Comments (16)We're really far from there too (south coast) but fortunately my partner works up north so he popped in on his way to Newcastle. To be honest, he only popped in to get an idea if quality in comparison to places like wren, howdens etc. The quality was definitely better (we went for the stanbury). We had builders in at the time so I just got them to measure then deducted 50mm from each side to account for uneven walls. Definitely research your fitter. We used our carpenter and to be honest he made the kitchen look really expensive. Would definitely recommend getting your worktops through them. They outsource to a stone Mason who comes and measures after the kitchen has been installed so you don't have to do this part. From measuring to fitting, worktops took 2 weeks. We saved about £1500 on silestone quartz by going through them. We haven't quite finished by here's some photos to give you an idea of quality x...See MoreKitchen renovation/ updating help please
Comments (12)What sort of look are you going for? If it were my kitchen I would repaint in a neutral throughout, cornforth white or similar. If the existing cupboard doors are white I would leave them (can't tell if white or cream in the photo) If they are cream I'd consider painting them either neutral or possibly a deep blue. Replace the handles with a cup style or a D pull in a metal to complement whichever metal accent you decide to have on the lighting. I'd replace the worktops with a high quality slim laminate, I have duropal calacatta and it often gets mistaken for real marble. I'd be tempted to have an upstand instead of tiles but possibly an antique mirror behind the range. If changing the worktop I'd get rid of the curved open shelves on the base run as I think this dates the kitchen. I'd keep the 12-pane door but paint it black and replace the handle with a black one to mimic a crittall door. I'd reduce the number of open shelves to one each side but take the one on the door wall full width to reach the adjoining wall. Replace the lighting - have a look at Matalan. They often have similar styles to Jim Lawrence. Have a look at DeVol kitchens for inspiration if you like that style....See MoreJudith Wright Design
