Good to Know
> 🏠 **Full kitchen update?** Bundle it with other small jobs - catches, door adjustments, hinges. Get the whole kitchen refreshed in one visit. **Old holes showing?** Wood filler dries in an hour, then you can paint over it to match your cupboards. Or position new handles to cover the old holes. **Soft-close cupboards** still need handles fitted the same way - no special considerations. **Updating from knobs to handles** (or vice versa) means new holes. I'll fill the old ones so they don't show.
Frequently Asked Questions about Cupboard handle replacement in Ottery St Mary
Do I need to buy the replacement handles first?
Yes - I fit handles you supply. Choose the style you want, buy enough for all the cupboards you're changing, and have them ready when I visit. I'll fit them all properly.
What if the new handles don't match the old screw holes?
Common problem when updating handles. If the new ones use different spacing, I can fill the old holes and drill new ones. Or position the new handle to cover the old holes. Either way, I'll make it work.
Can you replace all the handles in my kitchen?
Absolutely - that's the usual job. Replacing a whole kitchen's worth takes 30-45 minutes depending on how many you've got. Much faster than doing them yourself one by one.
Will the old screw holes show if I'm changing handle styles?
Depends on the new handle size and position. Larger handles often cover old holes. If they don't, I can fill the holes with wood filler, which you can paint over. Or position handles to hide them.
My old handles keep coming loose - will new ones fix it?
If the screws holes are stripped, new handles with fresh holes solve it. If you're reusing the same holes, I might need to fix them first (longer screws or filled holes). Either way, they'll be secure when I'm done.
