Successful kitchen planning starts with accurate and precise measurements. Careful preparation at this stage will ensure a smooth process leading to a kitchen that will fit perfectly.
Start by measuring the overall length of all walls and the height from floor to ceiling and record these in millimetres on your plan.
Measure each window and door by detailing the floor to sill, the height and width and the distance from the ceiling and room corners remembering to include the frame.
Check for obstructions such as radiators, meters, extractors or ventilation grilles and detail these on the plan.
Note the position of any stop taps, water and gas pipes and outside drain tha thte waste pipe runs into.
