Before you compare quotes

Ask each shortlisted company to confirm the same scope and timeline. Avoid comparing quotes without checking what is included in disposal, electrics and finishing; also avoid ordering cabinets before final measurements are confirmed and forgetting temporary cooking arrangements while the room is out of use.
