The first stage was to rip out the old kitchen & survey the extent of the work required.
A new combi boiler was installed by a Corgi registered installer. This included moving it to an adjacent wall where it would fit in with the new cabinets being installed.
The old electrics were removed & new cables run to provide for a central pendant, 5 spots, under cabinet lighting & a central grid system for Cooker, Hob, Dishwasher & Fan.

The end wall was rendered where the old pipework had been removed. A large hole was repaired & the walls & ceilings were skimmed.
The kitchen suite & worktop were fitted.
The worktop was stained & then sealed with a wax resin to prolong its work life & protect against water & heat damage.
The new plaster was sealed in preparation for finishing coats.
