Kitchen Project in Costa Calma Fuerteventura

Costa Calma Fuerteventura Kitchen Project

Fuerte Building Services were contacted via our web site to do a simply work top replacement whilst the owners were on holiday over Christmas 2006!!

To the right is the picture of the small kitchen in the holiday apartment in Costa Calma. The reason for the replacement work top was that water had entered the joints and "blown" it! It may look like a clean sensible kitchen but it was more like a kitchen from hell!

A simply job!

Not!

After investigation on how the previous kitchen had been assembled and the poor design (note the sink in the far corner!) and consultation with the owners it was decided it was a new kitchen that was required not just a new work top!

Fortunately Fuerte Building Services had a kitchen in stock that could be adjusted to fit by our qualified carpenters. Now those that have had a kitchen fitted in Fuerteventura knows it is almost impossible to get the doors in less than 2 to 6 weeks. So we needed a solution...........Make them ourselves.

After we removed the kitchen units we found that the taps had been leaking for some time!

After a good clean up. The new Units were either assembled or made to fit.

The work top jig is used to ensure a perfect work top joint is achieved. Ensuring no unsightly silver strip is visible!

Arhh perfect!

The doors were made on site Due to the size of the photograph it struggles to show the detail of the og router pattern

Due to the budget the old appliances were used.

As the doors are real wood these will be stained or painted to the colour the owner wants

A lot more cupboard space! A new Sink (that doesn't leak!) Which was greatly appreciated by Sam and Julie

When the colour scheme has been decided this page will be updated!
