Supply Only Kitchen Process
First of all, you will need to book an appointment with one of our kitchen designers, once you’ve done this, there are a few simple steps you will need to take. Below we have created a step by step guide to help you get started:
What you will need:
– Paper
– Pencil
– Tape Measure
– Step ladder
– Camera (a few photos of your kitchen space can help our designer with the process)

Step 1
Make a rough sketch of your kitchen layout, including walls, windows and doors. Make sure to include things that stick out in the room such as pillars or boilers. Highlight positions of light switches (new and old), power points and service points for plumbing, electricity or gas. Existing utilities such as sinks need to be included. The sketch does not need to be perfect- it is the measurements that are the most important. Just a clear drawing will be sufficient!

Step 2
Make a sketch of each wall, be sure to include dimensions of windows, electrical fittings, gas cooker points, radiators, air vents/extractors and any fixed objects we would need to work your new kitchen around.

Step 3
Grab your tape measure, and start by measuring between each fixed point in the room, this means measuring the distance from the edge of the door frame architrave to the corner of the room, the corner of the room to the window reveals and so on. Measure the size and position of all fixed objects, recording the dimensions as you go. Work clockwise from your start point to ensure nothing is missed!

Step 4
The rooms height will also need measured. It is strongly advised to use a step ladder for this, as it is sometimes tempting to stand on worktops. Remembering walls sometimes are not completely straight. Make sure to measure any sloping ceilings.
Step 5
Add all the room dimensions up, to check that they balance. Tip: Ask whoever is fitting your kitchen to check your measurements are accurate. You should now have accurate drawings of your existing kitchen to bring along with you to your Design appointment!
