One more push and it should be finished.......

After what seems like an eternity, we can now start to see the light at the end of the tunnel.  Over the past couple of weeks major progress has been made installing the final fix items in and around the kitchen.

The new doors now actually work as expected, it even opens from the outside!

The new patio finishes of the entrance area from outside.

Two single sinks have been installed, they will be "under mounted".  First time I have every used a "router" to ensure the sinks sat flush with the worktop when it's installed.

The granite worktops have been installed and polished up, they look stunning, highly recommended.

















Appliances are now being installed, induction hob finished with a one piece glass curved extractor unit.

The floor tiles are now the last major component to be completed.  Unfortunately they were involved in a road traffic accident!  They did not survive.  New ones are now being delivered from Spain!
 

Kitchen Units - Installed

After two days of fitting most of the kitchen units have been installed.  We have picked white high gloss units with a handle less design.  A black granite worktop will be installed on top to finish the kitchen units.

 A "bank" of appliances are soon to be installed

The kitchen units were purchased from Magnet Express.  They seem to be of a high quality and were delivered pre assembled. Magnet Express offered a good price on the kitchen but a word of caution their customer service could be improved!

Lights installed and 2nd fix electrics

 

We have installed a Lutron 3106 Grafik eye lighting system to enable full dimmable control over 6 different light "zones" in the new kitchen and dinning area.  The image above shows the main control box.

Phillips LED "master" range of LED dimmable bulbs have been installed.  They seem to be working well with the Lutron unit.
