Any renovation work to a building large or small is going to involve a number of trades and suppliers.
The company “Premier Kitchens” which is part of a larger Sydney construction company “Living Space”, recently offered to provide and supervise both on and off site the new re-design of our Kitchen and all the trades and services, apart from the choice and supply of all the Kitchen “white goods / machines and equipment” and the new flooring work which we required and therefore organised.
However, “Premier” were able to offer advice on these latter two items when necessary.
That’s one reason why my wife and I chose “Premier Kitchens” for our recent Kitchen renovation which was regarded by “Premier” as a medium or average sized residential Kitchen job.
They offered the supply and co-ordination of most of the work.
Another reason was because we were allocated a “Living Space” Project Manager, a Mr. Fred Stafford who was invaluable, in addition to being very experienced and professional at all times, during his personal co-ordination of the works.
Fred initially provided a detailed Schedule of Works which was kept to and he even managed to save time during the job.
He monitored the job on a daily basis as necessary and always returned our calls promptly.
We were also very impressed with the professional work standards and quality of the variety of craftsmen and tradesmen Ed, Jess, Riley, Mike, Lee, and Mitch to mention a few who worked at various times on our site.
We particularly valued their consideration shown to us as we were “living” on our upper floor above our building site throughout the job.
Towards the end of the job, there was an unfortunate incident with the plumbing re-installation which could have been far more serious.
Again Fred arrived immediately with the necessary staff including one of the Directors of his company to quickly assess the situation and swiftly resolve to the satisfaction of all concerned.
We would also like to credit the design and initial input of the Kitchen to Joelle at the Penshurst Street Showroom and Peter the Manager of “Premier Kitchens”.
Although my wife and I are not new to building and renovation work, a couple of points perhaps to note are that Kitchen joinery cabinets of a standard that “Premier” offer, do take at least a couple of weeks or so to fabricate in the factory, and only after their installation can the bench/worktops be accurately measured on-site.
A further two week period is often then required to fabricate the bench-top, especially if it is man-made.
Finally, the saying “You get what you pay for” is often a reality.
In our case that was the case.
“Premier Kitchens” was not the cheapest quote, but the quality, craftsmanship, and co-ordination was definitely worth paying for. Well done, and thank you again to all involved.
