New Kitchen-Checklist

Things to consider before bringing in a new kitchen fitter

Designing and planning the new kitchen of your dreams is an exciting time but with lots to consider. Visiting your local kitchen showroom means you can immerse yourself in new kitchen products, kitchen styles and gain fresh ideas.

Then comes the kitchen design itself, which at times; can all seem a little overwhelming. A new kitchen installation doesn't have to be a gruelling process; there are some key factors to consider; which will assist you in how you best approach your dream new kitchen. You want to ensure you possess confidence in making the right decisions and at the right time before the kitchen fitters arrive.

Look for professional advice on the best kitchen design to work within your home

Like with any design and planning, whether that's architecture to motor vehicles, designing your new kitchen is a complex and multi-layered process. This procedure requires every stage of the ground plan to work in a synchronised fashion, where the flow and continuity must work effectively together.

Hold off on electrical installations until your new kitchen has been designed.

Before the new kitchen installers begin, it is imperative to know what the design will entail; for example, you do not want to rush ahead and install new electrical points until after speaking to a kitchen designer, as this might limit your new kitchen layout.

A professional kitchen designer is full of fantastic ideas

A kitchen designer can save you time and money by offering advice on the best use of your available space and similar considerations at the crucial design stages.

Try to communicate with the kitchen designers for clarity

So before greeting your kitchen builder at the front door, there are a few more ideas of noteworthiness to consider. Be clear about what you want to achieve in your new kitchen design; being vague and unclear could lead to assumptions at the quoting stage, potentially leading to unnecessary costs. Try not to overcomplicate what it is you want to convey; keep details relevant and focus on what you want rather than too many ideas that may confuse both yourself and the designer.
