Why you should have your Kitchen installed by Professionals!

Sometimes people get carried away with the idea of saving $ by installing their Kitchen on their own. Here are a few of the cons...

You may be voiding your warranty.

Many products and materials’ Warranties state that the product and/or material must be installed by a qualified professional in accordance with the Original Manufacturer’s guidelines. This means by installing the products yourself you may be robbing yourself of any warranty.

Are the savings, if there are any, really worth it?

Over the years I have had numerous clients ask for assistance to fix, modify or complete DIY jobs which have just been more expensive then they were worth. Instead of purchasing quality goods from a local supplier the customer has outsourced flat-pack cabinets and attempted to create their dream kitchen only to end up with something farther away than what they started with. This has more often than not, resulted in more professional labour time to complete the job than if it had been installed by professionals to begin with.

After sales?

Did you buy your cabinets from a local supplier? If not, how quickly can you get replacement parts and materials? Can you even get them at all? You’d be surprised at how many times I’ve had to try and match doors etc from flat-pack kitchens as a customer has been unable to source a replacement. After Sales support will always be a top reason to shop local!

Will it fit the space?

Who designed the layout? Was it also a DIY job? Are you relying on set-sized cabinets to fit into your Kitchen Space? Did you allow for Filler panels and wings for scribing? No room is perfect and no room is the same, so would it not make sense to have the cabinetry custom-designed by a professional to suit your space and requirements?

In Conclusion...

I’ve listed a few of the downsides to DIY Kitchen installations and I could go on all day but I will leave you with this. Are you really getting what you want and are you getting it at a fair price?
