished result!

I am truly delighted with the new kitchen. It has achieved the desired effect of making the kitchen feel both lighter and bigger.
I am so glad that Richard suggested getting rid of the corner units, and pulling the floor units forward along that wall to provide deeper work surfaces. It all looks lovely and is working well, and it was that creative leap that led to this really effective new layout. And I love having drawers at the lower level all round. So much easier!
Can I also say how pleased I was with the installation team, who executed the work with care and attention to detail, and were

We used Benchmark Kitchens for our new kitchen and cannot recommend them highly enough. We went to several high street names but weren't happy with the generic designs produced. Despite our limited budget, Richard produced an exceptional kitchen for us - combining a couple of bespoke cupboards with off-the shelf items to really make it look beautiful and function perfectly for our needs. Benchmark kitchens were extremely prompt and easy to work with throughout the process and I cannot recommend the highly enough.

We had an old kitchen removed and a new installed by Benchmark Kitchens. It was a very positive experience: Richard and his staff were highly professional, everything was explained to us clearly, and we were given a lot of choice and options affecting the look and price. The installation went smoothly and without problems. We have a beautiful kitchen as a result.
