Modular Kitchen in KPHB, Hyderabad
Modular Kitchens For Altered KPHB Houses
The street grid reads simply enough, phase by phase, and then you open a kitchen door in KPHB and find a room that has been extended once, partitioned once and patched twice, with one wall well out of true and a floor that changes level where the old house stopped. A catalogue layout will not sit in that room. What sits in it is a run drawn to the numbers a tape gives on the day, with the awkwardness taken up on purpose rather than discovered at fitting.

What A Drawn To Fit Kitchen Gives You
Because the room came together in stages, the levels have to be reconciled before anything is ordered, from the floor step under the plinth to the false ceiling that can bring one ceiling height across a room currently living with two.
Fillers Taken Up On Purpose
Where a wall leans or a corner refuses to square up, the gap closes into a scribed filler at the end of the run, so the shutters stay on one line and the eye reads the joinery as straight.
The Patched Corner Opens
The blind corner where the extension met the old wall gets a pull out mechanism instead of a door with a dark hole behind it, which is usually where a third of an altered kitchen's storage was going to waste.
Part Modular, Part Built In
Standard modules carry most of the run and the one odd bay no module suits is made to size in the same board and finish, so a hundred millimetre problem is not solved with a special unit.
Edges That Survive Cutting
An irregular room means more trimmed pieces, and every cut edge is machine banded before it reaches the house, because a raw edge is what chips first on a panel that has been shaved to fit.
Wall Units On One Line
The lintel, the beam and the old ceiling rarely agree in a house that grew, so the wall unit line is set to the lowest of them and held level across the room instead of stepping with the ceiling.
A Sink Sized To Your Washing
One deep bowl with a drainboard beside it suits a household that washes steel by hand, and settling that before the counter is cut means the drainer falls towards the sink rather than pooling.
How We Work On A KPHB House
- Numbers From The Room
- Nothing is scaled off the drawing the house started with, since what stands today is two or three changes away from it. Every wall, reveal and level is taped in the room and the run is cut to those figures.
- Gas Line Traced First
- The pipe feeding the hob is followed from the meter to the point before the layout is fixed, since in an altered house it often runs exactly where a cabinet wants to be and rerouting it is licensed work with its own timing.
- You Keep A Working Sink
- The room is fitted in an order that leaves you a tap and a length of counter for most of the job, because a family living in the house cannot give up cooking while the work runs.
- Outdoor Wash Point Folded In
- The old wash place by the back door usually still takes the machine and the vessel pile, so it is planned as part of the kitchen rather than left outside it, with the path between the two kept clear.
- Tiling Stopped Where It Shows
- We mark on the wall where the dado stops behind the units, so no surface is tiled for a carcass to cover it and no bare patch is left showing above a wall unit either.
What KPHB Owners Ask
Our kitchen was extended and nothing is square. Can a modular kitchen still fit?
It can, and in these phases that is the normal starting point rather than the exception. The room is measured as it stands, including the wall out of true and the step where the old floor ends, and the awkwardness is collected into scribed fillers and one made to size bay. Those pieces are decided at measurement, so they read on the quote instead of appearing at fitting.
We live in the house. Do we have to move out while the kitchen is done?
No. The sequence is planned so that a tap and a stretch of counter stay usable while the rest goes in, and the wet work that cannot be shared is held to one agreed stretch. We tell you at the start which days are loud and dusty so you can arrange around those rather than around the whole job.
Should the old gas line and the outside wash place be dealt with at the same time?
Both are far easier to settle now than after the carcasses are standing, and both move the layout. We trace the gas pipe to its point and decide whether the hob stays, then plan the wash place by the back door as part of the room instead of an afterthought. Each of those reads as its own line so you can see what including it does.
