The units are nearly finished
It’s been a long haul, but we have seen the almost finished product – and it is beautiful!
To recap, our wonderful contractor ran around several car body shop places asking them what they’d charge to refurbish and paint up our English Rose Kitchen units. Of the 4 he went to, 3 refused point blank to to have anything to do with them (and our original choice Farouk, after displaying much initial enthusiasm lost interest when the push came to the shove and quote us £150 per unit).
The fourth is an absolute perfectionist and has done and incredible job on what were our beaten up old units made still worse by our unauthodox transport methods.
The photo doesn’t do it justice at all I’m afraid. In real life the colour is vibrant and high gloss and we can’t thank them enough. Great prices too.

I too have an ebay English Rose kitchen in need of returning to full glory. Have taken it to 2 sets of people for stripping and powder coating-both were too daunted in the end, kept it a while then let me down. Big disappointment. Your success is comforting. Can’t quite face stripping myself and having them powder coated after, or trying to do them myself with many spray cans, or asking the expensive Source (these are my current options). I would bring them to London I think if your person would do them. Do you think you could give me a number and name? I’m in Sheffield. I should probably bite the bullet an keep trying to find a body shop here that doesn’t think I’m mad. Would you be able to tell me how much yours cost to have done?? Thanks. I’m so glad yours are so lovely now.
