    Firstly, where are you based? Somebody maybe able to recommend someone.


    I'm assuming the cupboard you want knocked down is an old brick built one? If so it will need making good etc. You may wish to get a builder involved who will have access to all trades (electricians, plumbers, carpenters, plasterers etc). You may be better letting him get the kitchen for you from say Howdens or Magnet Trade. He will get a much better price than you will ever get!!
    Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.
