Top Tips Before You Select Your Kitchen Fitter

When you buy a kitchen from a professional company the kitchen will be designed to

you exact requirements, installed by a deadline, using qualified trades persons, and once finished will be clean and ready to use.

Kitchens are built in stages and encompass many different features. Many decisions will be required before and as your new kitchen is designed.

Electrics need to be installed by qualified electricians, that may work for or on behalf of the kitchen company. Electricians working in domestic homes in the UK must belong to the NICEIC.

Gas work needs to be carried out by qualified gas engineers who are Gas Safe Registered. The gas body previous to this was known as Corgi. Every gas engineer has a unique number, which can easily be looked up online.

Some of the exciting choices will focus on the following:

Floors. The usual materials are floor tiles, wood, laminate, stone, linoleum. The key considerations here are your budget, durability and cleaning of the flooring. Other types of flooring are cork and bamboo which are gaining popularity.

Handles. The style of your handles can make a huge difference to the overall look and feel of your kitchen. Some units incorporate handles which are hidden and hence a handleless kitchen with clean lines. Other handles are rounded, knobs, bars; there are thousands to choose from. You may find it more difficult to choose that you imagine due to the extensive choices. Consider which are easiest to clean too.

Kitchen Units. Styles and main colors modern kitchens are high gloss, but wooden country cottage style and many others are available. Ultra high white gloss is very contemporary.

Worktops. Granite or imitation? The price varies enormously. The edge of the worktop may be rounded or square and if you have children rounded worktop edges are the safer choice. Granite worktops can usually be cut to exact size.

Appliances. Another key feature of your kitchen. When it comes to appliances important points are of course the aesthetics, but more so in my opinion is the user interfaces, functionality, and energy efficiency rating. Washing machines are available which will carry out a fourteen minutes wash, saving you hours, and saving electricity.

When you are looking for kitchen companies, look for testimonials and word of mouth recommendations. These speak volumes. A tip for those living in smaller communities. If your kitchen fitter is local and works in his own locality then he must be good. Word quickly spreads when mistakes are made which is why some kitchen fitters will move further afield to work.
