Hi

I can recommend JEFF the joiner (jsmith2009) on SF.

Jeff is a first class tradesman who has installed me a new kitchen a couple of years ago plus new bathroom and is a clean and tidy worker he also has at his disposal all supplementary trades to do things he doesn't specialise in, and is a genuine likeable bloke so I would recommend him.

Has anyone used the Rotherham branch of Wren kitchens? Debating ordering kitchen from there. We know there's bad history with incomplete deliveries and installation nationally but wondered if local situation might be different. (Will be looking for fitter independently in any case.)

Does anyone have any recommendations and an idea of how much it would cost to have kitchen cabinet doors/ends painted, new handles, tiles removed / walls made good, new granite work tops and splashbacks.

 

We've moved to a new house and can't afford a whole new kitchen but not sure I can live with the really dated one ?

 

Thanks!

How long's a piece of string, you'd need a few trades people to come out and quote on the job really.

I know - it's not easy... But I guess if anyone on here does that kind of revamp it would be great if the contact me and I can supply pictures measurements etc etc. My question is aimed at finding out if anyone does that? Who is recommended? And is it a £20000 job or £200 or a rough ball park.

Easy couple of grand, what with the granite worktops and such.

Buy new made to measure doors from HPP near Crystal Peaks, get some good quality laminate work tops, keep old layout so you don't have the expense of moving services. Granite/composite work tops are very expensive and require specialist fitting and cleaning. I revamped a kitchen like this and everyone thought it was a new kitchen, hundreds of pounds instead of thousands. Job in town!

We plan to have a new kitchen fitted before this Christmas. As it is close to Christmas, I think it's better to have a rough idea how much would it cost then set a reasonable budget plan first. Could anyone who has experience or kind trade men who are experts in this area give some information or advice please?

 

--It has 12 units - 2 tall units, 7 base units and 3 wall units.

 

--It includes a gas hob, single oven and extractor (goes to outside). integrated appliance is a dishwasher only. No wash machine. No refrigerator.

 

--Gas, cold/hot water pipes and electricity should be in place before installation so just need to connect them.

 

--The work top is laminate and the same as the floor. No tiles on the wall.

 

--The new kitchen will be a "naked" room - so no old unit or floor need to remove.

 

--Kitchen units would be rigid when delivered. Hopefully it should reduce the cost and time a wee bit.

 

--Floor will be laminate and room size is about 4mx3m

 

Thanks in advance for all your replies. :):)

Hi. I require a well experienced kitchen fitter to install my new kitchen(currently in storage) including digital extractor fan with external kit, gas cooker, combi washer/dryer, sink, the fixing of existing power sockets to inside of base units and wall tiling. No 'Jack of all trades' please, no disrespect to anyone.

 

Recommendations would be much appreciated.

 

Thank you.
