Disgusting predatory behaviour. Avoid.
We bought what we hoped would be our dream kitchen and it turned into a nightmare.
It all comes down to the "additional services", which was explained to us in store to be things such as tiles and flooring. This is not the case.
When our kitchen fitter left, saying the job was completed, we were left with an oven on the floor in a different room, a sink/tap that wasn't plumbed in, a hob and extractor that wasn't wired and no usable sockets.
Calling up to question this I was met with absolute contempt on the phone, and told that I might have well as rang Tesco because the store were unable to help.
After 3 weeks, and upwards of 10 phone calls I was told that the installation of the oven, hob, extractor, sink and tap were additional services that we had not taken out.
This is true, we hadn't taken them out, because not only was it never mentioned to us, but any reasonable person would assume that a kitchen fitting service would leave you with a working kitchen.
I was advised by wren to find my own, third party, kitchen fitter to come and finish the job.
In addition to this, the upstands that were installed were so tall that they touched the bottom of the sockets. This meant you couldn't plug anything into any socket.
As part of the same 3 week ordeal, I was told that sometimes mistakes like this can happen, and that it was my responsibility to ensure the kitchen design team had got it correct. Yes, it was my job, as the customer, to ensure that the supposed professional kitchen designers had done their job correctly.
Not a penny in refund was offered for the installation service, if you can even call it that.
We were left no choice in the end but to find additional, more competent, businesses to install the appliances, plumbing and relocate all the sockets.
We should have gone elsewhere.
