How long does the kitchen manufacturing process take?
In general terms, the process from the initial quote through to your finished kitchen will take somewhere in the timeline of 6-8 weeks. This of course depends on time and product availability. This meaning in general terms, you could be without a working kitchen for 1-2 weeks (dependant on
