The wall type decides the fixing, and getting that right is the difference between a shelf that holds books and one that does not.</p><h3>Do I need a whole new kitchen if a few doors are damaged?</h3><p>No. Individual doors and units can be replaced, and worn hinges swapped, for a fraction of the cost of a new kitchen.</p><h3>Can you fit shelves in an alcove?</h3><p>Yes. Alcoves are rarely square, so each shelf is measured and cut to fit rather than bought to a standard size.</p><h3>Do you supply the shelving?</h3><p>You can buy it, or we can. If we supply it, the materials are charged on top of the labour.</p><h3>Can you assemble flat pack units too?</h3><p>Yes.
