New 'In Frame' Kitchen

You will not be disappointed by James in anyway. He provides 'old fashioned' manners, workmanship and fantastic value. My kitchen was a complicated design especially given the restrictions of an in frame kitchen. He planned to all out meticulously using all the available space. This has resulted in a kitchen that is bespoke in places and would definitely not have been completed in such a way or to such a high standard by a standard kitchen fitter. All I can say is do not hesitate to employ James and suggest anything you might like to have and if there is a way of doing it, James will find it. Also, he is a really nice guy who works extremely hard. Well done James :)

Fit new kitchen

A fantastic job done, James kept us updated at all stages of the work and went the extra mile to ensure the job was tailored to our requirements. We would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone looking for a new kitchen.

Kitchen re-fit and co-ordinated other tradesmen, electrician, plumber, tiler etc

If I could give 11/10 I would! Excellent standard of workmanship. When old kitchen was removed we found the planned kitchen needed to be altered, James solved it by building a stud wall and adjusting the original design. In all, a brilliant service. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending JRA Kitchens for a truly professional and quality finish. James co-ordinated the other tradesmen, plumber, plasterer, electrician etc, all the people he used on the kitchen worked well with him and gave us a brilliant end result. We are thrilled with the new kitchen.

New Utility Room fitted including bespoke cupboards

James is a true craftsman. If you have the opportunity to have any work done by James you will be thrilled with his workmanship, courtesy an accommodating nature. James has spent hours with me planning my design going through all the alternatives. He has completed the work to a superior standard and was able to build bespoke cupboards for me where pipes were showing and where my boiler is that goes way and beyond what a simple kitchen fitter would do. He is a furniture maker that is able to complete all tasks to a superlative standard, you are getting more than your moneys worth. The oak worktops are beautifully finished by hand and James is quite rightly very proud of his work. He is quiet and tidy and cannot be faulted in any respect in any of the work or customer care he has provided. He has even kindly taken some spare worktop to make me a chopping board in his workshop. Roll on September, he is already booked to do my kitchen! Thanks James, you are a star :)
