Identifying Kitchen?

Hi,
I've just purchase my first home and unfortunately noticed one of the kitchen cupboards is all swollen and peeling where water has been dripping from the combi-boiler. I need help identifying the brand of the kitchen so that I can see if I can source a replacement and was wondering whether anyone might be able to help?
The house is only 4 years old and it's a white gloss kitchen with an indented rectangle outline and single round silver knobs. I can't find anything particularly unique though did notice there's a pattern of what looks like grey 'e' shapes on the inside of all the cupboards if this sounds familiar?
Thanks,
Laura

Your first port of call should be the house builder. They should be able to tell you. Posting a picture might also help. It is impossible to say from your description.0

Sounds like 'Burford White a gloss' from Howdens.Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.0

Thanks for both of your replies. Unfortunately it was a private builder not a developer so I don't have any details. I've got a picture of the units just not the inside pattern I mentioned:

I've had a look at all the large brands but nothing jumps out at me as the same. The Howdens Burford White Gloss is slightly different as the whole middle section is recessed.0 -
Looking at your pic, it's not Howdens Burford white gloss.Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.0

Is the door damaged or just the carcase of the unit?0

newbielou is right, the e pattern is recognaisable as B&Q.
Looks like the "gloss white" range to me

People choose their own knobs with any kitchen, so you're onto a wee bit if a red herring if you're looking for a perfect match with handles.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

Ah perfect thank you both so much! This is the pattern:

I'll pop along to B&Q after work to check the Gloss White kitchen out you've linked to. The door is fine but will need a new carcass and possibly pelmet.0 -
you may be able to rescue the silver door knob from the swollen door and re-use on the replacement one0

If the door is OK then I wouldn't have thought it would matter where you get the carcass from, as long as it's the same size. I replaced 2 carcasses recently and they are generic. Different for the pelmet though.
Unless I'm missing something, in which case I'm happy to be corrected.3 stone down, 3 more to go0
