Anyone have any particularly good/bad experiences with kitchen installations?
Just moving into my new home next Friday (Yeah, Friday 13th - what could go wrong when completing a house purchase?) and the kitchen is the main thing I want to get sorted out. But what' s the best way of getting a new kitchen?
My main query, I think, is how you go about getting it all measured up and finding the cupboards & style you want, and then getting it fitted. I know that the shops can fit it, but I've heard that they tend to charge a ridiculous amount. But if I was to walk into Magnet and choose some fancy kitchen and get it all made to spec, how would I then get Mr KitchenFitter along to fit it - confident that he knows how it's all supposed to be put together? Would Magnet just send it all in parts that Mr KitchenFitter could happily rock up the next day, and put it all together?
