Kitchens

[Graham Orm]

The thing with all the kitchen box boys is that they make their markup on the end panels and doors. Designing to keep these to a minimum saves ££££££.

If you go for a plinth then it's always worth buying some spare because if you are unfortunate enough to have a water leak and the plinths swell up...sod's law will guarantee that the colour way of your plinth is no longer available. Cost of spare plinths is cheaper than a new kitchen!

I don't have leaks.

Hi Rod,

I have a Howdens account and the missus wanted me to fit us a kitchen, after all the others.

She wanted the wooden fronted one, (tewkesbury, I think) and wood tops. Whilst researching the worktops online, I came across these guys;

http://www.solidwoodkitchencabinets.co.uk/

Based in Gloucester, with a good showroom, but can just order online. THey don't do a trade discount, but...

We ended up getting their cabinets and worktops - and the whole lot came out a coupla hundred quid LESS than my discounted Howdens price. And they have a very wide range of cabinet widths, so virtually no wastage or fillers. And the cabinets themselves are solid oak - no MDF or chipboard in sight - You have to put them together yourself, but they are bloody good.

I'll stick some photos up if you like - and if you want PM me if you want to call in and take a look at the quality for yourself.

+ 1 My Sister may be moving to a new house in the near future and a kitchen will more than likely be required.
