From the sounds of it you have been heavily involved on these plots from the start, I can imagine tis quite a stress at times but seeing the finished installation I bet its all worth it.
Another lovely looking job though mate
Jaymo.
The guy who came and templated the other runs in the kitchen and utility room, is the owner of the granite company. He reckoned there would be about 20mm spare on an un-cut granite slab for this island. We sent about 3 different layouts to them back in the design stage, to ensure we could get what the client wanted and that it wasn't too big for the size of granite that was available.
He also said, he is going to get 6 fitters there to lift if into position. It will have to come through the house and then through the door from the hallway, diagonally!!!!......
I was given the original architects drawings of the 10 plots, back in November 2012. Initially, we had to do 2 designs for each of the plots.
As it turned out, I supplied 8 of the kitchens and fitted 9 of them. One guy bought and fitted his own.
It has been a nice ongoing project, and the Builders have been really good to work with. They have quite a few more projects in the pipeline that I am optomisic that I will get to quote for. One of the projects is huge.......! Fingers Crossed
All the purchasers of the houses have been really nice people to deal with as well. Each of the kitchens have had their own set of challenges, as you would expect with a project like this.
