The flat pack format is not just used in bedroom furniture, because even fitted kitchens largely arrive flat packed nowadays. Certain kitchen manufacturers send out the kitchen base units fully assembled whilst some flat pack everything. You would have to be a pretty self-assured DIY-er to take on the sizeable job of piecing together a complete flat packed kitchen, so your best option will be to bring in a kitchen specialist or at the very least a competent South Shields carpenter and joiner. With kitchens it is vital that everything is assembled correctly, or else complications are likely to crop up down the line.
