Scope of Service

We will check the kitchen against the information provided and will call you if there is any discrepancy to confirm your instruction to proceed. Please ensure you are available to receive our call, if you are not available we will continue with the service.

If required we will provide a report that will include a check of the kitchen prior to and after removal.

Removal of Kitchens

It is fair to say that very few kitchens are designed and installed with re-use in mind, however, the good news is most quality kitchens can be removed and reinstalled without issue. In most cases this occurs without any complications, however there are certain aspects of kitchen design which can make removal for re-use a little more problematic.

Worktops:

All Stone worktops (natural or composite)

In the majority of cases, worktops are removed without damage as every reasonable effort and skill is taken. However, unseen hairline cracks or excessive adhesive may cause issues, therefore, all worktops are disclaimed. This includes for worktop splash backs and upstands.
In most cases minor damage can be fixed by a local stone supplier.

Acrylic (Corian or similar)

In order to dismantle and transport it is normal to expect this to have to be cut. An acrylic worktop specialist will be required to re-install.

Laminate: It is virtually impossible to remove a laminate worktop without damage due to the bond on the joints being stronger than the worktop itself. Therefore, these worktops are always disclaimed.

Splashbacks, upstands, window cills and the like are not guaranteed.

We do not check the working condition of appliances and accept no liability for appliances not working

Painted Kitchen Furniture

Whilst every skill and care is taken during removal, minor damage can occur to painted finishes and decorative elements such as finishing beads, decorative trims etc.
