Watch the team's progress:
Current kitchen is small, with very old and dated cabinets. Here, the team is on a site visit to measure the kitchen and understand the layout. clockwise from left to right: Sean, Matt, Richard, and Jack.
More space will be gained by removing the wall just visible on the near left side of the photo.
The team is working on the design of the kitchen.
Setting the ladder bases that the cabinets will rest on. They must be level!
Sean has the pantry and refrigerator cabinet carcasses assembled. Due to the limited ceiling height, there isn't room for cabinets above the fridge, so we've added pullout wicker baskets for storage.
