Most versatile kitchen door?

It just has to be timeless plain flat door in gloss or matt.

What tops the most popular kitchen colour?

Ivory or Cream is the most popular cabintet and door colour ( does your designer have matching cabinets or just white?) but what tops it? As we are currently offering a range of granite at the same price as Duropal worktop (special drainage channel for capturing spills before they make a mess of the inside of your cabinet), many of our customers are choosing a contrasting Galaxy Black or Treviso Granite worktop.


Cream / Ivory is still the most popular cabinet and door, but what tops it?


For more information on granite worktops direct from 'manufacturer' please contact Mark N Hopgood mark@hopgood.eu

The pain of getting a new kitchen - 5 tips on how to eliminate heartache


Some installers refuse to install a kitchen bought from a flat pack supplier because of having to go back and forth. Make sure your supplier can guarantee that all the parts will be there and if not, that they will sort out problems. This is called snagging - the process of recording and resolving problems.
 
Kitchens can be expensive - either spend your money or time wisely. Cheap could be IKEA but there are always odd bits so that means travelling back to store. Can you afford the time and fuel?

Design - drawing out your plan in advance or using an online checker can help in getting your design exactly what you want.

Guys mostly design kitchens, so get soime ideas from cooking lovers. As a mother I wanted an eye level oven because I thought it was safer than having a built under that kids could open.

Get what you really want - there's nothing like regretting, not having the quality and style you want. You won't change it for 10 years on average so it's worth getting what you want.

Paying with finance can be cheaper and gives you more protection (according to Which? magazine)
