Renovating an old, dated kitchen adds value to both your home and your lifestyle BUT it is imperative to get the design and layout right first time as it will cost a lot to change and will be that way for many years to come. Dont go for any specific theme unless you are sure that you can pull it off. Often it is advisable to keep finishes nice but neutral and bring in themes with the use of accessories.
Older kitchens require additional power points which requires the services of a qualified electrician.
Also leave tricky plumbing to the professionals. Kitchen mixer taps are simple to install so you could probably do that yourself
Plan the project carefully and stick to the schedule keeping in mind that you wont be able to use your kitchen during this time…
Happy DIY

We needed a new set of mixer taps for our kitchen a.s.a.p. We found them on this site cheaper than the high street by far and they were delivered the next day. Excellent service.
