How we work
Buying from another continent is mostly an exercise in not being surprised. Here is the whole sequence, what you receive at each stage, and how long each one actually takes.
Tell us the project — which rooms, roughly what quantities, and when you need it on site. A floor plan helps, but a sketch with measurements is enough to start. We will say straight away if something you want is outside what we do.

You receiveDesign work starts once a deposit is in. Your rooms come back as a drawing set with 3D renders — surface setting-out, cabinet elevations, and a window schedule listing each opening and its type. Revised until you are happy with it.
3D renders within 1 week
You receiveOnce the renders are approved, physical samples and colour cards go out — stone, board and door chips, and frame colours. Chosen against each other in daylight rather than across three screens, and against a design you have already seen.

You receiveYou approve the final drawing set and the itemised packing list. That signed set is exactly what we build — nothing is substituted without asking you first. The balance is settled in full before production begins.
Scope, finishes, quantities
You receiveTiles in stock ship as soon as the order is confirmed. Cabinetry is nested, cut, edged and drilled on our HOMAG lines. Windows are cut, assembled and glazed. You get photographs of your actual goods, not stock images of somebody else's order.
Tiles: from stock
Cabinetry: 45–90 days
Windows: 45 days
Everything is checked against the signed specification, photographed, labelled by room and loaded. You are welcome to send your own inspector, or come yourself — we will arrange access at any point in the process.

Documents
Paperwork is where an import goes wrong quietly. Ours is prepared before the container is sealed, not chased afterwards.
On board
Bill of lading, commercial invoice and a packing list itemised by room — so your installer can find one cabinet without opening nine cartons.
At the border
Certificate of origin and whatever else your broker asks for in your market. Tell us early and we prepare it with the order.
On site
Drawings, setting-out and fixing instructions, packed with the goods and emailed ahead so your trades can plan before the container lands.
