I am really delighted with my kitchen.  The team were very helpful during the whole planning process and I ended up with exactly what I wanted, without having to pay a designer price.

 Rachael Robathan July 2010

Our house is a very odd shape but Fraser James came up with some really good advice and options, which work.  Even the dog was considered and his own area allowed for in the design.  They did what was asked and more!  We only have good things to say about them… really helpful, friendly and reliable; always turning up when they said they would and great attention to detail.

The kitchen is now over six years old but still looks good.  We’re now extending the house and have asked them back for bespoke wardrobes.  We are more than happy to recommend Fraser James to anybody.

Ben and Abby Cohen June 2010

 We were very impressed by the “nothing is a problem” attitude and the willingness to allow me to make suggestions.  Having already been put off by one so called ‘bespoke’ kitchen company, it was an absolute pleasure to have Fraser James make our kitchen, and I have no problem recommending them to anyone else.

 Thank you Peter, Nathan, and Yvonne for everything you have done.

 Sarah and Roy Baker June 2010

We love our kitchen!

It works really well to suit our lifestyle, it’s a very sociable space. The designers really took the time to take into consideration what we wanted. Having one real chef in the house, the design enables us to sit round the work area, with a nice glass of wine whilst the cooking is in progress. The Staff at Fraser James were open, and patient, and went along with any changes we made during the process. It really was good to go to the workshop to see our furniture being made, and the installation was brilliant! We are very happy with the outcome.

Jenny Adams April 2010

We met with Peter O’Neill at Fraser James with a view to getting ideas for a new kitchen, and after speaking to other companies, we felt most comfortable with Fraser James. Their ethics that they provide a hassle free project from beginning to end with after care definitely proved to be the case. When the project was running they were very accommodating with any changes that were subsequently made, thereby resulting in the exact kitchen we were looking for. The added bonus was that Fraser James seemed to fit in with our time constraints without any problems. I can conclude that with Fraser James from the minute we met them for the first time to them taking out the old kitchen through to putting in the last spice rack, it was what they had promised, and was a fun project!

We would be happy to recommend Fraser James at any stage.

Caroline – March 2010

Beautiful kitchen built by craftsmen, who never failed to listen and discuss concerns and possible alterations. The result, a kitchen made to measure….Perfect!

R & S Chalcraft January 2010

It has been a delight to have Fraser James fitting our kitchen, we are thrilled with the result. The standard of workmanship is extremely high, and the attention to detail, and customer service has been fantastic.

Di Cripps January 2010

The kitchen you built for us has been a source of joy for years now. It was well planned then, and has been admired by everyone who walks through the door. Best of all, we know we didn’t know what we wanted, and you led us up the right path to something beautiful. Like I said, the whole house is feeling a bit tired again after a lot of years now, and we are slowly re-painting, re-carpeting and cleaning tiled floors…but the kitchen furniture has never needed more than a wipe down. It’s amazing to me how it has lasted so well for so long….it was a great paint finish! Now I know how to find you on the web, I can lead people on to you!

Regina Cockerill January 2010

Fraser James created a most fantastic library for our house in Italy. It was a huge piece of work but what they designed, fashioned, and built with loving care, was beyond our wildest expectations. Their craftsmanship and attention to detail is breathtaking! We couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

Lord Guy Black December 2009

Fraser James came highly recommended to us by a friend who’d had firsthand knowledge of their quality and professionalism, so we decided to follow her advice, and contacted them to discuss our requirements. I am delighted to say that from design to implementation they have lived up to their reputation. Everyone involved in the removal and construction, tried their best to keep the disruption and mess to the minimum. They were all friendly and helpful, any problems were sorted out quickly and professionally. John’s work and attitude in particular, helped to make the process go smoothly. The end result was a kitchen that works really well, is of excellent quality, and looks fabulous.

We would have no problem in recommending Fraser James Furniture Ltd.

Gloria Vinning December 2009

Dear Pete

Thank you very much for the way your team fitted our new kitchen that we are delighted with.

I would not hesitate in recommending you to any one that is looking to replace their existing kitchen, with a new quality ‘made to measure one,’ I look forward to you popping over for a coffee in the New Year, and take a few photos for your website and brochures, as I am sure that other people would love it as much as we do.

Alan Noon December 2009

Fraser James were recommended to us by friends. We highly recommend Pete and his fantastic team, because they are totally professional, very helpful and provide you with 1st class workmanship that is second to none. If you need further evidence about Fraser James work, come and look at our kitchen and see for yourself, the finished product is truly amazing.

Rachel Griffin November 2009

We thought long and hard when planning and designing our kitchen. We chose Fraser James having seen their work in friend’s houses. They have given us exactly what we wanted, in fact our new kitchen has exceeded our expectations, we love it!

The process was stress free and enjoyable thanks to a very professional and courteous team.

Pete & Angela Zimmerman November 2009

Dear Pete

This is possibly the longest overdue thank you card I have ever written! I have been wanting to send this for over a year now and finally here it is! A massive, massive thank you to you and everyone involved with the making of our beautiful kitchen, it is fantastic! It truly is the heart of our home, we haven’t seen the rest of our house for quite some time! A year on after installation, it is still looking great and works really well. It hasn’timproved my ability to cook, but one day I hope to be as professional in the kitchen as your team has been in creating it.

I am so sorry Pete, for never thanking you properly sooner, you have looked after us so well and Adam has always found time to pop in and sort out any minor bothers, so a big thank you to Adam as well. Truly love the ‘nothing is a problem’ attitude you all have, very refreshing! I do hope that our paths cross again one day, if not on a business level, (although I do hope so), then on a social one – we have an open door policy here, so if you are passing pop in for a coffee!

All our love & thanks to you all.

Lucy & Carl Brennan October 2009

Sales visits…. you know how they are, lots of great ideas, lots of big promises, and lots of enthusiasm. “We can do this” and “we can do that”, “we will guarantee our price,” we will work with your builders, nothing will be a problem”, and so you sign up. Obviously excited, but at the same time dreading the disappointment that will inevitably follow, delays, excuses changes etc. Workmanship not quite as good as you had been led to believe, battles to get things done and the million calls you need to make to get the job finished properly.

So we contacted Fraser James, and there were no disappointments, not one. Lots of promises had been made by Peter O’Neill, big promises, but each and every single one was met, on time and without fuss. All the extra bits that would be ‘no problem’ were just that ‘no problem’. There were no phone calls required to get things finished, in fact it was the other way round, Fraser James calling me to make sure I was happy, unbelievable! And so is the workmanship.

The whole experience of dealing with Fraser James was so much better than we could ever have imagined. Adam our fitter was the sort of person you would want to employ yourself to do anything! Helpful! Professional, considerate, willing (and tidy!) The full list would go on and on and on…

Fraser James is a great company to deal with, in fact the very best company we have ever dealt with, honestly….

Steven & Anne- Marie Hunter July 2009

What a great decision to have Fraser James design and supply our new kitchen, we absolutely love it! The service provided from our initial meeting with Pete, right through to the completed product was superb.The craftsmanship and attention to detail is second to none, and the whole project was handled in a personal and professional manner. Last but not least, what a great team! We must mention in particular Adam and Nathan, nothing was ever too much trouble for either of them.So again thank you, we will certainly recommend you and definitely use you again in the future.

Fraser James delivered a kitchen beyond our expectations. The detail and quality of workmanship is superb, and all the Fraser James team made every effort to ensure our complete satisfaction. Well done!

Cecilia & Alan Devine

 Just a short note to say how very pleased I have been, not only with the quality of the workmanship, but also the way the whole project was undertaken and followed through. The kitchen was well planned with exceptional attention to detail/finish and now completed looks fantastic and works great.

Your team worked well, working with them as the kitchen was installed was a real pleasure, I could not have asked for more co operation…….We almost miss them!!

I can assume it is safe to pay you these compliments now, with all the payments made, in case you are tempted to put the prices up, on the basis of my complete satisfaction with the job?? Joke joke!!

Feel free to refer anyone for a recommendation

Thanks again to you and your team

Fraser James were superb in all aspects of our kitchen rebuild. From the initial visit through to completion, the service provided was second to none. The quality of the finished product exudes the excellence of craftsmanship of their staff, in whom they obviously and rightly have, great pride. We would unhesitatingly recommend Fraser James.

Steve Moore

Just a few lines to you and your staff to say thank you very much for our exceptionally fantastic handmade kitchen, we are exceedingly pleased with the final result. Throughout the upheaval your staff were very considerate in making the process of fitting a new kitchen as convenient as possible, everything was left at the end of a day’s work in a clean and tidy condition.

In addition, we would like to thank in particular, Nathan and Adam for their assistance in achieving the final objective. Nothing was too much trouble for either of them and they offered advice as appropriate.

Finally we would not hesitate in recommending ‘Fraser James ltd’ to friends and people we meet in everyday life.

Marion & Peter Waller

We wanted a kitchen with the ‘Wow Factor’ and we certainly got one!

We cannot fault in any way, the service, the quality of workmanship, or the quality of staff and the courtesy shown to us at all times. In particular, their communication with the customer on a daily basis was superb – we were always kept informed of who would be arriving and what would be happening at every stage of the installation. Their planning and timescale was precise – almost a military operation!

Having now had the great honour of using my kitchen for a few weeks, I would not change a single thing and I would not hesitate in recommending Fraser James.

Gillian & Clive Jarrett

My wife and family are delighted with your work. Needless to say the kitchen is now the best room in our new house; we certainly made a good decision in selecting you to build it for us.

Mali, Stuart and Andrew Birt

Just wanted to drop you a line to let you know how pleased we are with our new kitchen.

We appreciated the excellent advice you gave on design and layout and many of our visitors have commented on the excellent finish and attention to detail. On reflection we are pleased that we invested that little bit extra for a bespoke design finish and we have no doubt that the quality of our kitchen has enhanced the desirability of our home and should we ever move, we will certainly be asking you to come and do our next kitchen!

Please also pass on my thanks to all your staff who were both friendly and hardworking throughout.

Fraser James had already done the kitchen in the house we had bought, but we wanted to change the main kitchen slightly and add a large utility / kitchen and laundry room. Our dealings with everyone involved were excellent and I would highly recommend them.

We have ended up with exactly what we wanted and nothing was too much trouble, especially as we were altering an existing kitchen.

We also had a free-standing oak dresser made which has been a great success.

Debbie Inchley
June 2008

Our Fraser James experience started sometime before the project was due to commence, simply because we had a large house extension to build first!

We had contacted a number of kitchen companies, and had looked at various designs layouts and finishes, before we whittled our ‘preferred’ companies down to a small shortlist. We chose Fraser James because they offered us a no pressure approach from the offset. We particularly liked the staff at Fraser James, everyone we spoke to was relaxed, and pleasant, and always got back to us when we called. We never felt under any pressure and we never felt that we were being ‘sold to’ with Fraser James, as we did with some of the other kitchen companies we‘d contacted.

Extending our family home to incorporate a large kitchen meant that we had a totally blank canvass to work from. Whilst I’d found this an initially daunting prospect it certainly didn’t present a problem to their design team, and Paul and I worked together on my scrappy ideas and vision and his practical and imaginative expertise.

We really wanted to reflect the eclectic feel of our old Coach House conversion by mixing the traditional design with some contemporary touches, which we managed, for example, through the cupboard handles so giving a ‘twist’ to convention!

The construction was fairly straightforward from our point of view as the room was separate from the rest of the house and the guys just got on with it! Everybody in the team was really pleasant and any issues arising were dealt with. We felt throughout the project that our input, feedback and comments were listened to and valued, and believed that Fraser James are truly committed to customer satisfaction.

Unsure of the finish we were again led by the design team at Fraser James and we chose colours that hadn’t been in the frame at all! We absolutely love the mix of colours suggested by Peter and Paul, which has given us a really chilled relaxed but very welcoming feel to our fabulous kitchen!

We have a dream kitchen which exceeded our expectations and a few months on we still look at it and say ‘wow!’

Karen Geoghugan

Thank you so very much for our gorgeous kitchen, which looks even better than we had hoped!

Your enthusiastic and flexible approach has helped us immensely and we can’t thank you enough for your patience and understanding throughout our ‘ordeal’.

The kettle is always on so we’d love to see you anytime.

Sally and Rob McNaughton August 2007

Kevin and I love the feel, look and general simplicity of our very lovely kitchen. We needed something that could make the kitchen both functional and a really warm family room, where we can read the papers, entertain and enjoy the experience of cooking – which we really do. With the island we have plenty of surfaces and plenty of cupboard space so everything can be located easily. Peter and Paul really made sure we had every little detail; knife drawer, saucepan cupboard etc plus easy handles on drawers snug fit so they shut gently with a push – really nothing seemed to be too much trouble.

Sarah Bacon May 2007

When we decided to replace our existing kitchen (and enlarge it to make it a combined kitchen/family room) we were recommended to contact Fraser James. The quality and finish of the kitchen is amazing and we spend most of our time now in the kitchen/family room which has transformed our house.We have also had wardrobes and furniture made for our daughter Katherine’s bedroom and again the quality and finish is excellent and it has transformed the room. It really is a pleasure to deal with such a friendly and efficient company and we would have no hesitation in recommending Fraser James – you will not be disappointed.

From the minute we met Pete O’Neill we couldn’t help but be impressed by his knowledge and infectious enthusiasm! Simply nothing was too much trouble and we had no hesitation in leaving Pete and his excellent team to remove the existing kitchen and install our new kitchen, whilst we went away for a 2 weeks holiday! He also recommended and managed all of the other associated trades; electrician, plumber, floor and wall tiler and painter who form part of his excellent team.

Richard and Sally Goodenough, April 2007

Our new kitchen is wonderful and all our visitors comment on the quality and design of the furniture. The attention to detail of the fitting was superb and the whole process was well scheduled and completed in a timely fashion. Even the small changes that we asked for during the fitting were carried out without any affect on the timescale and the staff were all very competent and polite. We would have no hesitation in recommending Fraser James and would certainly use them again.

Paul and Basia Lee December, 2006

Thankyou so much for our fabulous kitchen. We were expecting to have a stressful time when the kitchen was being fitted but we were completely wrong. Everyone involved with the kitchen was friendly, polite and obviously very experienced. We would not hesitate to recommend you and would definitely use you again ourselves. So again, thank you and we will now enjoy our kitchen to the full!

Brendan and Michelle Heenan, May 2006

We made the significant decision to completely replace our kitchen which meant considerable time seeing lots of different kitchen companies. Fraser James stood out a mile in terms of flexibility and understanding what we wanted. The price was also competitive in terms of what was being provided. Having made the decision to proceed with Fraser James, we watched with interest to see whether they delivered on their promises, particularly relating to quality and ‘hassle factor’ during the installation process.

We can honestly say that they delivered on both counts. During the installation process, they came when they said they were going to come, all the people involved were charming and they made it as hassle free as is possible in the circumstances. They also co-ordinated all the work including third party trades such as the flooring and decorating. Above all, they were flexible throughout the fitting process since, even with the best design, issues arise once fitting commences and decisions need to be made, particularly in a complex kitchen.

In terms of quality, the finished kitchen is excellent and exceeded our expectations. We were so pleased they have since made us a bespoke kitchen table which has completed the icing on the cake.

All in all, it has been a great experience and we would not hesitate to recommend Fraser James.

Wendy and James Sparrow, October 2005

We are delighted with the kitchen and have received many compliments from visitors. Your craftsmen, ably led by Adam, have done a fine job. Thank you very much for all your excellent work that has really set-off this house to perfection.

JRMcL Rayner, September 2005

I am delighted with my kitchen and please convey to all your staff my appreciation of the quality of their work. Many thanks.

Barbara Burton, July 2005

I wanted to write to say a massive thank you for doing such a fantastic job on our bedroom wardrobes. You have also been exceptionally generous with us.

As ever, the craftsmanship is excellent and your fitters’ such a pleasure to have around the house – they always tidy up and are so cheerful!

Anyhow, please use us for any references that you may need – we will always rave to anyone about you and your team. John and I are currently discussing Phase 3 of Fraser James which is likely to be our Boot Room now that the new boiler is in. Many thanks again – you’re a star!
