Kitchen Wrapping Ideas for 2026

Still popular in 2026

Grey matt kitchen wrap remains one of the most requested looks — it's modern, hides fingerprints and works in most spaces. White and off-white matt are close behind. Woodgrain (oak, walnut, light oak) is still strong for a warm, natural look without the cost of new wooden doors. Marble-effect wrap on doors and worktops continues to appeal for a premium look at a fraction of the price of real stone.

Finishes that suit open-plan living

Many kitchens in 2026 are open to living or dining areas. Matt and soft-touch finishes tend to feel less clinical and fit well with mixed-use spaces. Gloss can bounce light and make a smaller kitchen feel bigger — still a solid choice. We bring samples to the free survey so you can see how finishes look in your own light and next to your existing tiles or worktops.

Cost and timing

Kitchen wrapping typically costs 70–80% less than a like-for-like replacement and takes 1–3 days. If you're planning a refresh in 2026, a wrap can give you a new look without the mess and cost of a full rip-out. For typical price ranges see our kitchen wrapping cost guide.
