Hoping you can help me.
Basically I suffered some water damage and two base units and 2 wall units were damaged, the insurance are only going to replace on a like for like basis and for that I will get a max of £800.
My kitchen is a few years old and trying to match the units will be difficult. I hadn’t budgeted for a new kitchen so I am having to fit one into my plans.
I plan to do this buy buying an Ikea kitchen, this is because I like their kitchens, they have a good guarantee and I can collect them from the store myself so no waiting in and losing a days holiday for the delivery. The main reason tho is that I have an Ikea card and so I don’t have to have £2000 in my pocket.
I planned my kitchen using their online tool however I have discovered their units sit flush with the wall and so I have a problem with that the water and gas pipes are behind the current units.
Also the gas pipe to my cooker comes out of the wall where I planned to put my fridge freezer and so it can not go back against the wall. Is it possible to get this moved and would this be a big job?
Does anyone know any ways around the Ikea flush units?
I know it’s not ideal but it’s the only option I have at the moment so need to see how I can work around it. I have had 2 people round to quote me just to put the units in using my plan but none have installed Ikea kitchens before….
So if anyone is reading this and they live in Herts and have installed one before let me know!
Surly someone has an Ikea kitchen with good things to say not just bad!?
Appreciate your help!
