Our kitchen is small 3.2m x 3m with 2 doorways but im still into the kitchen for just shy of 10k and ive done all the work myself, not bad for a grease monkey impo.
Im so happy i sit and admire what ive done of a night,ok i started in june and had a months holiday in the middle, but im down to grout 2nd a tosh of paint on the ceiling and that pesky frame and im done!.
And wifey is looking forward to all.my tools going back to the shed and having her house straight before the xmas rush.
That must be so satisfying
Enjoy putting your feet up and those tools back in the shed

Things are really starting to take shops now.
I know what you mean about it taking shape. Today has shown just how much can be done as we edge closer to Friday

Wish we had been in Florida and left them to it

It’s very stressful but it’s well worth it in the end. I love my kitchen.

That is such a positive way to look at it all - we have already just stood in the kitchen for over an hour tonight, can't cook anything but I have to admit we are all falling in love with the place - seems so much bigger than what was there before and that is such an amazing feeling


Thanks everyone for sharing the first few days with me

We were like loopyloloo and had ours done while we were in Florida

But we did have walls knocked out all walls stripped back to brick and new ceilings and replastered so we were glad to be out of it!

But really love it

Have enjoyed being around to see what is happening and also to answer quick questions he has had about different things.
There is something so good about having a kitchen to be proud of

Thank you
It is really coming together and we are needing a decision about paint etc - did suggest we wait until the flooring goes in wasn't met with approval!

Day 4 is now included in the main thread update - thanks to everyone for reading

Aw thank you - nice when someone else sees it like we did and have to admit it looks even better than it did in the showroom
