Tom Howley Kitchen Painter in Roby Mill is the perfect search term for homeowners looking to transform a luxury kitchen without the huge expense of replacing it. At JS Decor, we recently completed a breathtaking hand-painted Tom Howley kitchen in the beautiful village of Roby Mill, West Lancashire, showcasing how a professionally painted kitchen can completely transform the heart of your home.
Nestled in the picturesque West Lancashire countryside, Roby Mill is home to many stunning properties where quality craftsmanship is truly appreciated. We were delighted to be commissioned to renovate this bespoke Tom Howley kitchen, giving it a sophisticated new look while preserving the exceptional quality of the original cabinetry.
If you’ve already read our dedicated Tom Howley Kitchen Painter guide or our luxury Tom Howley kitchen transformation in Macclesfield, you’ll recognise the same meticulous preparation and specialist techniques that have made JS Decor one of the North West’s leading kitchen painting specialists.
A Beautiful Tom Howley Kitchen Deserved a Fresh New Look
The original kitchen featured a classic cream finish that had served the homeowners well for many years. While the cabinetry remained beautifully crafted, the colour no longer reflected the elegant style of the property.
The clients wanted something richer, warmer and more contemporary while retaining the timeless character that makes Tom Howley kitchens so desirable.
After carefully discussing the options, they selected Farrow & Ball De Nimes, a sophisticated heritage blue that perfectly complements the marble worktops, oak seating and herringbone flooring.
The transformation is simply stunning, creating a luxurious kitchen that looks every bit as impressive as a brand-new installation.
Why Tom Howley Kitchens Need Specialist Painting
A Tom Howley kitchen is a significant investment and deserves specialist care.
Unlike standard kitchen cabinets, bespoke Tom Howley cabinetry features intricate mouldings, precision joinery and beautifully crafted details that can easily be spoiled by inexperienced decorators.
At JS Decor, we specialise exclusively in high-end kitchen painting. Every project follows a proven process developed over more than 30 years, ensuring a flawless finish that enhances rather than hides the craftsmanship.
Preparation Makes All the Difference
The secret to a long-lasting finish is meticulous preparation.
Rather than simply cleaning and painting over the existing surface, every removable component was carefully sanded back to the original factory primer. This creates the ideal foundation for maximum adhesion and exceptional durability.
Every surface was then thoroughly cleaned before specialist adhesion primers were applied.
Taking the time to prepare every component correctly is one of the reasons our painted kitchens continue to look beautiful for many years.
Precision Spray Finishing in Our Workshop
Every cabinet door, drawer front, plinth and removable panel was carefully removed, labelled and transported to our dedicated spray workshop.
Inside our dust-controlled environment, we applied multiple coats of Tikkurila Akvi Top DS 25, one of the finest waterborne coatings available for luxury cabinetry.
Spraying within a controlled environment produces an ultra-smooth factory-quality finish that simply cannot be achieved on site.
Each component was carefully inspected before returning to the property for final installation.
Meticulous Hand Painting On Site
While the doors were being spray finished, work continued inside the property.
The fixed frames, decorative columns, end panels and remaining cabinetry were expertly hand painted using our trusted Corona brushes.
Tikkurila Akvi Top DS 25 offers exceptional self-levelling properties, allowing the finish to settle beautifully as it cures. The result is a smooth, elegant hand-painted finish that blends seamlessly with the sprayed components.
Every brushstroke reflects the care and attention to detail that has become synonymous with JS Decor.
Premium Paints for Lasting Durability
Luxury kitchens deserve premium coatings.
For this project we selected Tikkurila Akvi Top DS 25 because it provides outstanding durability while maintaining a beautiful satin finish.
Its benefits include:
● Excellent scratch resistance
● Superb stain resistance
● Outstanding adhesion
● Exceptional durability
● Beautiful self-levelling finish
● Easy maintenance for busy family kitchens
Combined with the timeless elegance of Farrow & Ball De Nimes, the finished kitchen now has a rich, sophisticated appearance that perfectly suits the property.
Completing the Transformation with New Hardware
To complement the new colour scheme, the homeowners also updated their kitchen hardware.
Through our partnership with Slinger’s Ironmongers, our customers receive an exclusive 25% discount on selected handles, hinges and accessories, helping complete the transformation while keeping costs down.
The hardware provides the perfect finishing touch and enhances the overall luxury feel of the kitchen.
Every Detail Matters
Before final completion, every cabinet door was carefully refitted and adjusted to ensure perfect alignment.
Every hinge recess, moulding, edge and panel was thoroughly inspected before handover.
The finished kitchen looks exactly as a bespoke Tom Howley kitchen should—beautifully crafted, perfectly finished and built to stand the test of time.
