Meath kitchens split into two quite different kinds of job, and which one you have changes the design more than anything else. There is the newer commuter housing around Ashbourne, Dunboyne, Ratoath and the edges of Navan, and there is the older stock in the market towns, Trim, Kells and the centre of Navan, where the rooms are a different shape entirely. We design, make and fit kitchens across the county, with a 3D design and itemised quote for your own room. For Navan specifically, see kitchens in Navan.
Who designs, supplies and fits kitchens in Meath?
The Home Upgrade Co designs, supplies and fits kitchens throughout County Meath, covering Navan, Ashbourne, Dunboyne, Ratoath, Dunshaughlin, Trim and Kells. One team handles the design, the supply and the installation, and the fitting is done by our own fitters rather than subcontracted out, so there is one point of contact from your first message to the last door. Every job starts with photos, a short video and rough sizes of the room, sent from anywhere in the county. The 3D design of your own room and the itemised quote are drawn from what you send, and the kitchen is fitted within 12 weeks of sign off. Kitchens start from 12,000 euro fitted including VAT at 23 per cent, and most family kitchens land between 15,000 and 25,000 euro. We also cover Dublin, Kildare and Wicklow.

Which parts of Meath do you cover?
All of County Meath, with the same 3D design and itemised quote everywhere. We are most often in Navan, Ashbourne, Dunboyne, Ratoath, Dunshaughlin, Trim and Kells.
The southern end of the county, closest to Dublin, is where we are most often, but the 3D design is free anywhere in Meath.
Further north and west, towards Kells, Athboy and Oldcastle, is equally covered and priced the same.
Do you fit kitchens in Navan?
Yes. We design and fit kitchens across Navan, from older town centre houses to the newer estates, with the same 3D design and itemised quote.
Navan is the county town, and it has both kinds of Meath kitchen job in one place. Houses in and around the centre of the town tend to be older, with walls that are rarely square and rooms that were never planned around a modern kitchen, which is where units made to measure and scribed to the wall earn their keep. The estates around the edges of Navan are closer to the commuter housing further south, where the room is usually fine and the gain comes from a better layout and more storage.
If you are looking at kitchens in Navan, you do not need to travel to a showroom to see what yours would look like. The 3D design is drawn from your own photos, video and sizes, and shows the finished kitchen in that room, from every angle, before anything is made. We explain the difference in do you need to visit a kitchen showroom. The 3D design is free in Navan as it is everywhere else in the county.
Which kitchen styles do you fit in Meath?
Every style we make: handleless, shaker, in frame, modern and traditional kitchens, plus islands and larders, made to measure and fitted by our own team.
Older town houses in Trim, Kells and central Navan often suit a shaker or in frame kitchen, made to measure for walls that are rarely square. The two thousands estate kitchens in Ashbourne, Dunboyne and Ratoath suit handleless and modern kitchens, often with an island or a larder.
Kitchens start from €12,000 fitted, including VAT, the same in Meath as in Dublin. A typical family kitchen with a quartz worktop comes to €15,000 to €25,000, and our kitchen cost guide explains what moves the number.
Everything we make is premium and made to the highest spec: made to measure, built on a melamine faced 18mm plywood carcass rather than chipboard, designed in 3D and fitted by our own team, and it is priced to that standard. Quality at this level is not a budget purchase, and we would rather say so here than after you have waited for a quote. If you are working to a tight budget, we are honestly not the right fit.
How does older Meath housing change a kitchen design?
Older town houses tend to have smaller, more separate rooms with thicker walls and less square geometry, so nothing standard fits properly.
A kitchen in an older house in Trim, Kells or central Navan is rarely a clean rectangle. Walls lean, floors fall away, and the room may have a chimney breast or a return eating into it. Off the shelf units leave gaps at every one of those points.
That is precisely where made to measure earns its keep. Everything is cut to the measurements taken on the day and scribed in on fitting, so the kitchen meets the wall with no filler strips pretending the room is square.
And the newer commuter housing?
Ashbourne, Dunboyne and Ratoath are largely two thousands estate housing, so rooms are square and the problems are layout and storage, not geometry.
Those kitchens are now reaching the age where the original units are tired. The rooms themselves are usually fine, so the gain comes from rethinking the layout, adding a larder, and often removing wall units to open the space up.
Where the house is being extended at the same time, the kitchen should be designed at drawing stage. Planning, where it is needed, goes through Meath County Council, and your architect or builder confirms what applies.
How does a Meath job actually run?
Photos, a video and sizes from you, full 3D plans and one itemised quote from us, then manufacture and fitting by our own team.
Send the photos and video whenever suits you, evenings included. The 3D design lets you see the finished kitchen in your own room and change anything while changes are still free.
Nothing is ordered and nothing is charged until you say yes. See our main kitchens page for what is included, and our shaker kitchens page if you have an older house where framed doors suit.
How does it work?
Send us photos, a short video and rough sizes of the space and tell us what you want. Our designers draw it in 3D so you see the finished piece in your own room, and you get one complete itemised quote. Nothing is ordered and nothing is charged until you say yes.
Can one team do the rest of the job too?
The same team that makes this fits it, and we also do kitchens, fitted wardrobes, internal doors and windows. If more than one thing needs doing, it is one contractor, one schedule and one point of contact rather than four. See the rest of our work.
Where can you get a kitchen designed in Meath?
At your own kitchen table. You send photos, a video and sizes of the room, and our design team draws the 3D design from them.
Getting a kitchen designed in Meath usually means a drive to Navan or into Dublin to stand in a showroom. We do the opposite: the design starts from your own photos and video, and what comes back is your own room in 3D, with your window, your back door and your ceiling lights in it.
It is free, it carries no obligation, and nothing is taken until you have accepted the quote. Our kitchen design page covers the measurements a layout has to respect, and how a new kitchen works sets out every stage in working days.
Do you fit kitchens in Navan, Ashbourne and Ratoath?
Yes, all three, and the rest of the county with them. Navan has its own page because it is the county town and the biggest source of Meath work.
Navan has a page of its own covering the estates at Johnstown, Windtown and Athlumney, the older town centre houses and the delivery access: kitchens in Navan.
Ashbourne, Ratoath, Dunboyne, Dunshaughlin and Clonee are the south Meath commuter belt, and they sit closer to north west Dublin than to Navan. The housing there is mostly 1998 to 2008 estate stock with a square kitchen and dining area at the back, a utility off it and a builder specified run of units that is now at replacement age. Trim, Kells, Athboy, Slane, Duleek, Stamullen and the coast at Bettystown and Laytown are covered on the same terms, with no travel charge inside the county.
If you are on the Dublin side of the boundary, kitchen fitters in Dublin is the page to read.
