Recently i'v been using my supplier for kitchen design as they offer a free home visit and measuring service. I get the call from the customer arange a date and time. They go and measure up, ring me when its been drawn with a cost for the goods, I pick the drawing up and go and see the customer with a price.
After 2 or 3 failed enquierys a rang the last customer up just to see how the designer had been with them. The lady who i spoke to told me he was only there best part of half an hour and couldn't wait to get away. He told the customer what they SHOULD have and not customer telling them what she wanted. She wasn't impresed..
The whole point of this thread is that i would like to try to measure and design my own kitchens to cut out the middle man so to speak.
If anyone has any advice or 1st hand knowladge on kitchen cad software i would be greatfull for some help.
I have autocad 2010 on my laptop and sketch up 8 but not sure if these are suitable for what i want. Auto cad was put on with all intentions of enrolling for collage last saturday but due to work commitments couldn't afford the one day a week at collage.
Any advice on courses or if someone could offer some hands on knowlegde would be very helpfull.
