Howdens/B and Q/Homebase questions

Morning all

Two quick queries which I'd be grateful if anyone has the answers to.

1) Are Homebase's standard kitchen cabinets/doors the same size as B and Q's? Someone told me the door sizes at B and Q are 715mm (h), but that Homebase are 704mm? Am replacing the doors on my bases units, but need to install completely new wall units.

2) Howdens - I understand that they are trade only, but I if I call them will they give me a quote (after a home visit), and then I take the quote to my joiner who will actually put in the order?

    The last time I did this they sent the quote to the builder.
    Mama read so much about the dangers of drinking alcohol and eating chocolate that she immediately gave up reading.
