At the time of
visiting our showrooms or dealers, bring a rough sketch
of your kitchen with measurements in inches. This will
allow the designer to understand your needs and requirements.
Talk with the designer and explain briefly what you
have in mind for your kitchen. If you feel comfortable
with the designer, you should setup an appointment with
the designer to come in to your home and take accurate
measurements of the kitchen area.
Design
Consulting
The most important
aspect for a customer buying a new kitchen, is the design.
The designer will help answer questions like: What shape
will the kitchen have, how big is the family that will
use the kitchen and how often will the kitchen be used?
What will the kitchen be used for apart from cooking?
What kinds of appliances will I need? What kind of materials
and color do I prefer? This host of questions will enable
the designer to work with you to develop your dream kitchen.
This information collected along with the accurate measurements
of your kitchen area will help the designer to proceed
to the next phase.
CAD
(Computer Aided Design) Drawing
The measurements and
the information collected will allow the designer to prepare
2 – 3 computer design layouts or CAD(Computer Aided
Drawings) of what your kitchen may look like. At
this point you should provide your input about the placements
and usage of cabinets, accessories and hardware in the
kitchen.
Material
Selection
your choice should
be based on your requirements and kitchen layout. Ask
your salesperson the advantages and disadvantages and
costs of each and how your lifestyle will be affected
by each of the materials.
Estimate
Once the selection
of the material has been done or at least narrowed down
to a couple of options, ask for estimates of the work
to be done based on a set of plans and specifications,
as cost will be defined by material as well. Research
all of the alternatives in terms of product, style and
price.
Purchase
After the design
and material selection, you should review the quotes
and designs before signing any contract. Maintain
contact with your designer during the project regarding
the progress and deviations from the contract.

service by licensed general contractors from start to

The above have been written with the intention of describing
briefly the process of acquiring new kitchen cabinetry.

procedures.
