We first met Ahmed back in 2018 when he helped us with some problems with the kitchen cupboards we had from another company. So when it came to revamping our kitchen we naturally turned to him. Ahmed and the team behind him were just so easy to work with. The advice and suggestions were always sensible and practicable. The installation team were excellent, good at what they do and considerate of us. The design works for us and we have been delighted by the changes that were made. If I’m ever asked about who to go to for a kitchen, I point them in Ahmed’s direction.

I don’t usually leave reviews however I felt it was a must after my experience with this company.We recently had a extension on our house and needed a kitchen and utility fitted.As you can imagine this was a extremely stressful time.We went to plenty of kitchen shops and had some ridiculous quotes for what we wanted and the price we would have to pay.Then we were recommended 54ea interiors.We met with Ahmed who helped us design our kitchen which ticked all the boxes and fell within our budget he was very easygoing and didn’t pressure us in anyway to do anything we were not happy with.We had a lot of problems with builders along the way which delayed our kitchen fitting however the team were always so understanding and tried to help us out where ever they could.We are very happy with the outcome and honestly cannot believe we finally have our dream kitchen truly outstanding service where Ahmed went above and beyond to liaising with the builder and the electrician to make sure everything was perfect.Thank you so much Ahmed we hope your business is always successful and that you are blessed in all you do.you really helped us out I don’t think you realise how much.Thanks again.

Ifti the fitter also did a superb job making sure everything was perfect. Had to replace a few doors this was done without any issues. Happy customer.

I cannot recommend EA54 highly enough! From start to finish, the entire process was seamless, and the quality of the kitchen itself is outstanding — beautifully designed and finished to the highest standard. A huge thank you to Ahmed, who designed the kitchen — he did a fantastic job! His precision, brilliant advice, and ongoing support throughout the entire process made such a difference. He really listened to what we wanted and brought our vision to life perfectly.What really made the experience exceptional was Ifty, our kitchen fitter. Ifty is, without a doubt, the most amazing fitter I have ever met. His attention to detail, skill level, and professionalism are second to none. Not only is his craftsmanship impeccable, but his friendly and positive personality made the whole experience an absolute pleasure. Nothing was too much trouble, and he went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. If you’re lucky enough to have Ifty working on your kitchen, you are in the best hands possible.Thank you to the whole team for an incredible job — we are absolutely thrilled with our new kitchen!

I sourced my beautiful Quartz worktop through 54EA interiors who took care of all the arrangements from templating to installation. I was delighted to be able to view the full quartz slabs locally which really helped me make my final choice. The regular communication from Shenda was excellent who kept me informed and updated throughout the whole process.10/10 for customer service, quality of the quartz and price.

After looking around for a decent kitchen & fitters, 54EA were recommended to us by Kitchenfindr. Ahmed the owner of 54EA was very helpful and came up with some good ideas when designing our kitchen. We were extremely grateful when 54EA managed to bring the date forward for our fitting as we had a Wake at home the day after it was fitted. The fitters, Iffti & Richard, worked very hard, and Shenda, from the office, kept in touch with us every step of the way. We did have a couple of issues but these were remedied by the team at 54EA. After our dealings with a large well known kitchen company some years ago, it was very refreshing to deal with a smaller company, who had the time to listen to what we wanted and see it through to the end. No problems were too great or too small for them. If you are looking for a new kitchen, please visit 54EA Interiors in Birmingham, whose prices are very competitive & the staff are really helpful.

Aleesha Akhtar

The service we received throughout the whole process was absolutely disgusting, my family and I were appalled in the professionalism as well as the outcome of the kitchen. It looked completely unfinished, and everyone who’d seen it agreed. The wrong units were ordered and therefore the whole process was longed out for an extra month or so! The communication and customer service itself was horrific, the staff were rude and no one seemed to know what they were talking about, which made it clear why they were making mistakes. If we could go back we definitely would, very, very upset and disappointed in the outcome. Another thing promised and a different provided unfortunately.

I had a great experience with this company, had my kitchen, bathrooms, walk in wardrobe and cabinet in living room done by these guys.Ifti did a great job fitting everything and took his trainers off when he was in the house which was very respectful of him, overall id give these guys 5 out of 5 for their rating.

I had use this company 20 years ago, was very pleased with them and decided to use them again.As usual Ahmed designed the whole kitchen and it looked amazing on the drawings, but when it was installed by his fitters , Iftty , Richard and Shaid , the whole concept became a wonderful reality as it looked fantastic.They fitted the kitchen to a very high standard, truly professional and looked beautiful.The whole teams works together in harmony with Shenda keeping me up-to-date with the kitchen. Really pleased with the job and would definitely recommend 👌.Finally my thanks to Ahmed and Shenda and the whole team, Iftty,Richard and Shaid for making a dream come true 👍

An absolute pleasure working with both Ahmed and Shenda. From the moment we walked into see them, they made us feel welcome, listened to what we wanted and had a good choice of products to show us. Very professional and also friendly. Ahmed has an eye for detail so if something isn't quite right, he'll make sure it gets put right. Their installation team were great too, finished the two installations in two days!! I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend 54EA Interiors to anyone. I will post photos later once the house is completed.

What a wonderful experience we had with 54 EA. we recently had a Shaker kitchen installed by 54 EA. From start to finish, the service was excellent. Ahmed was very patient in the desinging phase and was able to create a kitchen to our exact requirements. Ahmed spent time ensuring we were happy with everything before finalising. Shenda was very helpful in ordering and updating us. Delivery was punctual, and the installation team Ifti, Richard, and Saeed were exceptional. They were very professional and installed the kitchen in just 1 day.If anyone is thinking about getting a new kitchen, I would highly recommend 54 EA. They are extremely professional and very competitive in price.

Mohamed Malik

I cannot fault what the team did. I don’t have a massive kitchen and so needed to maximise space. We worked together and came up with a solution, which I promptly changed and the guys accommodated. Easy peasy.Then came Ifty and his team. Crack of sparrows as promised.They worked like troopers and got the job done and at every stage kept me in the loop. Trouble free guys and so friendly.I’d choose this whole team, from design to delivery and execution again.

We have been using 54EA for the last 15 years and have had a total of 6 kitchens from the team in various family homes. I can safely say 54EA have always excelled and gone above and beyond for every kitchen and our new kitchen/utility was no exception. My wife had a specific vision in mind in that she wanted a bespoke in-frame kitchen, something that wasn’t supplied by 54EA. The team worked closely with my wife working from architect plans, designing her dream kitchen/utility. Once she was happy with the design, we left the team to research and source an in-frame kitchen that matched her vision. We have ended up with something that you would see within interior design magazines and can’t express words to describe the kitchen or utility and probably easier to visualize from photos.We look forward in working with the team this coming year to complete the boot room.

Ordered a kitchen from these guys they were great at the start but kept demanding money before rhe kitchen was installed ? Anyway i paid it in full and guess what the kitchen arrived 12 weeks later then the promised date. Shameless no apology no refund blamed china and the manufacturing why would i be paying 40k for a kitchen from china !? No wonder they were adamant on paying before installations dont fall for this con

Excellent service from start to finish from 54 E A Interiors. Ayaz Ahmed did a brilliant job designing my kitchen. Nothing was too much trouble, he helped me choose door colours, granite options, lighting and appliances and gave excellent advice on tiles and wall colours. His attention to detail, knowledge and professionalism was fantastic. Shenda kept me informed every step of the way from ordering the kitchen to delivery and installation dates, again nothing was too much trouble and they couldn’t do enough for me. The kitchen installation was impeccable, the team arrived on time, nothing was rushed and the kitchen was fitted with precision and looks absolutely perfect. I would highly recommend 54 E A Interiors, Ayaz Ahmed and his team are incredibly accommodating and professional and have delivered me a truly beautiful kitchen. Thank you for all your amazing work.

Just placed a deposit with 54EA interiors. Ahmed, Charlotte and their team took time and care to understand our wish list and design our dream kitchen. Kind, friendly and personal without any 'sales pitch'. So far the most stress free design process at an unbeatable price. Can't wait to continue our renovation journey with them!

Ahmed and the team have been very helpful from the start of the project til the end. They remodelled our kitchen entirely, Ahmed gave his professional advice based on his vast experience and helped shape our new kitchen. Everything was managed well by the 54 EA team and was on schedule. Ahmed personally visited for a pre check and ironed out any potential issues and outlined how the fitting would happen along with his suggestions to re form our kitchen into a modern kitchen, dining and living space area. Despite changing plans last minute Ahmed accommodated to our needs and his input was very valuable. He designed the changes efficiently and immediately. His teams work was thorough and very tidy and the installation was finished on time, and to our complete satisfaction. Overall we are extremely happy with our new kitchen, dining and living space. Thank you so much to the whole team and appreciate your professionalism and patience throughout the process. Definitely recommend 54 EA interiors.The Sull Family, Solihull.

54ea supplied and fitted a high quality german kitchen for us in leicestershire. while this meant a few trips to birmingham to plan things, this was worth it. covid had its own challenges with several months delays including delivery of some appliances impacting after the initial fit, but the finished kitchen presents as in a showroom. Ahmed is likeable, honest and professional and worked with us in planning and delivering the end result. the fitting team are customer focused and work to a high standard. the overall experience is very positive and we are pleased with our decision to go with 54ea on a major purchase such as this.we would recommend 54ea to others without hesitation.

From start to finish, working with Ahmed and Shenda at EA54 was an absolute pleasure. Nothing was too much trouble, Ahmed was always more than happy to visit the property to discuss progress and to make sure we were happy with how things were going, and we were really impressed by the professionalism, dedication, and pride in the work that was done. A really brilliant company who I couldn't recommend enough. If you're looking for a new kitchen and you're in the midlands area, this is the only company to go to.
