Low-cost kitchen makeovers come to Chesterfield with new Dream Doors showroom

04 September 2015

Residents of Chesterfield, Mansfield and the surrounding areas are now able to get a kitchen makeover for less than half the cost of a full kitchen re-fit, with the launch of a new Dream Doors kitchen showroom.

The new showroom is located at 197 Sheffield Road, Chesterfield and was opened today (3 September) by the Mayor of Chesterfield, Barry Bingham, with beverages, canapés and a raffle draw in aid of local charities Chesterfield Royal Hospital Ophthalmic Department, Sight Support Derbyshire and the Nenna Kind Cancer Support Drop In Centre.

There is additional launch fun planned for the new showroom, with bread baking demoes, cupcake decorating and a kids colouring competition also taking place in store. The new branch will be managed by local residents Mark Holmes and his wife Rachael, both of whom have had long careers with the Post Office / Royal Mail.

“I’ve always loved interiors and looking at different styles of room, so I’m excited about changing people’s kitchens with Dream Doors,” said Mark Holmes. “The kitchen is probably the most important room in the whole house, as people spend so much of their time there. At Dream Doors we can install a fresh new kitchen within 48 hours, replacing the doors and work surfaces for a fraction of the cost of a full re-fit. Kitchen makeovers are popular all over the UK and I’m sure they will be equally so in Chesterfield”.

Dream Doors is the UK’s leading kitchen makeover firm, with a presence on 58 high streets across the country. It transforms old and dated kitchens by replacing doors, worktops and drawer fronts, saving time and money. Dream Doors MD, Troy Tappenden believes the on-going demand for kitchen makeovers will extend to Chesterfield:

“The interest in kitchen makeovers shows no sign of abating – people want lovely kitchens they can be proud of, but do not want the cost and hassle of a full re-fit. Mark and Rachael are local people and with the support of Dream Doors HQ, can make Chesterfield one of our flagship showrooms.”

Mark had spent most of his career working in the Post Office, but had always wanted to work for himself under a franchise system such as Dream Doors:

“Dream Doors seems like such a sensible business model, with proven success stories all over the UK. I love the fact that I will be my own boss, yet retain the support of people that know the industry inside out. We offer a wide range of styles, as well as many appliances and white goods, so are able to offer customers a memorable kitchen – I’m so excited that our showroom is finally open and ready for business.”

Mark is offering his customers a fantastic opening deal of a FREE oven, hob & extractor on all orders over £3,000 (t’s & c’s apply).
