It is quite common for a kitchen designer to want to meet you for the first time at your home. A kitchen designer will likely begin by asking questions about how you use your kitchen space and then apply their architectural and technological expertise to your vision of a dream kitchen to turn it into a space that serves your needs. This may involve contracting other professionals, including experienced kitchen installation specialists, plumbers and electricians to carry out specialist work, so rely on your designers’ industry contacts and know-how. Many kitchen design companies will carry out all the work including kitchen fitting in-house, so you would only need to hire and deal with one firm.
