Ten Good Reasons for Doing It Yourself!

Spring is in the air and our thoughts turn towards home improvement! For many, the natural reaction is to immediately seek help from a builder – and at times this may well be the best course of action. But there are also many things that can be done by homeowners themselves, for example fitting our great range of DIY furniture, replacement wardrobe doors or replacement kitchen doors. Have a browse through this website to get some ideas of what is possible!

Too much clutter!

At DIY Homefit we were amused to read a recent article in BBC’s magazine about how people have too much clutter! Apparently we all have “more stuff than we could ever need – kit we don’t use, toys we don’t play with, and clothes we don’t wear.”

DIY Homefit launches new EXPRESS range

DIY Homefit are delighted to announce that we have just launched a new range of replacement kitchen doors! The DIY Homefit EXPRESS range is so-called because the products are able to be fast-tracked through the factory to reach you more quickly.

Ten Thousand Bedrooms!

Don’t Spend Too Much Time in the Kitchen!

At DIY Homefit we were intrigued to read a recent article in The Telegraph that the more time people spend preparing meals, the greater their risk of health problems linked with heart disease, such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol. This was the conclusion of a recent study, led by Dr Brad Appelhans, of Rush University Medical Centre in Chicago.

Sleeping Beautifully!

At DIY Homefit we enjoyed Christmas and New Year, including the obligatory pantomime. Oh yes we did! We’ve already mentioned Cinderella in another recent blog but another of our favourites is Sleeping Beauty. Imagine waking up after 100 years! What would be the first thing you would want to see? Definitely not a bedroom needing refurbishment we assume.

Kitchen Drawers with a Difference

Every year in Las Vegas, a major event takes place that you may not have heard of before. It’s the “KBIS” – The Kitchen and Bath Industry Show, the world’s largest international tradeshow event dedicated to its industry. KBIS is an inspiring, interactive showcase of new products for kitchens and bathrooms, including kitchen appliances, kitchen cabinets, and kitchen accessories.

Driving Home for Christmas!

It’s that time of year when everyone is all over the place! Everywhere you go there are people. Whether they are shopping or socialising or just out walking, Christmas is definitely not a time to escape people!  At DIY Homefit we confess that we find it fascinating watching groups of people during the festive season and trying to work out how they “belong” together. Are they out and about genuinely enjoying themselves – or just desperately trying to pass the time?!
