Love your design, very much! We had a similar full refit recently, we also went we just knew in our gut were the right people when we met and they quoted. We had a few issues along a the way, re the house not their work, and they were fabulous.
We also used Howdens and now the designer and our contractors are doing loads of jobs together, I am still angling for commsssion!
They are returning for part two, the hall refurb (we have-old wood panelling), fitted office units(Howdens) in the small spare room and a new vanity in the downstairs laundry/ cloakroom.
We used check a trade for the contractors and reviewed Howdens designers on trustpilot, picked the one we have because she had good reviews. My brother also used Howdens and he does all this stuff himself and said they were well built and competitive. I also like that they always have the stuff in stock, so if a bit is wrong, damaged or missing the contractors can just pop and change it.

That’s exactly the reasons we went with Howdens 🧐

All our kitchen stuff was delivered end of October and so far the fitter has discovered the dishwasher, one upstand, hob splash back and a couple of cupboards end missing. Frustrating for him but quick phone calls and new items delivered from Howdens.
