About Manor Design

Passion for Design.
Built on Decades of Trust.

Est. 1990 · Basildon, Essex

Over Three Decades of Transforming Essex Homes

Manor Design was founded on a simple but powerful belief: your home should be a true reflection of who you are. Established in 1990 by Colin Harvey and Simon Tristram, we have spent more than 35 years turning that belief into beautifully crafted kitchens, bathrooms, and bedrooms for families across Essex and beyond.

With over 75 years of combined professional experience, we bring an unmatched depth of knowledge to every project — from the initial conversation through to the final installation. We listen carefully, design thoughtfully, and deliver with craftsmanship that sets us apart.

Our Basildon showroom — one of the largest interior design centres in Essex — features more than 18 full-size displays, giving you the chance to see, touch and truly imagine what is possible in your own home.

“We understand clients want to see and feel a three-dimensional product which will unify with the landscape of their home — this is why we continue to reinvest in our showroom displays.”

Exceptional Craftsmanship

We work only with trusted manufacturers and skilled local installation teams who share our commitment to quality. The result speaks for itself.

Clear Communication

No jargon, no surprises. You will always know where your project stands and who to call — from day one to day done.
