• Free CAD design visit with a written quotation before any work starts
• Blum and Hettich commercial-grade hardware on every drawer and mechanism
• 5-year labour and installation guarantee, plus a 2-year guarantee on products

• A written specification confirming the mechanisms, internal dimensions and hardware agreed at the CAD stage, so what's fitted matches what was designed rather than a substitution made on the day
• Adjustable internal shelving reworked to modern jar, tin and small-appliance sizes rather than fixed shelf spacing designed decades ago for a different kind of kitchen storage
• A final check of every drawer, hinge and mechanism under load before we leave, not just a visual look-over

• Structural work such as moving walls, relocating pipework or rewiring beyond straightforward appliance connections - this gets quoted and scheduled separately as building work
• The appliances themselves (ovens, fridges, wine coolers) - we build the storage around them but supplying the appliance is a separate line unless it's part of a full kitchen package
• Replacing worktops or splashbacks - only needed if a redesign changes cut-outs or unit widths, and would be priced on top
• A full new kitchen fit-out - if you need new carcasses, doors and a new layout throughout, that's priced and delivered as a full kitchen project rather than a storage retrofit
• Making good decoration beyond the immediate wall or floor area disturbed by removing old units - our master plasterer can take this on, but it's costed as an extra
• Replacing a single hinge, runner or shelf on its own, without redesigning the storage around it, is a smaller repair job and can usually be quoted and fitted as a standalone visit rather than a full retrofit
• Fitted wardrobes, home offices or staircases use the same joinery team but are scoped and quoted as their own project rather than folded into a kitchen storage retrofit

4. Fitting, cupboard by cupboard -- Because most storage jobs are a retrofit rather than a full strip-out, our City & Guilds qualified joiners work through your cupboards in an order agreed with you, so you're rarely without a usable kitchen overnight, adjusting each drawer and mechanism before moving to the next run.
5. Testing and clearing away -- Every drawer, hinge and mechanism is tested under load and adjusted before we leave, old units and offcuts are cleared the same day under our own registered waste carrier licence, and the work is backed by a 5-year labour and installation guarantee plus a 2-year guarantee on products.
6. Written specification sign-off -- Before manufacture starts you get a written specification confirming exact mechanisms, internal dimensions and hardware, so what turns up to fit is what was agreed at the CAD stage rather than a substitution decided on the day.
7. Aftercare -- If a drawer needs a small adjustment once it's bedded in, or a hinge needs tightening after a few months of daily use, that's covered under the same guarantee as the rest of the job rather than treated as a separate call-out.

Cost depends mostly on whether we're retrofitting your existing cabinets or building new carcasses from scratch. Retrofitting current units with internal drawer systems, corner carousels and soft-close mechanisms typically costs around 30% of a full kitchen replacement, because the cabinet boxes, worktop and plumbing stay untouched and the labour is confined to the internals and hardware. A full run of new carcasses with pull-out larders, appliance garages or a dedicated wine zone costs more, and scales with the number of units and the mechanisms specified - Blum and Hettich soft-close runners, motorised pull-down shelving and climate control all add to the price over basic adjustable shelving. Finance options are available if you'd rather spread the cost. Because every kitchen's cupboard sizes, pipework and electrics are different, we don't work from a fixed price list - a free home visit lets us measure accurately and give you a written quotation before anything is booked in. Bin and recycling pull-outs, integrated charging drawers and motorised lift systems for wall cupboards all sit above a basic soft-close drawer box on price, roughly in that order, though the only way to know what a specific kitchen needs is the home visit rather than a general guide like this one. If a cupboard turns out, once it's opened up, to need a hinge, runner or shimming beyond a straightforward retrofit, that gets flagged and costed before any further work continues rather than folded into the original figure without your sign-off, and the written quotation itself is free regardless of which route - retrofit or new carcase - ends up suiting your kitchen. A single cupboard converted to soft-close internal drawers sits at the lower end of what a retrofit can cost, while a full run of corner carousels, pantry pull-outs and appliance garages across a kitchen sits toward the upper end of that 30% guide figure - most jobs land somewhere between the two, depending on how many cupboards are involved and which mechanisms they need.

A Blum or Hettich soft-close runner needs a specific internal cabinet width and a reasonably square carcase to sit properly, and forcing a generic "fits most cupboards" drawer kit into an undersized or slightly out-of-true box is why so many retrofitted drawers stick or drop within a year of being fitted. We measure each cabinet on site rather than working from dimensions given over the phone, and only ever spec mechanisms rated for the load and the exact box they're actually going into, fitted by City & Guilds qualified joiners rather than judged by eye and adjusted with a shim if it doesn't quite sit right.

Cupboard lighting, a hob that needs reconnecting after a unit's shifted, a patch of plaster left where an old carcase came out - none of that gets treated as somebody else's job to chase up once our joiners have finished. A Part P approved electrician from our own team wires in any lighting or USB point, a Gas Safe registered engineer handles the hob reconnection, and our master plasterer finishes any patching the removal has left behind, each one scoped into the retrofit itself rather than a separate call you'd have to arrange with a contractor we don't employ. The same applies to what's left over once the cupboards are done: old units and packaging go under our own registered waste carrier licence before we leave, so there's no skip to book and nothing sitting in the drive waiting for you to sort out.

Every retrofit starts the same way as a full kitchen: a free, no-obligation design visit with CAD visuals, followed by a written quotation before anything is booked in, so the mechanisms, dimensions and cost are agreed on paper rather than decided as the job goes along. Our registered office is at 49A Avondale Road in Rotherham, and that's the same company name on the written quotation, the guarantee paperwork and the waste carrier licence - not a separate trading name for smaller jobs that's harder to trace back if something needs sorting after the event.

Once the new floor space around Bessacarr, Wheatley, or the market towns of Bawtry and Tickhill has been plastered and is ready for cabinets, the kitchen going into it quite often sits under a sloped section of roofline or a boxed-in structural beam, and a standard-height larder or corner carousel simply won't clear either one. That's exactly the kind of detail we'd rather catch on the home visit, tape measure in hand, than assume from a set of architect's drawings finished months before the plastering was.

Mexborough, Conisbrough and Denaby throw up a different measuring problem, and it comes up often enough in these pit-village streets that our joiners know to check for it before they even open a tape measure: plenty of the older terraces here were built with a proper chimney breast recess rather than a flat run of wall, and a standard-width carousel dropped into that recess just leaves an ugly gap down one side that a shop-bought unit was never designed to fill. We build the corner storage to the shape of the recess itself instead, which is the kind of made-to-measure joinery a catalogue range can't offer at any price.

Wherever the job sits within that coverage area, the process doesn't change with the postcode: a free home visit and CAD design come first, a written quotation follows before anything is booked in, and old units and packaging get cleared under our own registered waste carrier licence on the day rather than left for you to arrange separately. Jobs further out into Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire or Hull follow exactly the same sequence - the only thing distance changes is how the visit and fitting dates get scheduled around the rest of South Yorkshire, not the standard of measuring or the mechanisms that go in once the cupboards are opened up.

The registered office at Avondale Road in Rotherham is also where any paperwork for a storage job gets held on file, which matters if a fitting needs revisiting a year or two after the event - the same written specification agreed at the CAD stage is what a returning joiner works from, wherever in the coverage area the original job was fitted.

A home visit and CAD design cost nothing and carry no obligation - we measure your actual cupboards, check what a Blum or Hettich mechanism will fit properly, and put together a written quotation before a single drawer gets ordered. Get in touch to arrange a visit and see the layout on screen before you commit to anything, whether that's one corner cupboard or a full run of storage across the kitchen.
