Redesigning Your Kitchen

New Kitchen with Cupboard and Worktop Replacement

Why is everyone at the party always in the kitchen? Perhaps it’s because that’s where the snacks are, but more likely it’s because the kitchen is comfortable. So why not upgrade the kitchen to a place where you’re proud to entertain?

Upgrading a kitchen can take on many forms; from something as small as changing the cupboard handles to a complete overhaul of the units and worktops. The middle ground would be to change the doors and end panels on the units. Another simple alternative is to change the worktops. The best way to join the worktops on a 90* angle is a mason’s mitre joint, although some people have metal joining strips to butt joint the worktops. This is a far cheaper way of joining worktops, but won’t look as good.

Kitchens have a long durability, so a new kitchen is always a great investment. Plus it will add tremendous value to the house if you were ever looking to sell.
