Measuring Guide ... Evil Items

Lastly we are now going to check out some particularly unpleasant items that are intent on wrecking your kitchen design.

Unless discovered at an early stage these evil items have a nasty habit of appearing (or being present) during the installation of your kitchen, often forcing a complete re-design ... after you have purchased it!

Featuring, in no particular order of nastiness:

  1. The mains water stopcock
  2. Central heating boiler
  3. The hole in the floor where your water drains out
  4. Concealed pipe work
  5. Concealed manholes (in new extensions)
  6. Gas meter
  7. Electric meter
  8. Exterior rainwater pipes
  9. Interior / Exterior Soil & Vent pipes
  10. Concrete floors
  11. No gas supply
  12. No 30A electrical supply
  13. Low window sill
  14. Thin "dry line" walls
  15. Damp walls
  16. Rotten floor
  17. Central heating radiators
  18. The main kitchen light switch
