Wannabe fitter

[Rapidset]

Hi All

These are some pictures from my kitchen installation at home.I fitted the cabinets, plinth, cornice, upstands and window cill, I also tiled the splashback and the floor, a mate did the worktops. I hopefully have a job coming up working alongside an older experienced fitter as I want to fit full time. I would appreciate your Clints good or bad. 

Apolgies for the pictures not been in order uploaded them from my phone

Cheers

Cheers and well spotted

Yes a decent fit for your first
The only thing apart from the handle is the tall end panel going down to the floor on the oven, i think it looks better with the plinth running through.  Minor detail really, you should have no worries fitting in the future.

well done

It looks a very tidy fit. Despite the handle which i'm sure we've all done at some point, there are other areas which were given some thought where it would have been so easy to make a mistake. Namely the filler next to the oven to clear the window frame and also the end panel on the curved base unit to deal with the issue of the tall skirts. Seen those cocked up many times. Interested to know if you designed as well and foresaw the issues or somebody else.

Something looks odd and bowed, but I assume that's something to do with the camera as it appears in all of the first 3 pics at least?

Very nice job on the worktops BTW. Nicely done and a nice sheen, many people rush it and flood the worktops with it just sitting on the top.

If I was going to criticise anything i'd say i'd go a tad higher with the sockets so no issues with flexes hitting/rubbing the upstands, looks like you've just got away with it but i'd still be tempted to go slightly higher in future, say another 30-40mm.

Nice job though and think many would be proud of that.

Thanks PREM,

The oven housing end panels come over size and I cut them to the width and height that you see, I just assumed that they went to the floor as I have seen them like that elsewhere.So to allow the plinth to run through would you just cut it off level with bottom of the cabinet ?

Looks good.

Is the single oven an Essentials Premium Gas and a Premium Steam Oven?

Ventilation at plinth level says 10x200mm notch for each appliance but the Steam Oven also needs 100mm for the void above which seems a lot to me....

Colour Republic thanks for you Clints. 

A mate supplied the kitchen but I had a lot of input on the design mainly on the oven wall side. Originally the old kitchen was half that size and we extended out on the wall where the oven and hob are, the clear window was actually about 12 inches wider than it is now but I took the old glass out and reduced the fame to accommodate the oven housing unit. We are in the process of the selling the house and had great Clints on the kitchen, it's great to have some off professional fitter too cheers

Hi Gaz

Yes Essentialls Premium  Plus Gas oven and a  Microwave with Grill and convection oven, wasnt aware of that but we did add ventilation behind each oven.
