Important: Scope of Service

I specialize in cabinet assembly and preparation—building base units, wall units, and tall cabinets to manufacturer specifications. This service does NOT include plumbing, electrical work, or worktop cutting/installation. Your kitchen units will be built and ready for your primary fitter or plumber to complete the installation.


What I Assemble

Expert build layouts for structural kitchen components:

  • ✓ Base Cabinets: Under-counter carcase layouts featuring drawer systems, soft-close hardware configurations, and leveling legs.
  • ✓ Wall Units: Upper storage cabinets constructed with exact bracket positioning for reliable wall-anchor mounting layouts.
  • ✓ Tall Units: Structural larder cupboards, pantry setups, and dedicated integrated appliance housings.
  • ✓ Island Units: Freestanding islands and kitchen breakfast bars containing interior structural shelves.
  • ✓ Door & Drawer Fronts: Precision alignment, squaring, and hinge fine-tuning of all exterior finish components.

Why Precision Matters in Kitchens

Kitchen cabinets must be perfectly level and aligned for worktops to sit correctly. In Portsmouth's older properties with uneven floors, this requires careful micro-shimming and custom adjustment. I use precision spirit levels and laser alignment tools to ensure every unit sits exactly where it should—saving your fitter hours of structural correction down the line.
