Hi Chippy,
As PJK says, it's 2 weeks away! The original plan was to refit the old kitchen units which I was going to do myself (with a bit off assistance), it was only when we removed the old units and saw their condition that we came to our senses, hence the last minute panic... on the bright side it has led me to this forum.
We don't really have much time to re-plan the whole kitchen and we're hoping to extend at some (distant) point in the future which would have a change of kitchen again. So we're looking to replace the old layout but with new units/worktops. Having said that, there will need to be some adjustments to the layout:
1) Tiling the floor as mentioned previously (it's currently lino).
2) My wife has already bought a new cooker (FLAVEL Milano 100) which is larger than the original (1m wide) so me may have to lose the small unit to the right of the oven and possibly the small one to the left as well, the cooker arrives on the 20th. Washing machine & dishwasher arrive this week. We'll swap out the extractor as well to match the width.
3) The sink in the utility room has already been removed along with the tiles etc and is being re-plastered, a dishwasher and washing machine will go there so we will probably want a worktop over the top of both.
4) The cupboards/worktop on the chimney breast as shown in the second photo could probably do with a swap out as well to match the ones in photo 1.
5) The fridge will be replaced with an American style one, so the worktop in 4 would be shorter to accommodate.
Thanks in advance for your response,
Haydn.
