Getting To Know You
The secret to any great relationship is a sound understanding of each other. Getting to know you and your family is first and foremost and our design consultation will help us gain a better understanding of the vision you have for your dream kitchen.
Our professional team will assess your needs and lifestyle to best determine the type of kitchen you can build.
We find this is a great way to build confidence and trust, the foundations of any great partnership.

The Manufacture of Kitchen
It is time to start manufacturing your new kitchen. We process your entire job via computer then send it down to the latest CNC machine. The CNC machine takes digitized data from a computer to control, automate, and monitor the movements of the CNC machine. The automated nature of CNC machining works laser guided which enables the production of high precision and high accuracy. Our qualified team of joiners then knock up your custom-made cabinetry to the design of your approved plans. We only use the highest quality of Australian made products. Depending on the type of cabinetry of your dream kitchen, this process can take between 4 – 6 weeks. A further progress payment is required one week prior to installation. You are advised at each stage and informed of your installation day/s.

Installation Of Your Dream Kitchen
The exciting day has arrived to install your dream kitchen. The rip out of your existing old kitchen and finishing up your new kitchen can take between 8-9 days. We manage the whole process by managing different trades for you, once the new kitchen is fully installed, then our stonemason measures the benchtop and splashback, usually one week later the stone will be installed, trades then follow to fit off. Once all trades have completed their work you are ready to enjoy your new dream kitchen.
Outlining our process up-front means we can both ensure deadlines are met, avoiding unnecessary delays and additional costs.
