Have you spoken to any fitters yet? Some won't fit certain kitchen packs.
I had Magnet to fit a kitchen a few years ago they drove me to despair
..failed to turn up as arranged to measure the kitchen when I had taken time off work.
..wrong measurements taken so big gaps everywhere,
..they gouged huge holes in the wall for cabling and didn't repair them,
..the waste pipe under the sink was too short leaving a gap so the kitchen flooded,
..didn't seal the sink and draining board insert so it leaked,
..set fire to the kitchen wall with a blow lamp,
..work surface wrongly cut so had to wait for the delivery of another one,
..Plugs put on the wrong way around and one for the washing machine directly under water pipe ,
..diarrhoea all over my loo.
..cigarette ends thrown everywhere
inside the house.
In the end I ordered them out and contacted the manager insisting he came out which he did.
He sent someone else to finish off the job.
The first two men left some tool which I packed up and placed in the garage having informed the manager. One day they came to my house and walked into my kitchen without knocking to get their tools
The excuse for all this, apparently the company was busy and good fitters difficult to find
.
My advice to anyone having a kitchen fitted is to ask for testimonials and request permission to view an example of their work.
