How We Work

First Consultation 

At your first consultation, you will meet the craftsman who will design, build and install your project. They are there to listen, to understand what you want and like in terms of style, design and materials. In the case of a kitchen or home office, they are there to learn how you intend to use and live in the room.

Design

Back to Basics will interpret your requirements and produce an initial design proposal. Following further consultations, this initial design will be refined until the perfect solution for you has been reached. No two designs are ever the same, as no two customers are ever the same. Back to Basics does not hold a range of pre-determined styles or solutions as each project is designed specifically to each customer's unique requirements.

Build

Once the design has been agreed, the project becomes live, the materials are ordered and the project timelines set. We use only top quality materials, with all timber carefully selected to suit the requirements and tastes of each customer.

• Both carcasses and frames are hand-made in our workshops rather than bought-in ready made

• Kitchen surfaces can be in a wide range of materials, e.g. granite, wood or stainless steel

• Drawer runners are high quality metal, running on concealed roller bearings

• All our drawers are dovetailed and made from solid wood

• Drawers and door panels are carefully matched for grain and colour

• Our policy is to source timber from sustainable sources

Installation

Each project is delivered and fitted by the craftsman who designed and built it, ensuring that the same consideration and care that went into building your project is carried through into this final chapter. For kitchens, we can also supply appliances and arrange for electrical and plumbing work.
