Templating Terms
Please review the templating terms. The submit button will appear once you've finished reading and scrolled to the bottom.
Please check the following points to help your template run smoothly. We require you to ensure that someone is on site for the template to sign off the details including sink and hob positions.
Your Kitchen
- All existing worktops must be removed.
- Sinks, hobs, and taps must be removed.
- All base units must be fixed to the walls intheir final position and must be perfectly level.
- Please ensure units have no movement as this may crack the joins between your work-surfaces.
- Please do not move any units once our template has been taken.
- All end panels must be fixed in position. You must have an end panel between each freestanding appliance.
- Any boxing in of pipework etc. must be completed if you are having up-stands.
- If you are installing a cupboard on the work-surface this needs to be available in the kitchen for us to measure or the walls need to be clearly marked where the up-stands should start and stop.
Sinks
- Under-mounted steel, ceramic or cast-iron sinks must be supported in the base unit on a framework/cradle.
- Under-mounted sinks must be supplied with a cut out template. Please check your sink has been supplied with the correct template for the cutout you require.

Window sills
- If you are having a windowsill installed, your old windowsill must be removed prior to templating.
- The windowsill area must be a sound surface to enable us to install/level & glue your new windowsill in place.
Breakfast bars/Seating areas
