Modular Kitchens For Tall Somajiguda Flats
The flats we are called to in Somajiguda were built when a kitchen was a room for cooking and nothing else, which is why they hand you a ceiling noticeably higher than a new tower gives and a gas point that has not moved since the block went up. Both are worth keeping. The height turns into storage, and the old service positions become the frame the new kitchen is drawn inside.

What An Old Central Flat Gives Back
That spare height above the wall units is why a shallow false ceiling costs you nothing here, and it is also where the duct, the wiring and the loft doors can all disappear at once.
A Loft You Can Reach
The band above the wall cabinets becomes shuttered loft storage for suitcases and festival vessels, set at a height a step stool will reach rather than a ladder.
The Gas Point Stays
The hob is planned around the gas position already there, whether that is a piped connection or a cylinder that needs a ventilated cupboard with room to be changed in.
Platform Raised To Suit You
Old platforms were cast low for a generation shorter than yours, so the working height is reset to whoever cooks most, and that is felt in the first week of rolling chapatis.
Damp Along The Old Wall
Where an external or shared wall carries damp through the monsoon, the units against it are built off a moisture resistant board and held clear of the plaster so air still moves behind them.
Washing Up In Daylight
The sink keeps the old window, which in these deep rooms is the one place real daylight lands, and the tall storage moves across to the blind wall instead.
The Service Hatch Reused
The opening into the dining room that these flats often have becomes a serving shelf with a crockery cupboard beside it, instead of being plastered shut and forgotten.
How We Work In Older Central Blocks
- Services Traced Before Modules
- The waste drop, the water inlet, the gas line and the wall a duct can honestly reach are found and marked first, because in a building of this age they are the only fixed points worth trusting.
- Neighbours On The Landing
- Two or three families share your stair, so cutting hours, use of the lift and where a bag of rubble may stand overnight are agreed with them before the first panel arrives.
- Old Plaster Is Never Straight
- Walls replastered more than once bow by more than a shutter line can hide, so fillers and scribes go into the drawing rather than being improvised on the day of fitting.
- Made To Be Serviced
- Households here tend to stay a long time, so hinges and channels come from ranges whose parts can still be bought and swapped rather than from whatever was cheapest that month.
- What A Chimney Cannot Do
- If the only way out is long and full of bends we tell you what that costs you in extraction, and we would sooner propose a different hob position than sell a unit that will disappoint.
Somajiguda Kitchen Questions
Our Somajiguda block has no duct provision. Where does the chimney vent?
We look for the nearest honest route out while we are in the flat, which in these buildings is sometimes not the obvious wall, then plan the cabinetry so the run stays short and stays hidden above the wall units. Where no good route exists at all we say so, and talk through what that means for the hob position before anything is quoted.
Can we keep the old granite platform and change only the cabinets under it?
Sometimes, and it is worth checking, because the stone in these flats is often thicker than anything sold today. What decides it is whether the platform is level, whether it can be supported once the masonry below comes out, and whether the existing cut out suits the sink you want. All three get tested in the kitchen before we recommend either way.
We have a piped gas connection. Does that fix where the hob goes?
It limits the hob rather than fixing it. The connection can usually be extended a short distance by the supplier, so the real question is how far it can travel before the run becomes untidy or unsafe. We measure the existing line and mark the honest range on the drawing, and the hob is placed inside it.
